Isolation and Characterization of Actinomycetes with Special Reference

Actinomycetes are well known as secondary metabolites producers and of high pharmacological and commercial interest. In this book the following items are described and illustrated in details: Isolation characterization and identification of different actinomycetes from rhizospheric soil of some cultivated plants. 2- Evaluation of the potentialities of some actinomycetes for production of IAA as phytohormone L-glutaminase and antibiotics. 3- Detection of the most active antibiotics produced by actinomycetes as immunosuppressive agents. 4- Elucidation of the chemical structure of the most active immunosuppressive antibiotic compound produced by the active isolate.
