ABSTRACT

The antibacterial producing properties of Actinomycetes were carried out using soil samples collected from different locations at Osun State University, Osogbo, main campus. The soil samples were collected from twelve (12) diffeferent locations within the study site. The samples were cultured aseptically by inoculating each samples on Starch Casein agar and incubated at 30oC. Identification and characterization were carried out by morphology, microscopic and biochemical tests. The production of pigments on plates were also observed. Actinomycetes isolates were presumptively identified. All Actinomycetes isolates were screened for the production of bioactive compounds. The preliminary screening was done using cross streak method while secondary screening was done using agar well diffusion method as shown in Table 4 and 5 respectively. Both screening test reveals the ability of six (6) Actinomycetes isolates to be active against three (3) out of seven (7) bacteria isolated from the body of HIV positive patients (which was used as test bacteria)
