[Study of active secondary metabolites of Streptomyces levis isolated from north west soils of Iran and their in vitro and in vivo antibacterial effects]

ABSTRACT

Background: Streptomyces levis is a member of Actinomycetes family. Chemical compounds extracted from this bacterium have been used as antibiotics, anti-tumoral, anti-bacterial, anti-fungal, antiviral, anticancer factors. The purpose of this study‚ was to investigate different metabolites of Streptomyces strains isolated from north west soils, of Iran and antimicrobial effects of them
