The study involved the isolation and identification of a member of Streptomyces griseorubens and the identification of its secondary metabolite content. Two extract samples were prepared by using butanol and chloroform. In the analyses of the extracts TLC, FT-IR, and GC-MS were employed. Butanol extract appeared to be dominated by three different pyrrole compounds (43.59%), while two fatty acids, linoleic- and erucic acids, were the most abundant secondary metabolites in the chloroform extract, 27.57% and 12.34%, respectively. Pyrrolo[1,2-a]pyrazine-1,4-dione, hexahydro-compound was represented by a single and distinct band on the thin layer chromatography plate. In GC-MS spectra, it also constituted 13.50% of the butanol extract.
