Antimicrobial activity and Characterization of Marine bacteria

Abstract: Marine bacteria were isolated from seawater was collected from different coastal areas of the Tamilnadu Sea. The antimicrobial activities of these bacteria were investigated. Ethyl acetate extracts of marine bacterial fermentation were screened for antimicrobial activities using the method of agar diffusion. The results showed that 25 strains of the isolates have antimicrobial activity. The proportion of active bacteria associated with isolated from seawater. The active marine bacteria were assigned to the gen… Show more

“…Taking into account the ability of microalgae to combat pathogenic bacteria found throughout the different aquatic systems, they are considered one of the most important sources of antimicrobial molecules, including proteins, vitamins, fatty acids, pigments, etc [61]. In addition, microalgae coexist with other aquatic organisms creating competitive relationships that provoke them to synthetize or secrete several substances and/or molecules in order to inhibit their competitors [62].…”

“…The host plants are habitat for endophytic bacteria due to symbiotic mutualism as endophytic bacteria get nutrition which is the vitamin, polysaccharide and fatty acid from its host plant. On the other hand, the bacteria produce several products such as amino acid, antibiotics, and the toxin which are beneficial for growth, metabolism, and increasing chemical resistant of the host plant (Jeganathan et al 2013). The infection due to pathogenic bacteria making the chemical resistant which have a selfprotect for host plant become necessary.…”

“…Secondary metabolites of sponge microbes are adaptive and play key roles in their host defense mechanism against pathogens, predators and competitors, in addition to in fouling process and competition for space and food resources. Nowadays, it is known that marine sponges and their associated microorganisms are economically important because they produce the most active bioactive compounds that are potentially useful for human in pharmaceutical industry sector, for instance as antimicrobial, antifungal, antioxidant, anticancer and anti-inflammatory agents (Jeganathan et al, 2013). Bioactive compounds mostly found in sponge symbiont microorganisms are generally derived from alkaloids, terpenes, terpenoids and peptides (Mehbub et al, 2014).…”
