Comparative Study of Monascus Sanguineus and Monascus Purpureus as Potential Sources for Red Pigment Production
Monascus spp. namely Monascus sanguineus was isolated from pomegranate (Punica granatum). In this study, the isolated M. sanguineus was compared with M. purpureus MTCC410 procured from MTCC Chandigarh, India for optimising the red pigment yield. It was observed that both strains had produced maximum red pigment on the 16 day of incubation (21.9 CVU/ml for M. sanguineus & 16.9 CVU/ml for M. purp...
متن کاملnatural pigment production by monascus purpureus: bioreactor yield improvement through statistical analysis
among the ways of pigment production, microbial synthesis has gained more interest for high growth rate, easy extraction and high yield. pigments are used in the food industry as natural colorants and preservatives; they also have pharmaceutical applications. in this study, fungus monascus purpureus ptcc 5303 was used to produce red, orange and yellow pigments. at first, significant variables w...
متن کاملBiodiesel production from soybean oil using ionic liquid as a catalyst in a microreactor
In the present study, Choline hydroxide (ChOH) as an ionic liquid catalyst was used for transesterification of soybean oil into biodiesel in a microchannel reactor. The effects of three variables i.e. reaction temperature, catalyst dosage and total flow rate on fatty acid methyl ester (FAME) content (wt. %) were optimized using Box–Behnken experimental design. In order to predict the FAME conte...
متن کاملMonascus pigment production by solid-state fermentation with corn cob substrate.
Natural pigments are an important alternative to potentially harmful synthetic dyes. We investigated the feasibility of corn cob powder as a substrate for production of pigments by Monascus purpureus KACC 42430 in solid-state fermentation. A pigment yield of 25.42 OD Units/gram of dry fermented substrate was achieved with corn cob powder and optimized process parameters, including 60% (w/w) ini...
متن کاملEffect of glycerol as a sole carbon source on Monascus sp. for pigment production
In the field of natural pigment production, Monascus sp. is a well known name. These pigments have their applicability as food colorants. In this study, two Monascus sp. namely Monascus purpureus procured from MTCC, Chandigarh, India and Monascus sanguineus isolated inhouse, were compared for pigment production in submerged fermentation. Glycerol was used as sole carbon source and malt extract ...
