Abstract/Summary

One hundred two bacterial isolates (102) from soil samples collected in Smokey Mountain Tondo, Manila were characterized in terms of their colonial and microscopic morphology. Bacterial isolates were also screened for their antimicrobial property on five test microorganisms. The test microorganisms were Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Serratia marcesens, Escherichia coli, Bacillus subtilus and Candida albicans. Out of the one hundred two (102) isolates only one exhibited antimicrobial activity. Isolate A25 was observed to inhibit the growth of Bacillus subtilis.
