Production of Red Pigment by Mutants of Monascus anka
|
|
|
|
Abstract
|
|
|
Optimal conditions of producing red pigment by Monascus anka, Nakazawa, et Sato, IFO 4478 and 6540 were found to be at pH 6.0 and 30¡É for 10 days. When 3.0% steamed rice and 1.0 defatted sesame exfracts were used as substrates, the highest production of red pigment was yielded. Furthermore, mutants such as Monascus anka 4478-27 and 6540-185 induced by N-methyl-N-vitro-N-nitrosoguanidine (MNNG) treatment were found to produce pigment much more than parent strains.
