Effect of active oxygen species on the productivity of torularhodin by Rhodotorula glutinis No. 21
Journal of Bioscience and Bioengineering, 2002The effect of active oxygen species on the productivity of torularhodin, an effective antioxidant, by soil yeast, Rhodotorula glutinis no. 21, was examined. Methylene blue, methyviologen and AAPH [2,2'-azobis(2-amidinopropane) dihydrochloride] were used as generators of singlet oxygen, superoxide anion radicals and peroxy radicals, respectively. All of

Improved antibacterial behavior of titanium surface with torularhodin–polypyrrole film
Materials Science and Engineering C, 2014The problem of microorganisms attaching and proliferating on implants and medical devices surfaces is still attracting interest in developing research on different coatings based on antibacterial agents. The aim of this work is centered on modifying titanium (Ti) based implants surfaces through incorporation of a natural compound with antimicrobial ...

Enhancing antimicrobial activity of TiO2/Ti by torularhodin bioinspired surface modification
Bioelectrochemistry, 2016Implant-associated infections are a major cause of morbidity and mortality. This study was performed using titanium samples coated by anodization with a titanium dioxide (TiO2) shielded nanotube layer. TiO2/Ti surface was modified by simple immersion in torularhodin solution and by using a mussel-inspired method based on polydopamine as bio adhesive ...

Enhancement of Torularhodin Production in Rhodosporidium toruloides by Agrobacterium tumefaciens-Mediated Transformation and Culture Condition Optimization [PDF]
Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry, 2019 Nine transformants of Rhodosporidium toruloides with significant changes in the carotenoid profile were obtained by Agrobacterium tumefaciens-mediated transformation, including a white, three red, and four yellow mutants. A red mutant A1-15-BRQ that showed a high torularhodin production was selected for culture condition optimization. Results indicated

Torulene and torularhodin are two of the principal carotenoids in Sporidiobolus pararoseus and have a similar structure to that of lycopene. The present study was to elucidate the anti-cancer activity of torulene and torularhodin in vivo with lycopene as a control. Nude mice were orally supplemented every day with a low or high dose [9 or 18 mg/kg body

Activation of torularhodin production by Rhodotorula glutinis using weak white light irradiation
Journal of Bioscience and Bioengineering, 2001The effects of the irradiation of weak white light on the growth of the red yeast Rhodotorula glutinis and its production of carotenoids were investigated. The ability of beta-carotene and torularhodin, which are final products of carotenoid biosynthesis in R. glutinis, to quench singlet oxygen has also been investigated.

Production of Torularhodin, Torulene, and β-Carotene by Rhodotorula Yeasts [PDF]
, 2012 Yeasts of the genera Rhodotorula are able to synthesize different pigments of high economic value like β-carotene, torulene, and torularhodin, and therefore represent a biotechnologically interesting group of yeasts. However, the low production rate of pigment in these microorganisms limits its industrial application.

Intermediates in the oxidative pathway from torulene to torularhodin in the red yeasts Cystofilobasidium infirmominiatum and C. capitatum (Heterobasidiomycetes, Fungi) [PDF]
Phytochemistry, 2007 Two red Cystofilobasidium spp. isolated from spring sap-flows of Betula pendula were analysed for their carotenoid content. In Cystofilobasidium infirmominiatum, three unusual pigments were detected and identified by structure elucidation as oxidised torulene derivatives.
