| Abstract: | In this paper, we report the isolation and identification of 45 marine bacterial strains
from waters of the Southern Economic Exclusive Zone of Cuba collected during three
cruises carried out between 1989 and 1991. The antimicrobial activity was determined
by the diffusion plate method using Nutrient agar and agar blocks with the cultures to
study. As result, 24 species were identified and 9 resulted new reports for Cuban
waters. The highest percentage was obtained for Gram-positive bacteria, particularly
spore-forming bacteria (67 %). Arthrobacter, Halorubrum and Lactobacillus genus were
new reports for oceanic waters. Antibacterial activity was more represented than
antifungal activity among the tested strains. Gram-positive bacteria showed high
antimicrobial activity in particular Bacillus genus. S 261 (B. subtilis) and S 299 (B.
firmus) strains inhibited 4 of the sensitive strains assayed. |
