natural pigment production by monascus purpureus: bioreactor yield improvement through statistical analysis
نویسندگان
چکیده
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 were screened based on plackett-burman’s design. the optimized value of two effective factors, i.e. concentration of yeast extract and k2hpo4 by three-level, was more studied by the response surface method (rsm). the most suitable level was 2.75 g/l for yeast extract and 1.5 g/l for k2hpo4. antimicrobial activity of the pigments was shown on gram-positive food-borne bacteria under optimal conditions. moreover, pigment production at optimal conditions in a bioreactor was evaluated, and the rate of production of red, orange and yellow pigments was obtained to be 2.05, 1.55 and 0.78 (odu/ml), respectively.

متن کاملComparative 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...

The present study investigated the effects of agitation speed, N (200, 500, 600 or 700 rpm), and dissolved oxygen concentration, C (120, >70, 70, 60, 10 or 10%), on red pigment and citrinin production by Monascus purpureus ATCC 36928, cultivated in liquid medium by a batch process. The gas flow rate was the same for all runs with C controlled by means of the incoming gas composition control (ai...
متن کاملProduction of Angkak Through Co-Culture of Monascus Purpureus and MONASCUS RUBER
Angkak (red mold rice, red yeast rice, Chinese red rice) is a traditional Chinese medicine produced by solid-state fermentation of cooked non-glutinous rice with Monascus species. The secondary metabolite of Monascus species, monacolin K /lovastatin, has been proven to lower blood lipid levels. In this study, a co-culture of Monascus purpureus MTCC 369 and Monascus ruber MTCC 1880 was used for ...
متن کاملQuantification of Lovastatin Produced by Monascus purpureus
Development of a novel method for the quantification of lovastatin is an interesting problem in the analytical field. In the literature, many reports use spectrophotometric method for the quantification of lovastatin. However, the analysis of fermentation broth containing lovastatin appears to be inaccurate using spectrophotometric method. Hence, the estimation of lovastatin produced by Monascu...
