ABSTRACT
Halophilic bacteria is grown in high saline condition and sources of industrial and pharmaceutical purpose. The aim of this research work is extraction of pigments from halophilic bacteria is isolated from marakanam salt pan. Soil is the potential source for halophilic bacteria and its grown in halophilic agar media with supplement of NaCl concentrations. The strains MS1 and MS2 produced the light orange and pale yellow color pigments. Pigments produced strains were identified by morphological. Biochemical and microscopical characterization were recorded. Keywords: Halophilic bacteria, Pigments, Saltpan, Pharmaceutical, Soil
