Monascus-Derived Biologically Active Compounds Fermented by Khao Klong Broken Rice (Brown Rice) as Bio-Ingredient for Anti-Aging Potential: Chemical Profiles, Antioxidant, Anti-Collagenase, and Anti-Tyrosinase Activities
This study aimed to optimize pigment production from Monascus purpureus TISTR3090 using Khao Klong broken rice (brown rice) as a solid substrate and to evaluate the antioxidant and anti-aging activities of the resulting pigment extracts. Solid-state fermentation showed a progressive increase in red pigment production,...
