Synopsis

The objective of Microbial Colorants: Chemistry, Biosynthesis, and Applications is to provide a thorough exploration of microbial pigments from a multidisciplinary perspective. This book investigates microbial pigments, covering their courses, chemical properties, biosynthesis, and a wide range of applications. The primary aim of this book is to address the growing need for environmentally friendly coloration methods while also offering valuable insights into the broader scientific and industrial implications of microbial pigments. This book will also highlight the environment and sustainability of microbial pigment production, helping readers gain insights into the diverse world and science behind their vibrant colors. As the world seeks eco-friendly alternatives to synthetic dyes and colorants, microbial pigments offer a promising solution.

The content of this book is organized into three primary sections. Section one presents an overview of microbial pigment sources and diversity. This section explores the wide range of pigment biosynthesis routes, offering a basic comprehension of the metabolic mechanisms accountable for the synthesis of microbial colorants. The second section focuses on the chemical composition and active characteristics of microbial pigments. This section investigates their structures, examines extraction and purification processes, and gives a comprehensive examination of pigment classes. The third section discusses the most recent progress in microbial pigments exploited in technological advances. This section delves into the integration of microbial pigments into advanced industry sectors, including dye-sensitized solar cells, bioelectronics, and eco-friendly fabrics. Furthermore, this part focuses on the sustainability implications of microbial pigment manufacturing, taking into account the life cycle evaluation and environmental consequences.
