چکیده

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 and methods: variations in the viable count of actinomycetes were accessed in different altitudes. actinomycetes were isolated, indentified and screened for their antibacterial activity. results: the highest viable counts of actinomycetes were recorded in valleys followed by mid hills and high hills. a total of 512 actinomycetes were isolated which were found to belong the 14 different genera of actinomycetes. mainly the genus streptomyces was dominant in all the soil samples. out of 512 isolates recovered, 23.44% exhibited antibacterial activity against one or more tested bacterial pathogens. of these 56.67% showed activity against gram-positive bacteria, 26.67% against gram-negative bacteria while 16.67% showed broad spectrum activity. isolate dv1s and gr9a-5 showed highest antibacterial properties against several multi-drug resistant bacterial pathogens and were identified using polyphasic approach. dv1s and gr9a-5 were found to be most closely related with s. massasporeus nbrc 12796t   and nocardia nova jcm 6044t respectively. conclusion: the results of this study strongly support the idea that the viable count of actinomycetes varied greatly with altitude. the actinomycetes species isolated from valleys, mid hills and high hills possess significant capacity to produce compounds which are active against several drug resistant bacterial pathogens.

Screening of antibacterial producing actinomycetes from sediments of the Caspian Sea

Actinomycetes are interesting as a main producer of secondary metabolites and industrial antibiotics from marine environments. A total of 44 strains of actinomycetes were isolated from Caspian Sea sediments at a depth of 5-10 m. Preliminary screening was done using cross-streak method against 2 gram-positive and 4 gram-negative pathogen bacteria. The most potent strains MN2, MN3, MN38, MN39, MN...
