Biotransformation of Daidzein, Genistein, and Naringenin by Streptomyces Species Isolated from High-Altitude Soil of Nepal

Table 1

Screening of flavone, isoflavone, and flavanone against Streptomyces species for biotransformation of diverse substrate molecules. Analysis was based on the HPLC chromatogram of unknown peaks, where (+) means biotransformation positive results and means no biotransformation based on the unknown peak in the HPLC chromatogram.
