conclusions the streptomyces sp. suk 25 culturing was optimized using thronton media, at ph 7 and aeration of 140 rpm. further isolation and identification of bioactive compounds will develop anti-mrsa therapeutics. materials and methods disc diffusion and minimum inhibitory concentration (mic) assay were used to determine the antibacterial activity of streptomyces sp. isolates. optimization of...

Free-living amoebae (FLA) belonging to Acanthamoeba and Sappinia genera as well as Balamuthia mandrillaris and Naegleria fowleri species are aerobic, mitochondriate, eukaryotic protists that occur worldwide and can potentially cause infections in humans and other animals (Visvesvara and Maguire, 2006; Visvesvara et al., 2007). Due to the fact that these amoebae have the ability to exist as free...

antimicrobial activity of different culture extract of oudemansiella sp grown on liquid medium (mygp) were tested. different fungi (c. albicans, c. lipolytica, saccharomyces cervisiea, cladosporium herbarum, and aspergillus niger) and bacteria (microccocus luteus, e. coli, staphylococcus aureus, and staphylococcus epidermidis) were used as test organisms. various antimicrobial assay methods inc...

The survival of a strain of Legionella pneumophila (Lp-1) inoculated in artificial water microcosms was investigated with and without an amoebal host and varying environmental conditions, such as biofilm formation, amount of nutrients and incubation temperature. The results obtained using short (micromethod) and long (macromethod) term methods showed that L. pneumophila Lp-1 dies rapidly at 4 d...
