MUM265 as a potential source of antioxidant and anticolon-cancer agents JO - BMC Microbiology SP - 38 VL - 19 IS - 1 AB - Colon cancer is the third most commonly diagnosed cancer worldwide, with a commensurately high mortality rate. The search for novel antioxidants and specific anticancer agents which may inhibit, delay or reverse the development of colon cancer is thus an area of great interest; Streptomyces bacteria have been demonstrated to be a source of such agents.
