Selective isolation of aerobic Actinomycetes.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The composition of an arginine-glycerol-salt medium (AGS), suitable for the selective isolation of aerobic actinomycetes, was given. When soil samples were treated with calcium carbonate and plated on the AGS medium, higher total and relative plate counts of actinomycetes were obtained than when other media and methods were used.

Endophytic actinomycetes were isolated from surface sterilized leaves of Catharanthes roseus (L.) G. Don offamily Apocynaceae. A total of 38 endophytic actinomycetes were recovered on Starch Casein Agar.Among the 38 isolates 20 morphologically different isolates were screened for antibacterial activity againstBacillus subtilis, Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Pr...

L Glutaminase, a therapeutic enzyme obtained from marine Actinomycetes gains importance because of their adaptability to varied environmental factors. An experimental study was carried out to isolate the L glutaminase producing actinomycetes from the marine sediment of Thoothukudi. Marine sediment sample was collected from six different locations of the Thoothukudi coastal ecosystem, enriched w...

Dear editor,I read with interest article that published entitled *Isolation and identification of bioactive compound producing Rhodococcus spp. isolated from soil samples {IJMCM/5(1) (2015) 463-468}* [1]. Some of the genus such as Nocardia, Gordonia, Mycobacterium and Rhodococcus are in actinomycete family and they are Gram-positive and partially acid-fast. Rhodococcus species usually stain Gra...
متن کاملChemical composition of variants of aerobic actinomycetes.
It has been shown previously that aerobic actinomycetes can be separated into four main groups on the basis of their cell wall composition. Six representatives of aerobic actinomycetes (Nocardia asteroides and Micropolyspora brevicatena, cell wall type IV; N. madurae, Microbispora rosea, cell wall type III; Actinoplanes sp., cell wall type II; Streptomyces griseus, cell wall type I) were subjec...
متن کاملNovel method for selective isolation of actinomycetes.
A new technique for the selective isolation of actinomycetes from natural mixed microbial populations is described. A nutrient agar medium was overlaid with a 0.22- to 0.45-microns-pore cellulose ester membrane filter, and the surface of the filter was inoculated. During incubation, the branched mycelia of the actinomycetes penetrated the filter pores to the underlying agar medium, whereas grow...
