Isolation, Molecular Identification, and Phylogenetic Analysis of Antimicrobial Agents Producing Actinomycetes in Farming Saline Soils of Qom City, (Iran)
Background and Objectives: Actinomycetes are Gram-positive and filamentous bacteria that are the major microorganism in soil. According to studies, three quarters of all known antibiotics are produced by actinomycetes. The present study aimed to investigate actinomycetes in farming saline soils of different regions of Qom province in terms of antibacterial property. Methods: In this experime...
متن کاملIsolation of Endophytic Actinomycetes from Catharanthes roseus (L.) G. Don Leaves and Their Antimicrobial Activity
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...
متن کاملIsolation of biologically active Actinomycetes from untouched soils: a case study from Karaj district, Iran
Actinomycetes are a source of a broad variety of secondary metabolites with diverse biological activities, such as antifungi, antibiotics and antitumorals; many of which have been developed for clinical use. In this study, 34 actinomycetes from untouched soils were isolated from Alborz Province-Iran. Evaluation ofantifungal and anti bacterial activities of these isolates, demonstrated the capab...
متن کاملSaline Waters: a Potential Source of Actinomycetes Possessing Antibacterial Activity
Microorganisms growing in saline environments represent an important source of biologically active compounds. Such environments are distributed all over the world and mainly include oceans, coastal and deep sea locations, soda lakes, soda deserts as well as artificial salterns. Many antibacterial, antifungal, anti-tumor, cytotoxic and photo protective compounds have been isolated till date from...
متن کاملScreening of antibacterial producing actinomycetes from sediments of the Caspian Sea
Actinomycetes are interesting as a main producer of secondary metabolites and industrial antibiotics from marine environments. A total of 44 strains of actinomycetes were isolated from Caspian Sea sediments at a depth of 5-10 m. Preliminary screening was done using cross-streak method against 2 gram-positive and 4 gram-negative pathogen bacteria. The most potent strains MN2, MN3, MN38, MN39, MN...
