“…Several previous studies showed that actinomycetes have good antibacterial activity. For example, Nocardia from Indian mangrove ecosystems (Manikkam et al 2019), Actinomyces from Nipah mangrove sediment (Yanti et al 2020), Corynebacterium the sediment of Valparaíso bay, Chile (Claverías et al 2019), Micrococcus from seawater (Kumari et al 2020), and Streptomyces from mangrove soil sediment (Al-Dhabi et al 2019;Al-Farraj et al 2020;Fahmy 2020;Kripra et al 2020;Sabido et al 2020).…”

Abstract. Rozirwan, Muda HI, Ulqodry TZ. 2020. Short Communication: Antibacterial potential of Actinomycetes isolated from mangrove sediment in Tanjung Api-Api, South Sumatra, Indonesia. Biodiversitas 21: 5723-5728. Actinomycetes play an important role in the decomposition process of organic matter in mangrove sediments. This study was carried out to identify and evaluate the antagonistic activity of actinomycetes from mangrove sediment against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus. Identification of actinomycetes was performed based on morphological dan physiological characters. The antagonistic test was carried out against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus. A total of ten isolates had been successfully isolated and grouped into eight genera, including; Oerskovia H1, Micrococcus H2, Nocardia H3, Sporichtya H5, Corynebacterium H6, Jonesia H7, Actinomyces H10, and Streptomyces H8, H11, H12. Actinomycetes from mangrove sediment were gram-positive bacillus. The shape of the colony varied from circular to filamentous and irregular, with medium and large colony sizes. The colony appears white or yellow. The surface is convex and flat, aerobes and facultative anaerobes; capable of fermenting glucose. Five isolates have very strong growth inhibition activity against E. coli: Nocardia H3 (27.81mm ± 1.39), Actinomycetes H10 (27.75mm ± 2.48), Corynebacterium H6 (27.69mm ± 2.39), Micrococcus H2 (18.55mm ± 2.44), and Streptomyces H8 (17.92mm ± 2.70) while Streptomyces H8 (24.83mm ± 2.08), and Actinomycetes H10 (16.06mm ± 2.49) were active against S. aureus.

“…The amount of pigment increased when bacteria were cultivated in seawater mixed with bovine, bacto‐tryptone, and neopeptone at 4°C [31]. Fish, octopuses, and mussels, among other marine creatures, were shown to enhance pigment formation [32]. Acinetobacter wofii was shown to produce more pink pigment when supplied with methanol as its sole carbon source [33].…”

Color serves as the initial attraction and offers a pleasing aspect. While synthetic colorants have been popular for many years, their adverse environmental and health effects cannot be overlooked. This necessitates the search for natural colorants, especially microbial colorants, which have proven and more effective. Pigment‐producing microorganisms offer substantial benefits. Natural colors improve product marketability and bestow additional benefits, including antioxidant, antiaging, anticancer, antiviral, antimicrobial, and antitumor properties. This review covers the various types of microbial pigments, the methods to enhance their production, and their cosmetic and therapeutic applications. We also address the challenges faced during the commercial production of microbial pigments and propose potential solutions.
