Conclusion and Future Perspective
This review concludes that the bacterial pigments which are used in an assortment of applications in the food, drug and textile industries. The pigments from bacteria can play an indirect role in the conservation of plant and animal resources by substituting pigment screening. Researchers and the food sector are currently looking for natural colouring substances that are derived from marine microorganisms due to their ecological value. According to this review, pigments generated from marine biofilm bacteria have been used in a wide range of industries. In addition, the pigments could be used in the agricultural production, fertiliser and seed dressing industries. The research reports from pigments produced by marine bacteria are very scanty compared to terrestrial bacteria. Overall, this review of marine bioactive pigments and their pharmaceutical uses reveals the significance of identifying fresh marine bacterial compounds. Such substances have a wide range of physiologically active properties and keep offering promising opportunitiesĀ both for fundamental scientific research and biomedical study. Future studies should focus on determining the simplest method for collecting microbial pigments in order to expand their industrial applications. Accordingly, it is necessary to take into account a number of operational parameters that could cause a disparity due to the development and alteration of a new process by using inexpensive agricultural waste as a substrate in the future to identify high quality production of pigments. Future research should focus on a variety of methods that could lower manufacturing costs and boost yields for pigments on a broad scale
