Prodigiosin is a red pigment produced by various strains of the bacterium Serratia marcescens (and Gram-negative bacteria as well). Prodigiosin is a significant compound due to its diverse biological activities and potential applications. It has antifungal, antimalarial, antimicrobial, and immunosuppressive properties ideal for pharmaceutical applications.

Prodigiosin has shown the ability to induce apoptosis in various cancer cell lines, thus making it a potential anticancer agent. It can be used as an environment-friendly alternative to synthetic dyes. It was also found to enhance the sun protection factor (SPF) of sunscreen. The adaptability of microbial pigment Prodigiosin makes it a compound with good potential in different fields of applications, and it may show remarkable use in the future as research on it continues.

The market prodigiosin is driven by various factors emerging from its usefulness and potential applications. The major diver is its antimicrobial, antifungal, antimalarial, immunosuppressive, and potent anticancer properties. These beneficial properties have sparked interest in the pharmaceutical industry, creating a demand for optimized production to support the development of prodigiosin-based drugs.

Prodigiosin is appealing as a natural colorant that has made it a sought-after ingredient in the cosmetics and polymer industries. Its proven ability to enhance the sun protection factor (SPF) of sunscreens has further expanded its procurement demand. Hence, the changes in its demand in pharmaceutical, cosmetics, and polymer manufacturing, along with its production prices, market prices, and logistics, directly influence industrial Prodigiosin procurement in the global market.

Raw Material for Prodigiosin Production

According to the Prodigiosin manufacturing plant project report, the key raw materials used in the production of Prodigiosin include peanut de-oiled cake, rice straw, and polysaccharides derived from the Serratia marcescent CMS2 bacterial strain.

Manufacturing Process of Prodigiosin

The extensive Prodigiosin production cost report consists of the following major industrial manufacturing processes:

• From peanut de-oiled cake, rice straw, and polysaccharides: For the manufacturing of Prodigiosin, Peanut de-oiled cake is used as a nitrogen source, which,along with xylose (derived from rice straw) as a carbon source, is added to the growth medium. The fermentation conditions are carefully optimized by adjusting factors like temperature, pH, and aeration, maximizing the productivity of the Serratia marcescens CMS2 bacterial strain. After that, the extraction of Prodigiosin is done using an optimized extraction process, by a specific solvent-to-fermentation liquid ratio, extraction temperature, extraction time, and methanol as the solvent. Finally, Prodigiosin is encapsulated in polysaccharides that improve its solubility, allowing it to be incorporated into food and other consumer products.

Prodigiosin is a striking red pigment produced by bacterial strains. Its predicted melting point is 554.3 ± 50.0 °C, and its density is 1.12 ± 0.1 g/cm³. It is soluble in solvents like acetonitrile, ethanol, and methanol, and its pyrrolylpyrromethane skeleton structure shows interesting pH-chromic behavior. These physical and chemical properties strengthen Prodigiosin's potential as a resourceful and valuable compound across diverse applications.
