👉 Halobaculum is a type of bacteria that produces halophilic (halo-protective) bacteria, which thrive in environments with high levels of hydrogen ions and low pH. They are found primarily in seawater, but can also be found in freshwater or saltwater environments. Halobaculins are the primary factors responsible for their survival in these conditions, acting as a protective barrier against oxidizing agents like hydrogen peroxide and other halogenated compounds.
