Abstract

Floral waste management in Indian purview is seemingly diffused. The main contributors of floral waste are religious offerings spanning across PAN India level. Certainly, floral waste appropriately referred to as temple waste is either dumped into adjoining surface waters and streams or is being piled up with municipal solid waste for its further processing. Predominantly, floral waste consists of Tagetes sp. Our preliminary study is inspired by the fact that floral waste has an immense potential to develop value added products through microbiological interventions by utilizing the natural attenuation property of autochthonous microbes. This led to planning of bio-prospective study aimed to screen indigenous pigment producing fungal isolates from Tagetes sp. with diversified applications in healthcare, textile, food and pharmaceutical industries. Two promiscuous isolates with pigment producing efficacy were screened by Solid State Fermentation (SSF) and Submerged Fermentation (SmF) and were identified as Mucor sp. and Penicillium sp. Briefly, an attempt was made to ascertain anti-microbial efficacy of Bacillus sp. by Disc Diffusion Assay through Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) against pigment produced by both the fungal isolates with Chloremphenicol, Amoxycillin and Vancomycin as positive controls.

从花卉废弃物中筛选产色素真菌作为潜在的抗微生物工具

在印度，花卉废物管理似乎是分散的。花卉浪费的主要来源是泛印度地区的宗教供品。当然，被恰当地称为寺庙废物的花卉废物要么被倾倒到邻近的地表水和溪流中，要么与城市固体废物堆积在一起进行进一步处理。花卉废弃物主要由万寿菊(Tagetes sp.)组成。我们的初步研究灵感来自于这样一个事实，即花卉废弃物具有巨大的潜力，通过微生物干预，利用本地微生物的自然衰减特性，开发增值产品。因此，我们计划开展生物前瞻性研究，以筛选在医疗保健、纺织、食品和制药等行业具有广泛应用价值的天然产色素真菌分离株。通过固态发酵(SSF)和深层发酵(SmF)筛选到两株具有产色素效果的混杂菌株，鉴定为Mucor sp.和Penicillium sp.。简单地说，以氯霉素、阿莫西林和万古霉素为阳性对照，通过最小抑制浓度(MIC)的碟扩散法测定芽孢杆菌sp.对这两株真菌产生的色素的抑菌效果。显著的(p)
