Aim: The primary aim of the present study was to screen salt tolerant calli and optimization in-vitro regeneration protocol from selected calli.
 Methodology: cotyledonary leaf explants sterilized by using 1% Bavistin, 0.1% Mercuric chloride 70% ethanol followed washing with distilled water. Sterilized were cultured on Murashige Skoog (MS) medium supplemented different concentration NaCl (...

Due to the awareness of impact synthetic dye on human health and environment, natural lake pigment have attracted considerable attention from researcher. Herein, pink−red sappanwood was prepared using adsorption approach. The effects initial pH, pH concentration brazilein solution, dosage aluminium hydroxide, time were also explored. Results showed that maximum capacity 30 mg g-1 achieved when ...

background and objective: pigment production by microorganisms is important due to more rapid growth, higher efficiency, easier extraction, and antimicrobial effects compared to other methods. the aim of the present study is to isolate and identify antibiotic pigment-producing actinomycetes from the soil of the persian gulf and to evaluate the antibiotic activity of their pigments in the second...

The objective of this study was to determine the effects of short-term presalting on pink color and pigment characteristics in ground chicken breasts after cooking. Four salt levels (0%, 1%, 2%, and 3%) were presalted and stored for 0 and 3 d prior to cooking. Cooking yield was increased as salt level was increased. However, no significant differences in pH values or oxidation reduction potenti...

Flexirubins are the unique type of bacterial pigments produced by the bacteria from the genus Chryseobacterium, which are used in the treatment of chronic skin disease, eczema etc. and may serve as a chemotaxonomic marker. Chryseobacterium artocarpi CECT 8497, an yellowish-orange pigment producing strain was investigated for maximum production of pigment by optimizing medium composition employi...

The aim of the study was to determine the optimum conditions for brown pigment formation by Kluyveromyces marxianus and Streptomyces chibaensis. Pigment formation was followed during the time course experiment in medium contains 20 g/l D-xylose as carbon source, 12 g/l of a mixture of peptone and yeast extract as a nitrogen source at pH 5.0 when incubated at 32°C, the production of pigment reac...

Previous reports from this laboratory have demonstrated that when a certain strain of Mycobacterium tuberculosis is cultured in Long's medium containing p-aminobenzoic acid (PABA), a yellow pigment is produced (Mayer, 1943, in press). Chemical analysis suggests that the pigment is, or contains, an unstable oxidation product of PABA, possibly a hydroxylamine derivative. The addition of Fe, Mg, g...

PENICILLIUM PHOENICEUM, representative of Thom's classification of Monoverticillata ramigena, produces a red pigment, phoenicine, which, being watersoluble, diffuses almost entirely into the medium. Its catalytic function in the respiration of living cells and certain of its properties were first described by Friedheim [1933]. The constitution, viz. 2:2'-dihydroxy-4:4'-ditoluquinone, was establ...
