Production of angkak through co-culture of Monascus purpureus and Monascus ruber

Abstract: Angkak (red mold rice, red yeast rice, Chinese red rice) is a traditional Chinese medicine produced by solid-state fermentation of cooked non-glutinous rice with Monascus species. The secondary metabolite of Monascus species, monacolin K /lovastatin, has been proven to lower blood lipid levels. In this study, a coculture of Monascus purpureus MTCC 369 and Monascus ruber MTCC 1880 was used for angkak production.
