Production of red pigment from oil palm frond using monascus purpureus FTC 5356 in solid state fermentation

Production of red pigment by Monascus species has known as an edible pigment which rich in wide range of biological activities. Traditionally, Monascus pigment has been produced using rice powder as a culture substrate, which was industrially impractical due to pricey. To reduce the cost, the feasib...
