Abstract:
There were some samples collected from the Antarctic soil and South Ocean water for isolation of microorganisms and screening of their antitumor bioactivity by lethality bioassay using brine shrimp and a flow cytometric bioassay.There were 259 stains were isolated from the samples,11% of the Antarctic microorganisms showed strong antitumor activity.This result showed that the Antarctic microorganisms have a good potential in bioactive metabolites researching.
