Abstract:In the current study, fungi from the mangrove ecosystem of Mumbai were isolated and their metabolites were screened for antibacterial potential. Two weeks old broth and mycelium were extracted using chloroform and methanol. Antibacterial property of solvent extracts was evaluated at various concentrations (2 – 10 µg/ml) against Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus subtilis, Enterococcus faecium, Enterococcus faecalis, Klebsiella pneumonia and Escherichia coli, by well diffusion method. Fungi isolated were identifie… Show more
