Purpose of this research are to isolate the bacteria from the marine sediment of Bidong
Island, to study the antimicrobial properties of the bacteria and to identify the bioactive
isolates by 16S rRNA sequencing. In this research, the marine sediment sample was took
via scuba diving. Sampling was done at Vietnam Beach, Bidong Island and marine
sediment sample were purified and cultured by using streak plate method. For the
preliminary identification, gram staining procedure was applied in order to identify the
morphology of the marine bacteria.
