Abstract
Mangrove sediment-associated bacteria are of significantly important in the field of medicine and pharmaceuticals as new promising sources of biologically active pharmacophores due to the extreme conditions, such as high salt concentration and soil anoxia. The sediment bacteria associated with Acanthus ilicifolius and Avicennia officinalis collected from the Mangalavanam mangrove ecosystem of the Kerala State of India were evaluated using various in vitro models for the assessment of their pharmacological properties. The bacteria exhibiting significant antioxidant and antimicrobial activities were isolated, identified, and characterized by the integrated microbiological, biochemical, and 16S rRNA sequencing. Among the varied bacteria isolated from mangrove sediments, Bacillus amyloliquefaciens MBMS5 (GenBank accession number MK765025) exhibited significant antimicrobial activities against various pathogenic bacteria, such as Aeromonas caviae, Vibrio parahemolyticus, and methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus. The extracellular extracts of B. amyloliquefaciens MBMS5 exhibited potential antioxidant activity against free radical species coupled with anti-inflammatory property as displayed by the attenuation activity against pro-inflammatory 5-lipoxygenase.
