Pigments and Pathogenesis
In recent years pigments have been identified in human nutrition to have a positive effect on human health and reduction to oxidative stress exposure. In the media it has become common wisdom that colourful food is naturally better to consume for humans and animals. Now recently it has been shown that pigments aid microbial species as well, and conversely these microbial pigments may result in ...
متن کاملThe production of cheese-flavored extruded snack exploiting anti-microbial properties of natural food colors
In this study, the effects of some edible pigments used in the food industry on pathogenic bacteria were investigated. For this purpose, five natural food colors were selected consisted of curcumin, β-carotene, paprika oleoresin, lycopene and turmeric oleoresin. The impacts of each color on bacterial species including Salmonella enterica, Escherichia coli, Bacillus cereus<...
متن کاملEffect of Carbon and Nitrogen Sources on Stimulation of Pigment Production by Monascus purpureus on Jackfruit Seeds
Food colorants from natural sources are preferred over the synthetic variants which elicits various adverse effects including teratogenicity and carcinogenicity. Pigments produced from Monascus spp. are of microbial origin and can be used as food grade biocolorants. The aim of the present work was to investigate the feasibility of Jackfruit seed as a substrate supplemented with carbon sources l...
متن کاملAn Insightful Overview on Microbial Pigment, Prodigiosin
The toxicity problems caused by those of synthetic origin pigments to the environment have created a mounting interest towards natural pigments. Among natural pigments, pigments from microbial sources are potentially good alternative ones to synthetic pigments. Prodigiosin, the bright red pigment produced by organisms of the genus Serratia, is among the more conspicuous pigments extant in the m...
