local.seafdecaqd.extractFilipino scientists have discovered marine bacteria in sediments of Tubbataha Reef in the Sulu Sea that can be developed into powerful antibiotics and anti-cancer compounds, the Department of Science and Technology (DOST) revealed. The DOST said its research team in Iloilo City’s University of San Agustin (USA), led by three “Balik Scientists,” uncovered the marine bacteria’s potential at the Tubbataha Reefs Natural Park, which the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization had declared a World Heritage Site. The marine bacteria touted to contain antibacterial and anti-cancer properties has been named S (Streptomyces) tubbatahanensis, after the place where it was discovered, home to 1,200 marine species and one of the Philippines’ oldest and most well-protected marine ecosystems.en
