Abstract
Molecular Characterization of Four Antibiotic Producing Actinomycetes Isolated from Menengai Crater
Highlights
The emergence of infectious diseases caused by multi-drug resistant pathogens is a great threat to human health all over the world [1]
The number of actinomycetes isolated from the four regions varied significantly (F=27.50 p ≤ 0.001)
The results of this study indicated that M1 agar was the best media for recovering actinomycetes from Menengai crater
Summary
The emergence of infectious diseases caused by multi-drug resistant pathogens is a great threat to human health all over the world [1]. A large number of biomolecules bank have been developed leading to synthesis of many antibiotics, there is need for discovering novel antibiotics [2]. Steaming grounds at a temperature of 88°C. The sides of the volcanic crater collapsed inwards forming a large hole in the crust, called a caldera. Menengai crater occupies an area of 90 km and a diameter of 12 km. The crater is the second largest in Africa after Ngorongoro crater in Tanzania. Menengai crater is located in Rongai and Nakuru North Subcounties at 35° 28’, 35° 36’E, and 0° 13’, 1° 10’S [15]
