abstract |
The present invention relates to a method for producing monacolin K, which comprises irradiating UV-C and NTG with a monascusin mutant Monascus ruber ACEP-1 < / RTI > KACC 93162P, and Hong Kong rice cultured in rice. The monascus mutant Monascus ruber ACEP-1 KACC 93162P is excellent in the productivity of monacolin K versus the conventional mutant of P. vannamei, and is capable of producing orange and red pigments and is also applicable to pigment-related fields. |
