Abstract
Antibiotic resistance is one of the biggest global challenges of the century. Many pathogens have become resistant to antibiotics due to human misuse and effective ones are in short supply. Discovering potential new antibiotic molecules may help to address the current antibiotic shortage. To this end, the Tiny Earth program, which engages students from around the world to discover potential antibiotic producing microbes from the local soil, was utilized. Students collect, screen, and isolate bacteria from their local communities in hopes of addressing the global crisis of antibiotic resistance. One such microbe, Paenarthrobacter nicotinovorans , was isolated and screened for antimicrobial activity.
