Abstract

This study determined the antimicrobial activity of twenty actinomycetes isolated from Cinnamomum sp. against 4 foodborne bacteria. Actinomycetes were cultured on YIM 38, and the antimicrobial activity of the suspension cultures was determined by using well diffusion method. The results indicated that all 20 tested strains of actinomycetes showed the antimicrobial activity agaisnt at least one foodborne strain. The antimicrobial activity of actinomycetes against Escherichia coli ATCC 11105, Bacillus cereus ATCC 11778, Salmonella enterica subsp and Staphylococcus epidemidis were 45, 65, 85 and 85 %, respectively. Especially, YBQ80 showed the strongest antimicrobial effect (23.3 ± 0.12mm in diammeter) against Salmonella enterica ATCC 14028. The results indicated that the actinomycetes isolated from Cinnamomum sp. could be the potential source for food preservation and medical treatment of foodborn diseases.
