| Abstract: | The present study was undertaken to investigate the antibacterial activities of marine luminous bacteria against 17 human pathogenic bacteria. Fourteen strains isolated from coastal marine samples of South Andaman, India, have exhibited antibacterial activity against at least one human pathogenic bacteria. 16s rRNA gene sequence analysis identified them as Vibrio harveyi, V. campbellii, V. owensii, V. rotiferianus, V. alginolyticus, Photobacterium damselae and P. leiognathi. P. leiognathi strain SQEG2 and V. campbellii strain BSECU1 showed maximum inhibition zones of 25 and 24 mm against Escherichia coli and Bacillus subtilis respectively. Crude ethyl acetate extracts of all the strains were obtained and analysed by Gas Chromatography–Mass Spectrometry. Antibacterial compounds identified were indole, phenol, 2,4-bis(1,1-dimethylethyl)-,dibutyl phthalate, and 1,2-Benzenedicarboxylic acid, butyl octyl ester. |
