BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Uttarakhand region is less explored, but possess a great biodiversity. This diversity can be explored for isolation and characterization of new actinomycetes strains for seeking antimicrobial molecules. It can therefore be predicted that novel bioactive metabolite producing actinomycetes can be discovered to combat multidrug resistant bacterial pathogens. MATERIALS AN...

Recent findings from culture-dependent and culture-independent methods have demonstrated that indigenous marine actinomycetes exist in the oceans and are widely distributed in different marine ecosystems. There is tremendous diversity and novelty among the marine actinomycetes present in marine environments. Progress has been made to isolate novel actinomycetes from samples collected at differe...

the cypress family, cupressaceae, has a global dispersion. currently, endophytic microorganisms from plants are being investigated for their diversity and bioactivities. here, we aimed at exploration and characterization of cultivable endophytic fungi from foliar tissues of cupressaceae, i.e. cupressus arizonica, c. sempervirens var. cereiformis, c. sempervirens var. fastigiata, juniperus excel...

Microorganisms found in extreme environments have attracted a great deal of attention, due to the production by such microorganisms of various natural compounds and their specialized mechanisms for adaption to extreme environments1-4). But relatively little research work has been done on actinomycetes found in extreme environments5). For example, the nutritional requirements of actinomycetes un...

the purpose of this research was to study the antimicrobial activities of the endophytic fungi from sesbania grandiflora (l.) pers. the endophytic fungi were isolated from branches and leaves of sesbania grandiflora (l.) pers., and sixty nine isolates were obtained. all isolates were screened for antibacterial and antifungal activities. the indicator organisms were 4 bacteria including staphylo...

In the past decades, researchers and scientists have paid increasing attention to discover novel antibiotics anticancer agents in combating infection cancer diseases. It is believed that endophytic actinomycetes from medicinal plants provide a resourful niches for new compounds with significant bioactive properties. present study, we first time assessed antibacterial cytotoxic activities of ass...

Actinomycetes are considered as one of the most diverse groups of filamentous bacteria capable of thriving into different types of ecological niches due to their bioactive potential. The main objective of the present study was Isolation and Screening of Actinomycetes from soil of Dal Lake of Kashmir region and characterized for morphological identification and evaluated for antibacterial activi...

Actinomycetes were isolated from eight samples of two different habitats, i.e., garden soil and cultivated field soil. Isolation of actinomycetes was carried out on soil extract agar medium using serial dilution method and forty seven isolates were obtained. All these actinomycetes were then assessed for their antifungal activity against two fungal pathogens i.e., Candida albicans and Aspergill...
