Isolation and identification of actinomycetes F-97 producing tyrosinase inhibitor = Tyrosinase 저해제를 생성하는 방선균 F-97의 분리 및 동정

Abstract

In order to obtain a non-toxic and more active and stable microorganism-produced tyrosinase inhibitor, we isolated actinomycetes F-97, a producer of tyrosinase inhibitor, from soil. The aerial hyphae of this strain were gray in color with tree types. Under the microscopic examination, the isolate formed a spiral aerial spore mass with a smooth surface. The analysis of cell wall acid hydrolysate of the isolate revealed the presence of LL-diaminopimelic acid(LL-DAP). No specific sugar was detected. From these results and the cultural and physiological characteristics described in the Bergey's Manual, actinomycetes F-97 was identificated as, or best-matched to, Streptomyces aburaviensis.
