Optimization of yellow pigment production by Monascus purpureus from banana peel
The purpose of this research is mainly to study the optimization of yellow pigment production by Monascus purpureus from banana peel. There has been an increasing trend towards replacement of synthetic colorants with natural pigments in last decades due to the high demand of natural products. Bac...
