Abstract

Potential Actinomycetes produced biologically significant secondary metabolites in abundance in non-agricultural farm. Actinomycetes were isolated from soil on a non-agricultural farm in Miraj, Sangli District, Maharashtra, with only six isolates chosen for this study. Streptomyces spp. isolates demonstrated strong antimicrobial activity against human pathogenic strains of Salmonella typhi, Salmonella paratyphi A, and Salmonella paratyphi B pathogens. The isolate INA-53 had excellent antimicrobial activity against enteric fever pathogens zone of inhibition were observed at the highest level (16.0-23.0 mm). According to BLAST analysis, INA - 53 is related to Streptomyces parvulus Actinomycetes and the Actenobacteria class. As a result, the powerful INA - 53 isolate is extremely effective at producing bioactive compounds.
