| Popis: |
The present study was conducted to determine antibacterial activity of ethyl acetate extract ob tained from the fermentation broth of bioactive Streptomyces species MPPO - 02 previously isolated from a rhizosphere soil of Mahishi, Karnataka, India. Agar well diffusion assay was performed to investigate inhibitory effect of ethyl acetate extract against a total of 15 clinical isolates from burn, dental caries and urinary tract infection. The extract was found inhibitory against all test bacteria but to a varied extent. Gram positive bacteria were found more susceptible to extract when compared to Gram ne gative bacteria. The isolate MPPO - 02 can be exploited for the development of agents active against pathogenic microorganisms. Further studies on purification of active principles from solvent extract, their characterization and inhibitory activity are to b e carried out. |
