Characterization of Bioactive Colored Materials Produced from Bacterial Cellulose and Bacterial Pigments. [PDF]
A Bacterial Cellulose (BC) film was developed and characterized as a potential functional bioactive material. BC films, obtained from a microbial consortium of bacteria and yeast species, were functionalized with the bacterial pigment prodigiosin, produced by Serratia plymuthica, and flexirubin-type pigment, from Chryseobacterium shigense, which ...

Bacterial pigment for Nile tilapia feeding [PDF]
The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of different carotenoids sources in tilapia fish diets on the animals’ performance and fillets characteristics. Nine hundred and sixty tilapias, Oreochromis niloticus, averaging 15 g were distributed into 24 tanks to receive one of the six treatments (four repetitions) for 80 days: basal diet with no ...
