Physico-chemical factors and nanomaterial-mediated optimization of pigment yield from a psychrotrophic marine Citricoccus-like isolate of an Arctic fjord

Bacterial pigments have broad industrial applications and are relatively easy to scale up. However, Arctic microbial sources remain largely unexplored. In this study, we isolated a yellow-pigmented bacterium, PS104, from the Arctic Ny-Ålesund fjord in Kongsfjorden, Svalbard, Norway. Biochemical assays and 16S rRNA gene...
