An actinobacterium newly isolated from soil during a screening study was identified as Streptomyces sp. MC12 (GenBank accession number: PP757795) based on 16S rRNA analysis. For secondary metabolite production, fermentation was carried out in ISP 2 broth at 30°C, pH 7.3, for seven days under shaking conditions at 180 rpm. As a result of fermentation studies, the antagonistic effect of the crude extract, obtained through ethyl acetate extraction, against various microorganisms was determined. The MIC values of the extract against Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli were 101.3 µg/mL and 153.6 µg/mL, respectively. It was also found to exhibit strong antifungal activity against Penicillium spp. Streptomyces sp. MC12, which displays both antifungal and antibacterial properties, is considered a potential secondary metabolite producer for future studies, particularly in pharmacology and the biocontrol of fungal pathogens.
