Antifungal and antibacterial activities of four Malaysian sponge species (petrosiidae)
Aqueous and organic extracts from four marine sponges collected from the coastline of Malaysia were screened against six microorganisms, including the bacteria Staphylococcus aureus ATCC25923, Bacillus cereus ATCC11778, Pseudomonas aeruginosa ATCC27853, Escherichia coli ATCC35218, the yeasts Candida...
