This book provides fascinating insights into the isolation and identification of actinomycetes, as well as the synthesis of bioactive molecules like extracellular tyrosinase and nanoparticles by actinomycetes. It shows that microorganisms constitute a huge and almost unexplained reservoir of resources likely to provide innovative and useful applications. The fact that bacteria have survived ever since the origin of life on the earth reveals that this group of organisms is a storehouse for changes that have occurred over millions of years of evolution in response to changing environmental conditions. They are the most abundant and highly diverse group among all organisms living today, and should thus be explored for their synthesis of bioactive molecules like antibiotics, enzymes and nanoparticles.
