Abstract


The ann ot this work was designed to stud) the population density of halophilic bacteria 1 halobacteria 1 and their biotechnological aspects. in a' anet: of Egyptian saline site . Ten samples were collected in summer 1997 and summer
1998. from the Mediterranean seet .::oast. Red-sea c•oasl. Alexandria-port-said Malahat site and Vvadi-1\,atrun area.
The following important results were obtamed:

1- For all tested samples. the pH 1 alues 11ere .::lassitied intn groups: gi•oup for neutral sample' het, een 1- 1!-- I) 1: group II tX.3-9t: group Ill for sliglltl) ranging bel\1een
