Review of Prodigiosin, Pigmentation in Serratia marcescens
Prodigiosins, a family of natural red pigments characterized by a common pyrrolylpyrromethane skeleton, are produced by various bacteria that first characterized from Serratia marcescens. This pigment is a promising drug owing to its reported characteristics of having antifungal, immunosuppressive and anti-proliferative activity. From an industrial point of view to obtain optimal conditions to ...
متن کاملProdigiosin production by Serratia marcescens UCP 1549 using renewable-resources as a low cost substrate.
A new strain of Serratia marcescens UCP1459 isolated from a semi-arid soil produced the natural red pigment prodigiosin, characterized by an uncommon pyrrolylpyrromethane skeleton. Prodigiosin is a promising drug due to its reported antifungal, immunosuppressive and anti-proliferative activities. The objective of this work was to indentify a suitable medium to simultaneously enhance S. marcesce...
متن کاملOptimization of prodigiosin production by Serratia marcescens using crude glycerol and enhancing production using gamma radiation
Prodigiosin is a red pigment produced by Serratia marcescens. Prodigiosin is regarded as a promising drug owing to its reported characteristics of possessing anti-microbial, anti-cancer, and immunosuppressive activity. A factorial design was applied to generate a set of 32 experimental combinations to study the optimal conditions for pigment production using crude glycerol obtained from local b...
متن کاملIsolation, Identification, Optimization of Prodigiosin Pigment Produced by Serratia Marcescens and its Applications
Natural products either synthesized or secreted by organisms represent one of the critical sources of potential medicinal use. Both natural pigments and synthetic dyes have been widely used in different fields in on a daily basis life such as foods or feeds, textiles, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, paper printing inks, etc. Secondary metabolites of bacterial origin include various enzymes, pigment...
متن کاملApplication of prodigiosin as a colorant for polyolefines
Serratia marcescens strain 9986 is a producer of prodigiosin used as a dye of polyolefines (polyethylene, ultratene). The biosynthesis of pigment was closely connected with controlled growth parameters. A prodigiosin yield 0.2 0.4 mg per l of culture medium in the batch culture under aerobic conditions was obtained. Prodigiosin was extracted from crude biomass treated by 0.1% of sodium dodecyl ...
