Isolation And Characterization Of Marine Actinomycetes For Anti-Infective Activity Towards Pseudomonas aeruginosa PA14

Isolation And Characterization Of Marine Actinomycetes For Anti-Infective Activity Towards Pseudomonas aeruginosa PA14

Marine environment serve as reservoir of vast useful secondary metabolites and at the same time, new anti-infective agents are required to combat antibiotic resistant pathogenic bacteria.Therefore, this research was carried out to screen for anti-infective agents from the environment that are capabl...
