Production of pigments by Rhodotorula mucilaginosa [PDF]

Malaysian Journal of Microbiology, 2018
Rhodotorula yeast belongs to the family of Cryptococcaceae, a subfamily of Rhodotorulodeae. Rhodotorula produces major carotenoid pigments like carotene, torularhodin, and torulene. Carotenoids are important natural pigments. The concentration and type of carotenoids production by genus Rhodotorula is influenced by the species of microorganism, the ...

Whole genome sequencing of Rhodotorula mucilaginosa isolated from the chewing stick (Distemonanthus benthamianus): insights into Rhodotorula phylogeny, mitogenome dynamics and carotenoid biosynthesis [PDF]

PeerJ, 2017
In industry, the yeast Rhodotorula mucilaginosa is commonly used for the production of carotenoids. The production of carotenoids is important because they are used as natural colorants in food and some carotenoids are precursors of retinol (vitamin A ...

Rhodotorula mucilaginosa lymphadenitis in an HIV-infected patient [PDF]

International Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2009
We report a case of lymphadenitis due to Rhodotorula mucilaginosa in a man with well-controlled HIV infection. The diagnosis was established microbiologically by positive lymph tissue cultures, and clinically by responses of lymphadenitis to antifungal therapy. The patient was asymptomatic and was treated with itraconazole 200mg orally once daily as an

Inulinase from Rhodotorula mucilaginosa: immobilization and application in the production of fructooligosaccharides [PDF]

Food Science and Biotechnology, 2021
The crude extract containing inulinase from Rhodotorula mucilaginosa was obtained by submerged fermentation. Inulinase was immobilized on chicken eggshell by physical adsorption and covalent crosslinking, using glutaraldehyde as a crosslinking reagent, and Celite by adsorption. Fructooligosaccharides production was performed using immobilized inulinase

Effects of Rhodotorula mucilaginosa on the Immune Function and Gut Microbiota of Mice

Frontiers in Fungal Biology, 2021
As a dominant species among marine yeasts, Rhodotorula benthica accounts for ~50% of all marine yeasts. Rhodotorula is rich in a variety of bioactive substances and commonly used in the production of carotenoids by microbial fermentation and is worth ...

Farnesol modulation of Rhodotorula mucilaginosa in biofilm and planktonic forms

Anais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências, 2022
Biofilms are important to the virulence of human pathogenic fungi, and some molecules have been found to play key roles in the growth and regulation of fungal biofilms. Farnesol, one of these molecules, is well-described for some microorganisms but is still scarcely known for Rhodotorula spp.
