The present study is aimed at isolating bacteria from eggs white that can produce pigments and are potentially used in textile industries as dyes. Generally, bacteria produce pigments for various reasons, and it plays an important role. Some pigments produced by the bacteria show antimicrobial activity against pathogens. These antimicrobial agents or substances produced by the bacteria are successfully used for preventing and treating microbial diseases. Pigments like carotenoids, melanin, flavin, violacein, prodigiosin showed distinct antimicrobial effect against many pathogenic bacteria. Contaminated eggs may produce bacteria like Salmonella spp., Proteus spp., Bacillus spp., Pseudomonas spp. and Staphylococcus spp., which have flagella that allow them to penetrate through the pores. These bacteria were extracted by using organic solvents and are purified and characterized by thin layer chromatography and optimized to dyeing parameters. The obtained dye serves as alternative source to chemical dyes.
