Dynamic Adsorbents Isolation and Purification of Marine Organisms
ثبت نشده
چکیده
Isolating and purifying new therapeutic agents from plants and marine sources is essential to the continued success of the pharmaceutical industry. One out of four prescription drugs sold in the United States contains active ingredients extracted or derived from plants. 50% of the top selling drug products are derived from natural products. More than 40 different plant species are used, and yet less than 1% of the world’s flora has been screened for biochemical activity, with even less of the marine species explored.

متن کاملIsolation and characterization of bacteria from the lesion of juvenile sea cucumber Holothuria scabra (Jaeger, 1938) with symptom of skin ulceration disease
Echinoderm diseases have attracted little interest in contrast to the other commercial marine organisms. This study reports the pathogenesis pattern of juvenile Holothuria scabra. 11 pure bacteria were isolated from lesions of juvenile H. scabra with the symptoms of skin ulceration disease. Phylogenetic identification based on 16S rRNA gene sequences analysis revealed that they belonged to the ...
