Popis: Awareness of the consumer has increased the demand of safe and chemical-free foods, and consequently it has increased the demand of antibacterial bioactive compounds. In the present study, antibacterial compound produced by a local bacterial isolate NSD MTCC 10072, showing antagonistic activity against six human pathogens, was isolated, partially purified and characterized. Maximum production of antibacterial compound was observed between 51 and 60 h after seeding. The antibacterial activity of the compound was found to be thermostable up to 80 °C for 60 min and its efficacy was very good between pH 4 and 12. Minimum inhibitory concentration (25.84 µg/µl) of the antibacterial compound was observed against Streptococcus aureus NICM 2901. GC–MS analysis of the bacterium secreted chemical compound (C11H18N2O2) was used to identify the antimicrobial compound as Pyrrolo(1,2-a) pyrazine-1,4-dione, hexahydro-3-(2-methylpropyl). In Silico studies showed that the antimicrobial compound is non-toxic, non-irritating and followed Lipinski-type properties which suggested that the compound could be used as potential drug against different human pathogens.
