Effect of Saccharomyces cerevisiae Live Cell and Treated with Heat and Acid on Citrinin and Pigments of Monascus purpureus [PDF]

Pizhūhish va Nuāvarī dar ̒Ulūm va Sanāyi̒-i Ghaz̠āyī, 2020
Monascus purpureus can produce a wide range of natural pigments so attract the attention of food producers as substitute of synthetic colors. Monascus pigments usually accompanied with citrinin contamination which limits their wide application in foods ...

Marennine, Promising Blue Pigments from a Widespread Haslea Diatom Species Complex

Marine Drugs, 2014
In diatoms, the main photosynthetic pigments are chlorophylls a and c, fucoxanthin, diadinoxanthin and diatoxanthin. The marine pennate diatom Haslea ostrearia has long been known for producing, in addition to these generic pigments, a water-soluble blue

Nanoscale cuticle mass density variations influenced by pigmentation in butterfly wing scales [PDF]

arXiv, 2023
How pigment distribution influences the cuticle density within a microscopic butterfly wing scale, and how both impact final reflected color remains unknown. We used ptychographic X-ray computed tomography to quantitatively determine, at nanoscale resolutions, the three-dimensional mass density of scales with pigmentation differences.

Biotechnological Activities and Applications of Bacterial Pigments Violacein and Prodigiosin

Journal of Biological Engineering, 2021
In this review, we discuss violacein and prodigiosin, two chromogenic bacterial secondary metabolites that have diverse biological activities. Although both compounds were “discovered” more than seven decades ago, interest into their biological ...

Complex quantum network model of energy transfer in photosynthetic complexes [PDF]

Phys. Rev. E 86, 061917 (2012), 2012
The quantum network model with real variables is usually used to describe the excitation energy transfer (EET) in the Fenna-Matthews-Olson(FMO) complexes. In this paper we add the quantum phase factors to the hopping terms and find that the quantum phase factors play an important role in the EET. The quantum phase factors allow us to consider the space

Dietary blue pigments derived from genipin, attenuate inflammation by inhibiting LPS-induced iNOS and COX-2 expression via the NF-κB inactivation. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2012
The edible blue pigments produced by gardenia fruits have been used as value-added colorants for foods in East Asia for 20 years. However, the biological activity of the blue pigments derived from genipin has not been reported.The anti-inflammatory ...

Quantitative investigation of leaf photosynthetic pigments during annual biological cycle of Vitis vinifera L. table grape cultivars.

, 2016
Variations in chlorophyll a/b and chlorophyll/carotenoid ratios are indicators of senescence, stress or damage to the photosynthetic apparatus and affect the normal course of plant biological processes.
