- Description
- In this chapter, we discuss various bacterial derived secondary metabolites pigments which has antimicrobial properties. Though these metabolites were identified more than several decades ago, attention into their bioactivities has emerged in the last few decades. Their increasing acceptance is an outcome of their cost-effectiveness, biodegradability, noncarcinogenic property, and eco-friendly characteristics. This chapter has made an attempt to take an in-depth observation into the current bacterial derived pigments and their bioactivity against various microorganisms. 2024 selection and editorial matter, Mohammed Kuddus, Poonam Singh, Raveendran Sindhu and Rachana Singh; individual chapters, the contributors.
