Popis: The main objective of this investigation was to characterize a collection of actinomycetes strains isolated from unexplored polluted ecosystems and to evaluate their antimicrobial potential in order to discover interesting bioactive compounds. Based on morphological and culture characters, 32 different strains were isolated: 20 strains from compost heap, seven strains from manure, and five strains from waste water. As expected, the genus Streptomyces was the most prevalent followed by the genus Micromonospora. Analysis of the antimicrobial activities of the isolated strains showed that those from compost heap were more efficient against the tested microorganisms (Candida albicans, Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, Staphylococcus aureus, Acinetobacter baumannii, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Escherichia coli). Several bioactive compounds were identified by liquid chromatography (LC) combined with mass spectrometry (MS) and then analyzed by both MEDINA's database, which contains the most common secondary metabolites, and Dictionary of Natural Products ChapmanHall. Many interesting well-known and unknown biomolecules were identified. Quinomycin A and Daidzein were the most fascinating compounds isolated, respectively, by Streptomyces sp. WW2 and Streptomyces sp. WW4. The most active strain was identified based on 16S rDNA's sequences and it seems to be a new strain. The crude extract of the strain CH12 was analyzed and the UV absorption spectra and mass spectra (MS) of the main active compound were reported. It's an interesting compound (possible purpuromycin) with the molecular formula C26H18O13.
