...Show More Authors

The red tripyrrole pigment known as prodigiosin (PG), which belongs to the prodigiosin family, is an interesting substance that has attracted the attention of scientists due to its versatility. Thanks to its striking red pigment and distinctive chemical characteristics, prodigiosin has caught the attention of researchers seeking new solutions across a variety of disciplines. Serratia marcescens and other bacteria like Hahella chejuensis, Vibrio gazogenes, Pseudoalteromonas rubra, Janthinobacterium lividum, Actinomadura madurae, and Streptomyces coelicolor produce prodigiosin, a red pigment that functions as secondary metabolite. Prodigiosin has shown promising activity as an antibacterial agent in numerous experiments. Prodigiosin is a promising treatment for combating antibiotic-resistant strains and increasing effectiveness of current antibiotic treatments in the face of increasing environmental antibiotic resistance. Furthermore, numerous studies have shown that this natural pigment possesses anticancer characteristics through growth inhibition and spread of cancer cells by the induction of programmed cell death in cancer cells without seriously harming healthy cells. PG have antiviral, antiprotozoal, antifungal, and many applications in food industry. This study aims to elucidate chemical and biological properties of the dye and to assess its potential as a biotherapeutic alternative to conventional antibiotics in the treatment of pathogenic bacteria, fungi, and parasites. Furthermore, it explores the dye’s prospective role in cancer therapy and its application within the food industry as a natural colorant and preservative offering a safer substitute for synthetic additives known to have adverse effects on human health
