Isolation and Screening of Melanin Producing Microorganism
Journal Title: International Journal for Research in Applied Science and Engineering Technology (IJRASET) - Year 2017, Vol 5, Issue 4
Abstract
Melanin is negatively charge compound composed of multi-functional polymers and polyphenolic compounds that are produced by various microorganisms by fermentation oxidation. Melanins are frequently used in medicines, pharmacology and cosmetic preparation. In present study, total 25 bacterial isolates were isolated from soil sample of various sugarcane and rice farm in vapi and valsad region. 19 strains among 25 bacterial isolates were capable of producing dark brown melanin pigment and isolate a-19 found to be highest producer of melanin which was confirmed by l- dopa as substrate.
