Abstract:BACKGROUND: Increased antibiotic resistant properties of pathogens has led to a pronounced search for new effective antibiotics from microbes in diverse ecological niches. This study focused on isolating actinomycetes from soil of reserved areas and profiling them for antibacterial potentials.METHODS: The isolates (IS-2, IS-4, IS-6, IS-10, IS-14) were assessed for antagonistic activity against ten multi-drug resistant bacterial strains (Gram positive and negative) by cross streak and well diffusion methods.RES… Show more
