“…Non-producers were more sensitive to the immune system. The fact that they do not produce pyocyanin was identified with the non-expression of phzM and phzS, however, this did not prevent the bacterium from expressing other phenazines [131], as well as showing other phenotypes related to virulence [132].…”

Pyocyanin was the first natural phenazine described. The molecule is synthesized by about 95% of the strains of Pseudomonas aeruginosa. From discovery up to now, pyocyanin has been characterised by a very rich and avant-garde history, which includes its use in antimicrobial therapy, even before the discovery of penicillin opened the era of antibiotic therapy, as well as its use in electric current generation. Exhibiting an exuberant blue colour and being easy to obtain, this pigment is the subject of the present review, aiming to narrate its history as well as to unveil its mechanisms and suggest new horizons for applications in different areas of engineering, biology and biotechnology.
