ABSTRACT.
The screening of microbial natural products continues to represent an
important route to the discovery of novel chemicals for development of new
therapeutic agents, and evaluation of the potential of lesser-known and/or
new bacterial taxa is of increasing interest. AMRAD Discovery Technologies
Pty. Ltd. is committed to the discovery of novel biologically active
molecules from microorganisms isolated from Australian environmental
samples as leads for the development of new compounds for the treatment of
major human diseases.
