Abstract
Moderate and extreme halophilic microorganisms have been isolated from guar gum solutions dissolved in potash brine for use in sylvite froth flotation. Tentative identifications have been made of vibrio, Halobacterium, and Halococcus species. Reinoculation of these isolates into guar gum solutions has shown that they are not carbohydrate-utilizing strains, but instead metabolize the contaminating proteins present in guar.
