| Abstract | Background Actinomycetes have provided a wealth of bioactive secondary metabolites with interesting activities such as antimicrobial, antiviral and anticancer. The study aims at isolation, characterization and the antimicrobial potentiality of Streptomyces sannanensis SU118 obtained from Phoomdi, a unique habitat of Loktak Lake of Manipur, India. Results An actinomycete strain isolated from Phoomdi soil of Loktak Lake of Manipur, India was identified as Streptomyces sannanensis SU118. It is a Gram-positive filamentous bacterium which exhibits antimicrobial activity only against Gram-positive bacteria, while Gram-negative organisms were not affected. Glucose Soyabean meal broth was found to be the suitable medium for antibiotic production at 28°C for seven days of incubation. The antimicrobial agent produced by the strain was extracted with ethyl acetate as solvent and purified by thin layer chromatography. Screening and bioassay - guided fractionation of the ethyl acetate extract from the culture filtrate led to the isolation of an active potential compound (R f value 0.56) with λmax 275.0 nm which has got the lowest minimum inhibitory concentration (0.5 μg/ml) against Staphylococcus aureus MTCC 96 and Staphylococcus aureus (clinical isolate), whereas highest (3.0 μg/ml) was recorded against Mycobacterium smegmatis MTCC 6 and Bacillus circulans MTCC 8074. Conclusion This study has therefore uncovered the potential of exploring virgin untapped habitats in the Indo-Burma biodiversity hot spot region as reservoir of promising antimicrobial metabolite producer. These results highlighted the scope for further characterization of the metabolite and could be a candidate in the generation of new antimicrobial agents. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
