A naturally occurring blue pigment now called indigoidine, 135 years in the making, now accessible through biotechnology – and it’s history.
HISTORY
1890
Microbes that produce a blue pigment were discovered and investigated by a German Chemist, Claessen
1939
The blue pigment was isolated and investigated by another chemist and named indigoicine. The structure remained unknown still.
1965
The chemical structure of indigoidine was discovered after multiple years of study by Richard Kuhn. Making the pigment remained challenging since it is produced at low yields by natural microbes.
2002
The genes responsible for indigoidine biosynthesis were discovered, showing the natural production pathway of indigoidine for the first time
2012
The first genetically modified organism makes indigoicine.
2019
Multiple organisms have been engineered to make indigoine by academic labs. The product is nearly ready for a commercial application.
Now
Shreenika launches an industrial process for affordable indigoidine for the masses.
