Abstract Microorganisms can be an effective source for antimicrobial compounds including peptides that provide evolutionary advantage to them in specific niches. Prior studies have noted the properties of Exiguobacterium aurantiacum, Lysinibacillus boronitolerans and Bacillus megaterium but they used time- resource-intensive procedures prepare extracts (2, 10). We wanted explore a more cost-effective, time-effective simpler method testing potential bacterial extracts. Our extraction protocol...
