Natural pigments and colorants have seen a substantial increase in use over the last few decades due to their eco-friendly safe properties. Currently, customer preferences for more natural products are driving substitution of synthetic colorants. Filamentous fungi, particularly ascomycetous fungi (Monascus, Fusarium, Penicillium, Aspergillus), been shown produce secondary metabolites containing wide variety pigments, including β-carotene, melanins, azaphilones, quinones, flavins, ankaflavin, monascin, anthraquinone, naphthoquinone. These colors tints, yellow, orange, red, green, purple, brown, blue. Additionally, these broad spectrum pharmacological activities, immunomodulatory, anticancer, antioxidant, antibacterial, antiproliferative activities. This review provides an in-depth overview gathered from diverse sources lists several probable capable producing color hues. The second section discusses how classify coloring compounds according chemical structure, characteristics, biosynthetic processes, application, present state. Once again, we investigate possibility employing fungal polyketide as food coloring, well toxicity carcinogenicity particular pigments. explores advanced technologies such metabolic engineering nanotechnology can be employed overcome obstacles associated with manufacture mycotoxin-free, food-grade

Microbial pigments have many structures and functions with excellent characteristics, such as being biodegradable, non-toxic, ecologically friendly, constituting an important source of pigments. Industrial production presents a bottleneck in cost that restricts large-scale commercialization. However, microbial are progressively gaining popularity because their health advantages. The development metabolic engineering reduction the bioprocess using industry by-products opened possibilities for quality improvements all phases. We thus addressing several points related to pigments, including major classes found, advantages use, biotechnological applications different industrial sectors, impacts on environment society.

28More Than Pigments: The Potential of Astaxanthin and Bacterioruberin-Based Nanomedicines
Pharmaceutics, Год журнала: 2023, Номер 15(7), С. 1828 - 1828

Carotenoids are natural products regulated by the food sector, currently used as feed dyes and antioxidants in dietary supplements composing functional foods for human consumption. Of nearly one thousand carotenoids described to date, only retinoids, derived from beta carotene, have status of a drug pharmaceutical sector. In this review, we address novel field: transformation xanthophylls, particularly highly marketed astaxanthin practically unknown bacterioruberin, therapeutic agents altering their pharmacokinetics, biodistribution, pharmacodynamics through formulation nanomedicines. The antioxidant activity xanthophylls is mediated routes different those classical oral anti-inflammatory drugs such corticosteroids non-steroidal (NSAIDs): remarkably, lack but also toxicity. Formulated nanomedicines, gain mechanisms other than increased bioavailability. Loaded into ad hoc tailored nanoparticles protect structure throughout storage during gastrointestinal transit or skin penetration, can be targeted delivered selected inflamed cell groups, achieving massive intracellular concentration after endocytosis small doses formulation. Most first reports showing activities topical xanthophyll-based nanomedicines against chronic diseases inflammatory bowel disease, psoriasis, atopic dermatitis, dry eye disease emerged between 2020 2023. Here discuss detail preclinical performance, mostly vesicular polymeric nanoparticles, on cellular models vivo. results, although preliminary, auspicious enough speculate upon potential use administration treatment diseases.

23Sustainable extraction and utilization of chlorophyll from microalgae for eco-friendly wool dyeing
Journal of Cleaner Production, Год журнала: 2024, Номер 451, С. 142009 - 142009

Microalgae are promising and sustainable sources of diverse valuable compounds, including chlorophyll, a pigment widely used in food, feed, cosmeceutical applications. Exploring its interesting green hue, recent investigations have delved into alternative industrial applications, such as textile dyeing, aiming to minimize reliance on non-sustainable synthetic dyes. To reduce the use these environmentally harmful compounds dyeing establish cost-effective eco-friendly approaches for chlorophyll extraction, this study investigates extracted from Chlorella vulgaris NIVA CHL-108 wool dyeing. Aqueous biphasic systems (ABS) composed ethanol sodium hydroxide were chlorophyll-concentrated phase was This integrated approach allowed complete recovery enhanced performance mordanted unmordanted wool. The achieved remarkable uptake 87% after two cycles wool, approximately 98% copper ions proposes circular ABS-based platforms concentration, also presenting challenges impeding their application proposing strategies overcome them. work proves that alcohol/salt simple, circular, cost-efficient solutions extraction utilization
