Abstract

Actinomycetes are a group of gram-positive, filamentous bacteria that are known for their ability to produce bioactive compounds with antimicrobial properties. In this study, environmental Actinomycetes were isolated from the desert soil and evaluated for their anti-microbial potential. The method involved the isolation and identification of Actinomycetes, followed by screening for anti-microbial activity against various pathogens. The results indicated that the Actinomycetes from the desert exhibited promising anti-microbial activity, suggesting their potential for the development of new antibiotics. This study highlights the importance of exploring unique environmental sources for novel bioactive compounds.
