Bio-Production of Pigments from Some Local Fungal Isolates by Solid State Fermentation using some Agro- Industrial Wastes [PDF]

Journal of Agricultural Chemistry and Biotechnology, 2022
Four local fungal isolates were used in this study to produce pigments using some agro- industrial wastes via solid state fermentation. The maximum production of pigments by Talaromyces purpureogenus (MT232241.1) was obtained when broken wheat was used ...

Characterization of melanin and optimal conditions for pigment production by an endophytic fungus, Spissiomyces endophytica SDBR-CMU319.

PLoS ONE, 2019
Melanin is a natural pigment that is produced by filamentous fungi. In this study, the endophytic species, Spissiomyces endophytica (strain SDBR-CMU319), produced a brown-black pigment in the mycelia.
