| Abstract: | The present study is an attempt to isolate and optimize the fermentation
conditions of three fungus, namely Trichoderma
virens, Alternaria alternata and Curvularia lunata to get pigments for
the purpose of textile dyeing. Highest optical density has been achieved in
potato dextrose broth at 28ºC in 25 days under static conditions. Wool and silk
are dyed unmordanted with very good wash and rub fastness. Trichoderma virens has demonstrated antifungal property. There is
no adverse effect on the tensile strength of the fabric and on the human skin.
Paper and thin layer chromatography has revealed that the pigments are
multi-component in nature. |
