Antimicrobial Activity of Soil Clostridium Enriched Conditioned Media Against Bacillus mycoides, Bacillus cereus, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa.

ABSTRACT: The rise of antimicrobial resistant bacteria has fast-tracked the exploration for novel antimicrobial compounds. Reports on antimicrobial producing soil anaerobes such as Clostridium spp. are very limited. In the present study, the antimicrobial activity of soil Clostridium enriched conditioned/spent media (CMs) against Bacillus mycoides, Bacillus cereus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa was assessed by turbidimetric growth inhibition assay. Our results highlighted the antimicrobial potential of soil Clostridium enriched conditioned media against pathogenic and spoilage bacteria. Farm 4 soil conditioned medium (F4SCM) demonstrated a greater growth inhibition activity against all three tested microorganisms in comparison to other soil conditioned media. No
