Isolation and characterization of halotolerant Streptomyces radiopugnans from Antarctica soil

Isolation and Identification of Streptomyces ramulosus from Soil and Determination of Antimicrobial Property of its Pigment

Background and objective: Pigment production by microorganisms is important due to more rapid growth, higher efficiency, easier extraction, and antimicrobial effects compared to other methods. The aim of the present study is to isolate and identify antibiotic pigment-producing actinomycetes from the soil of the Persian Gulf and to evaluate the antibiotic activity of their pigments in the second...

Isolation and characterization of plasmids from Streptomyces.

In view of the importance of actinomycetes in the production of antibiotics, it would be useful to find plasmids in these organisms in order to construct molecular breeding systems. Since the first discovery of plasmid involvement in antibiotic production", several plasmids associated with the production of antibiotics have been found in Streptomyces (references are listed in AKAGAWA et al.-')....

Isolation and characterization of a phage active against streptomyces griseus

isolation, characterization and selection of avermectin-producing streptomyces avermitilis strains from soil samples

conclusions from the results, it was concluded that agricultural lands around pakistan council of scientific and industrial research (pcsir) campus lahore were rich sources of industrially important streptomyces, especially s. avermitilis. results the 10 selected isolates were identified as the avermectin-producing strain by fermentation and characterized on isp2 medium for aerial and reverse s...

Isolation, Characterization and Selection of Avermectin-Producing Streptomyces avermitilis Strains From Soil Samples

BACKGROUND Streptomyces avermitilis, belonging to Actinomycetes, is specialized for production of avermectin, used as an anthelmintic and insecticidal agent. It is mostly found in soil and its isolation is very crucial for medically important avermectin production. OBJECTIVES In the present study, 10 bacterial isolates lacking antimicrobial activities were isolated from the soil samples colle...
