Abstract
A red pigment producing bacterial strain was screened from a freshwater fish body through isolating color bacteria in nature.This strain was identified as Serratia marcescens based on morphological,physiological characters and 16S rDNA gene sequence.This pigment was demonstrated belong to prodigiosin on the basis of UV spectrum and TLC.The yield of crude prodigiosin reached at 475 mg/L.
