Abstract

A microbial strain, SLO-105, isolated from Lake Oubeira sediment was screened for its antimicrobial
activity against pathogenic bacteria and fungi. The strain showed broad-spectrum antibacterial activity against Gram-positive bacteria Staphylococcus aureus MRSA, Bacillus subtilus, Micrococcus leutus, Streptococcus fecalis and fungi Aspergillus niger and Rodotorulla mucilaginosa. However, no activity of the strain was observed against Gram negative bacteria Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas
aeruginosa as well as on fungi Candida albicans. Analysis of 16S rDNA sequence and the morphological and physiological characteristics of the strain suggested that the isolate belonged to Streptomyces genus.
