Isolation and characterization of pigmented bacteria for Dye Sensitized Solar Cell (DSSC) application

Bacteria regularly produce pigments for different reasons and they assume as an essential part on the earth. The purpose of this project was to isolate and characterise pigmented bacteria which was utilised for the development of Dye Sensitised Solar Cells (DSSC). Pigmented bacteria was isolated fro...
