Red Yeast as a Sustainable Platform for Bio-Oil and Natural Pigment Production
Abstract: Oleaginous yeast represents a promising biotechnological platform for the sustainable production ofbio-oil, an alternative to fossil-derived fuels. These microorganisms can accumulate lipids up to 20–70% of their dry cell weight, primarily in the form of triacylglycerols that are structurally similar toplant and animal oils. Among them, certain species exhibit distinctive red or pink pigmentation andare collectively referred to as red yeasts. These yeasts not only synthesize significant amounts ofstorage lipids …
