Exploring the metabolic potential of novel marine Actinobacteria [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
Actinobacteria are filamentous and ubiquitous Gram-positive bacteria with diverse potential to produce significant secondary metabolites, that have end biotechnology applications in medicine, agriculture, environmental and energy sectors. Over the years, the isolation of actinobacteria from terrestrial habitats has resulted in the isolation of the same

Antioxidant activity of newly discovered lineage of marine actinobacteria [PDF]

open access: yesAsian Pacific Journal of Tropical Medicine, 2013
To investigate the antioxidant activity of marine actinobacteria.The content of total phenolics, the level of antioxidant potential by DPPH radical scavenging activity, metal chelating activity, FRAP method, β carotene assay and NO scavenging activity in extract were determined.In all the methods the extract exhibited good scavenging activity except NO

Diversity of cultivable actinobacteria in geographically widespread marine sediments [PDF]

open access: yesAntonie van Leeuwenhoek, 2005
Reports describing actinobacteria isolated from marine environments have been dominated by Micromonospora, Rhodococcus and Streptomyces species. Recent culture-independent studies have shown that marine environments contain a high diversity of actinobacterial species that are rarely, if at all, recovered by cultivation-based methods.

Marine actinobacteria: new opportunities for natural product search and discovery [PDF]

open access: yesTrends in Microbiology, 2007
It is widely accepted that new drugs, especially antibiotics, are urgently required, and that the most propitious source remains natural products. We argue that in exploring new sources of bioactive natural products the marine environment warrants particular attention, in view of the remarkable diversity of microorganisms and metabolic products. Recent

Isolation and Identification of Antibiotic Producing Actinobacteria from the Coast of the Persian Gulf [PDF]

open access: yesBiological Journal of Microorganism, 2022
Introduction: Actinomycetes are filamentous and gram-positive bacteria living as free-living, saprophyte, and sometimes in symbiosis with plants. These bacteria could be isolated from all ecosystems including soil, water, marine sediments and especially ...
