Cover Story: When searching for novel natural dyes, fungal pigments bear an untapped potential. Their fruiting bodies have a long history as artisanal dyes, but cultivation is difficult to scale up for industrial use. In this article, the biotechnological production of a yellow-orange colorant produced by submerged fermentation of the edible mushroom Laetiporus sulphureus was examined more closely. Identification of the best strain and media led to a final yield of 1 g L−1 laetiporic acid in a 7 L stirred tank bioreactor. The colorant successfully dyed foods, cosmetics, and textiles. It can potentially replace petrochemically based synthetic dyes and thus support the development of a circular bioeconomy. View this paper
