Marine organisms are seen as a source of novel drugs and the discovery of new pharmaceutical is increasingly in demand.
Cyanobacteria are regarded as a potential target for this as antibacterial, antiviral, antifungal, algicide and cytotoxic activities have been reported in these organisms.
They have been identified as a new and rich source of bioactive compounds belonging to diversified groups.
Radiation in the UV-B range interferes with various metabolic reactions by generating free radicals and active oxygen species.
These deleterious compounds are inactivated by antioxidants.
Among them are the carotenoids and phycocyanin which protect against photodynamic action in different ways.
Stress plays an important role in the production of bioactive metabolites from organisms.
Synechococcus spp.
PCC7942 was studied for antibacterial activity against various pathogenic bacteria resistant to a number of available antibiotics after being exposed to UV-B radiation.
The antibacterial activity of Synechococcus spp.
PCC7942 was studied on five potent skin pathogens.
The highest antibacterial activity was seen the methanol extracts of 24 h UV-B exposed cultures of Synechococcus spp.
PCC7942.
It can be concluded that there was moderate antibacterial activity.
Results showed stress, solvent and dose-dependent activity.
This antibacterial activity might be due to the enhanced synthesis of carotenoids and phycocyanin under UV-B stress.
The purpose of the present study was to relate the inhibitory effects of the cyanobacterial compounds specifically on skin pathogens with exposure to UV-B radiation as UV protecting compounds are already reported in these organisms.
