Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue is the continuation of our previous Special Issue, entitled "Biotechnology of Cold-Adapted Bacteria and Marine Bacteria", which was published in 2021:
Permanent or transient cold environments are prevalent on our planet. Indeed, besides the polar and alpine areas, a large portion of seawater has a temperature below 15 °C. We are approaching the study of the microbiome that thrives in these habitats, uncovering a “world of opportunities” for biotechnologists.
This Special Issue aims to report the cutting-edge applications of microorganisms isolated from sea and/or from cold environments, their enzymes, and their chemical diversity in different fields of modern biotechnologies, such as (and not limited to) the following:
- Food applications;
- Detergents and the cleaning industry;
- Environmental biotechnologies (wastewater treatments and bioremediation);
- Biofuels and energy production;
- Molecular as well as structural biology and recombinant protein production;
- Pharmaceutical and medical industry.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Microorganisms is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2700 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
