چکیده
A new antibiotic designated MM 14201 has been detected in a culture of Streptomyces sp. NCIB 11813. Methods for the production and purification of MM 14201 are described. Biological evaluation has shown it has broad spectrum antibacterial activity being most effective against Serratia and Pseudomonas sp. Structural studies are reported which have demonstrated MM 14201 is a new epoxyquinone derivative.

The application of new probiotics is a good strategy in the biological control of infectious diseases in aquaculture. Approximately 100 marine actinobacteria isolates were obtained from 10 sediment samples of shrimp farms. Heat treatment of sediment samples resulted in a selective reduction of the non actinobacterial heterotrophic microflora. Starch nitrate agar medium exhibited more efficacy t...
