Thermophile - Wikipedia
A thermophile is an organism—a type of extremophile —that thrives at relatively high temperatures, between 41 and 122 °C (106 and 252 °F). [1][2] Many thermophiles are archaea, though some of them are bacteria and fungi. Thermophilic eubacteria are suggested to have been among the earliest bacteria. [3]
Psychrophiles, Mesophiles, Thermophiles • Microbe Online
2019年11月25日 · Mesophiles “middle loving” are microorganisms with an optimum temperature near 37°C (the body temperature of warm-blooded animals). Mesophiles can grow in the temperature range of 25-40°C. Most of the pathogenic microorganisms and normal human microbiota are mesophiles.

2021年10月7日 · Thermophilic bacteria are those that thrive within high temperatures, usually between 45 and 80 C (113 and 176F) and are found in environments such as hot springs, peat bogs, and near deep-sea hydrothermal vents.
Thermophile - Definition and Examples - Biology Online
2022年6月16日 · Thermophiles are heat-loving organisms that exhibit optimal growth at a temperature above 60ºC or 140ºF. Thus, organisms that grow near deep-sea volcanic vents are likely to be thermophiles.

2020年10月15日 · The travertine terraces in Mammoth Hot Springs host thermophilic Cyanobacteria. The word “Bacteria” is often associated with disease, but only a few kinds of Bacteria cause problems for humans. The other thousands of bacteria, although all simple organisms, play a complex role in Earth’s ecosystems.
Thermophile - an overview | ScienceDirect Topics
Thermophiles are a type of extremophiles including mostly, archaea, bacteria, and some types of molds. They are defined by their ability to survive and grow optimally at temperatures above 45 ℃ (for moderate thermophiles), 65 ℃ (for extreme thermophiles) and 80 ℃ (for hyperthermophiles).
Thermophiles: Definition and Examples - BYJU'S
The term “thermophiles” refers to bacteria that can thrive in temperatures as high as 55°C (minimum 45°C, optimal temperature range 55–65°C, maximum 80°C). Hyper-thermophiles (extreme thermophiles) are microorganisms that can grow even at temperatures as high as 113°C, with 80°C being ideal.
