Here we describe experiments on the recovery 31 and identification of 23 species of bacterial hypobarophiles (def., growth under hypobaric 32 conditions of approximately 1-2 kPa) in 11 genera capable of growth at 0.7 kPa. Hypobarophilic 33 bacteria, but not archaea or fungi, were recovered from soil and non-soil ecosystems. The 34 highest numbers of hypobarophiles were recovered from Arctic soil, Siberian permafrost, and 35 human saliva. Isolates were identified through 16S rRNA sequencing to belong to the genera 36 Carnobacterium, Exiguobacterium, Leuconostoc, Paenibacillus, and Trichococcus. -

Antimicrobial Activities of Some Streptomyces Isolated from Garden Soil Samples and Fish Pond Water in Futa

It is estimated these bacteria synthesize more than 7,000 metabolites. About 80% of these are made by members of the genus Streptomyces. Streptomyces spp. is known as producers of several bioactive metabolites which has antibiotic, antiparasitic, antitumor, insecticide, herbicide, etc. Objectives: Determine the antimicrobial activities of Streptomyces isolates and compare the efficacy of the antimicrobial activities of Streptomycetes with selected commercial antimicrobial agents. Materials and methods: Collection of samples and test organisms; physicochemical screening; antimicrobial assay (co-culture method); antibiotics sensitivity test (disc-diffusion assay). Result: Streptomyces griseoflavus, Streptomyces parvus and Streptomyces albidus were isolated from dry soil while Streptomyces vinaceus and Streptomyces globiosporus from moist-fresh soil and fish pond water used for cultivation of cat fish Clarias garienpinus respectively. Out of these five (5) isolates isolated, 3 isolates (60%) exhibited antibacterial activity against the following pathogenic, nosocomial organisms: Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Salmonella typhi, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus aureus, Candida spp, Aspergillus fumigatus, Aspergillus flavus, Aspergillus saprophyticus, and Trichoderma spp respectively. S. griseoflavus demonstrated antibacterial activity against K. pneumoniae, Trichoderma spp and Candida spp. S. albidus against S. -
