Deinococcus radiodurans is a bacterium, an extremophile and one of the most radiation-resistant organisms known. It can survive cold, dehydration, vacuum, and acid, and therefore is known as a polyextremophile. The Guinness Book Of World Records listed it in January 1998[1] as the world's most radiation-resistant bacterium or lifeform.[2]

The red-coloured bacterium Deinococcus radiodurans can resist 1.5 million rads of gamma radiation, about 3,000 times the amount that would kill a human. The bacteria was first isolated from cans of meat that were subjected to supposedly sterilising doses of radiation in the megarad range.

Deinococcus radiodurans is listed in the Guinness Book of World Records as "the world's toughest bacterium."
