Background: Actinomycetes show an active role in microbial disease control and antimicrobial metabolism production and were shown the greatest potentialities as sources of antimicrobial agents. The past few decades, an extensive literature has accumulated on the production of bioactive compounds from actinomycetes, particularily genus Streptomyces.
Methods: The actinomycetes were isolated with starch casein nitrate (SCN) agar medium.
