Three isolates of actinomycetes (6ca11, Ac9 and Ac19) were
isolated from the EFB compost (curing-stage) obtained from an oil
palm mill in Lahad Datu, Sabah, Malaysia. Briefly, isolation was
performed using the spread-plate technique, from which pure
cultures were subsequently established using the streak-plate
technique on Actinomycetes Isolation Agar (AIA) (Difco).
