Antiviral and Larvicidal Properties of Novel Bioactive Compounds Produced from Marine Actinomycetes

Abstract

The aim of the present study was to assess the antiviral and larvicidal property of the marine actinobacterial compound extracted from Nocardia alba KC710971. The compounds were tested against the Newcastle disease virus and infectious Brucellosis disease virus and the larvae of Aedesegypti, Culexquinquefasciatusand Anopheles stephensi. The isolated bioactive compound have showed potential to act as antiviral and anti-larval and the compound was identified as “(Z)-1-((1-hydroxypenta-2,4-dien-1-yl)oxy)anthracene-9,10-dione”.
