Actinomycetes are biotechnologically important for their unrivalled capacity to produce
bioactive secondary metabolites. Although thousands of antibiotics have been discovered
from actinomycetes, these represent only a small fraction of the entire reservoir. Thus,
screening of actinomycetes from poorly studied environment is a valuable attempt. In the
present study, an effort was made to isolate, identify and evaluate the antimicrobial activities
of actinomycetes from Tanjung Lumpur Mangrove Forest of Pahang, Malaysia; an …
