Diversity and antimicrobial activity of marine nudibranch associated bacteria against tropical human skin pathogens

Bacteria associated with three species of marine nudibranchs (<i>Jorunna funebris</i>,<i> Gymnodoris rubropapulosa,</i> and <i>Glossodoris atromarginata</i>) sampled from Jepara coastal waters, the North Java Sea in August 2020. A total of 115 bacterial strains were selected for their prospective antipathogenic compounds against the pathogens <i>Cutibacterium </i>[LT1] [AS2] <i>acnes</i>, <i>Staphylococcus aureus</i>, <i>Candida albicans,</i> and <i>Malassezia furfur</i>. <br>
