Streptomyces spp. (Lob18.2b), isolated from soil sample from Everest Base Camp, was obtained from Research Laboratory for Biotechnology and Biochemistry (RLABB). The isolate was found to inhibit Salmonella paratyphi, Salmonella typhi, Proteus mirabilis, Proteus vulgaris, Shigella sonnei, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Klebsiella oxytoca, Escherichia coli, Bacillus subtilis and Staphylococcus aureus on ...

It was proposed to find out the optimum environmental conditions and nutritional requirements for highest growth -regulating substance and enzyme production by Streptomyces olivaceoviridis. The optimum a-amylase and proteinase activity was at 45'C and 50'C, respectively. The test strain appeared to prefer pH 4.8 and 7.0 for the maximum productivity of a-amylase and proteinase, respectively. The...

During the course of a screening program for new antitumor antibiotics from microorganisms using a unique assay system, wehave found that Streptomyces avellaneus 02-3 produced new chromomycin antibiotics, 02-3D and 02-3G in addition to several knownrelated antibiotics. In this paper, we wish to report the isolation and structural studies of 02-3D and 02-3G. Weutilized the phenomenon of DNA inte...

The cyclodextrin glucanotransferase are extracellular enzymes that can hydrolysis starch as a substrate to cyclodextrin. Encapsulation and immobilization technique of microbial cells within the polymeric network have widespread applications in production enzyme. Bacterial were isolated from soil by serial dilution method. molecular identity was established using 16S rDNA sequence analysis, iden...

background and purpose: cutaneous infections arise from a homogeneous group of keratinophilic fungi, known as dermatophytes. since these pathogenic dermatophytes are eukaryotes in nature, use of chemical antifungal agents for treatment may affect the host tissue cells. in this study, we aimed to evaluate the antifungal activity of actinomyces species against trichophyton mentagrophytes (abbrevi...

background and objectives: in marine actinomycetes, carotenoid production occurs in constitutive, light-dependent or cryptic manner. the present work deals with the fermentative production of carotenoids from marine actinomycetes. materials and methods: marine actinomycetes namely streptomyces strain aqbmm35 was isolated from the marine sponge mycale mytilorum collected from south west coast of...

Toxic metal contamination has serious effects on human health. Crude oil that may contain toxic metals and spills can further contaminate the environment lead to increased exposure. This being case, we chose study bio-production of inexpensive, environmentally safe materials for remediation. Streptomyces sp. MOE6 is a Gram-positive, filamentous bacterium from soil produces an extracellular poly...
