Masters thesis, Universiti Sains Malaysia.
Abstract
One hundred and eighty bacterial isolates were obtained from marine samples
collected from four different sites around Penang Island. A total of 18.3 % of the
isolates secreted extracellular compounds which exhibited antimicrobial activity against
at least one of the test microorganisms. The isolate SBm-71 which exhibited the highest
antimicrobial activity was selected as a potential producer with a maximum
antimicrobial activity of 21.5 U/ml. Isolate SBm-71 which was identified as Bacillus
pulvifaciens secreted only extracellular antimicrobial compound(s).
