I have screened hundreds of actinomycetes strains with antibacterial activity against bacterial pathogens. The strains were stored at 4 deg C. After 4-6 months of storage I have lost the activity of more than 30 strains even though it grows well in the medium. Now these strains are not showing inhibitory activity against the same pathogens. What is the reason behind this and I would like to know how to overcome this problem?
