Exploration of Klebsiella aerogenes derived secondary metabolites and their antibacterial activities against multidrug-resistant bacteria.

ABSTRACT: As the effectiveness of current treatments against the development of antimicrobial resistance is declining, new strategies are required. A great source of novel secondary metabolites with therapeutics effects are the endophytic bacteria present in medicinal plants. In this study, Klebsiella aerogenes (an endophytic bacteria belonging to the Enterobacteriaceae family) was isolated from Kalanchoe blossfeldiana (a medicinal plant". The bacterial secondary metabolites were identified using GC-MS techniques. Furthermore, the antibacterial potentials were investigated against multi-drug resistance (MDR) Salmonella typhi and Staphylococcus aureus. The GC-MS chromatogram of K. aerogenes secondary metabolites extract displayed total of 36 compounds. Ethyl acetate extracts of K. aerogenes, showed m
