Antibacterial and Cytotoxic Activities of Crude Ethyl Acetate Extract of Streptomyces sp. FEAI-1 Isolated From Soil Samples of Rajshahi, Bangladesh

Abstract: The present study was aimed to isolate and investigate actinomycetes having antimicrobial and cytotoxic activities from soil samples of Mirzapur, Rajshahi, Bangladesh. Total 27 bacteria were isolated and initial screening found that Streptomyces species have low to moderate antagonistic property against various pathogenic bacteria and among them EFAI-1was quite interesting. The antimicrobial activity of crude ethyl acetate extract obtained from EFAI-1was determined using broth-dilution method against Bacillus … Show more

“…The comparison of our findings to the results of an earlier study reveals that the crude ethyl acetate extract of Streptomyces sp. FEAI-1 showed a notably higher degree of inhibition against both S. aureus and B. cereus , with MIC and MBC values comprised in the range of 15.6–125 μ g/ml and 62.5–250 μ g/ml, respectively [ 45 ]. It might be due to the difference of the cultural condition used in the experiments which had an effect on the production of active metabolites.…”

“…The antibacterial activity of the crude compounds was tested using the standard disc diffusion method [ 71 , 72 ]. The filter paper disks (6 mm in diameter) containing crude compounds at 50 μg/disc were placed on the MHA lawn with test microorganisms (0.5 McFarland standard).…”
