In the screening for actinomycetes with anticancer property, fifty two isolates were isolated using a starch casein agar medium from twenty marine sediment samples collected from the southeast coastal regions of India. Ten morphologically different isolates were selected and screened for cytotoxic active isolate by Brine shrimp lethality assay. One of the most potent isolate was selected for id...

conclusions this study showed that the collected soil from studied areas was rich of keratinophilic fungi and actinomycetes, therefore hygiene protocol should be taken to prevent the spread of pathogenic and saprophytes fungi in the environment of susceptible person. background keratinophilic fungi are a group of fungi that colonize in various keratinous substrates and degrade them to the compo...

Actinomycetes play an important role in the decomposition of various organic materials and replenish the supply of nutrients in the soil. They also produce many secondary metabolites possessing antimicrobial properties. The present study was conducted to determine the antibacterial and enzyme producing capabilities of soil Actinomycetes isolated from Nahargarh hill area, Jaipur, Rajasthan, Indi...
