Abstract

The optimal cultural conditions for production of the bluish purple prgment by the cultivation of Streptomyces californicus KS-89 were determined with various substrates. The carbon and nitrogen sources on the production of pigment indicated that soluble strarch and glycerol as carbon sources and sodium glutamate sodium nitrate as nitrogen sources given a mzimum yield of the pigment at 3$0^{\circ}C$ for 7 days. The addition of ferrous sulfate was essential. The highest production of pigment was observed with cultivation in a medium containing 2.0% soluble starch 1% glycerol 0.5% sodium glutamate 0.05% sodim nitrate 0.001% L-proline 0.025% K2HPO4 0.005% MgSO4 .7H2O, 0.04% FeSO4.7H2O, 0.001% thiamine.HCl and pH7.0.
