The killing rates of the active extracts were also elucidated using standard procedures. The two extracts NO64 and NO53 showed rapid bactericidal activity against B. pumilus ATCC 14884 and Serratia marcens with a 3Log10 reduction in counts within 6 hours at 3.75 mg/ml and 5 mg/ml respectively. In conclusion, the ethyl acetate extract of these marine actinomycetes strains possess strong bactericidal and bacteriostatic activities against Gram negative organisms and can be therapeutically useful in the treatment of bacterial infections which are mainly caused by Gram negative bacteria.]]> Tue 23 May 2023 15:34:05 SAST ]]> Prevalence of Listeria pathogens in effluents of some wastewater treatment facilities in the Eastern Cape Province of South Africa https://commons.ufh.ac.za/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:30747 Thu 13 May 2021 06:17:36 SAST ]]>
