Two strains of obligately barophilic bacteria were isolated from a sample of the Growth of the isolates under conditions of 0.1 to 100 MPa at 10C.
A barophile is an organism that needs a high-pressure environment in order to grow. Barophiles are a type of an extremophile.
A piezophile (or barophile) is an organism that is adapted to live at On Earth, the hydrostatic pressure gradient is approximately 10 MPa/km.
