Evaluation of Monascus ruber Inoculum Preparation Strategies and Surfactant Supplementation to Enhance Biopigment Production in a Xylose-Based Medium Derived from Ethanol Biorefinery By-Products
Bioenergy biorefineries generate lignocellulosic by-products rich in fermentable sugars that can serve as renewable feedstocks for the production of high-value bioproducts, including microbial pigments with promising bioactive properties (antioxidant, antimicrobial, and anticancer). Therefore, this study aimed to ident...
