Evaluation of the antibacterial activity of different species of phytoplankton
The antibiotic activity of organic extracts from cultures of six species of phytoplankton, Synechococcus elongatus, Synechocystis sp., Amphiprora paludosa, Porphyridium cruentum, Chaetoceros muelleri and Dunaliella tertiolecta was examined. The bacteria used were Gram(-) strains, Escherichia coli, P...
