Microbial secondary metabolites are the products of secondary metabolism usually of low molecular mass possessing diversified biological activities and chemical structures. They are produced primarily during the idio-phase of microorganisms. These microbial secondary metabolites may include immunosuppressants, antibiotics, anthelminthic or antitumor agents.
Inoculum are the substances which are utilized in the preparation of an inoculation, i.e. the cells or strains which can start the growth of a culture.
