Phycocyanins (PCYs) are a group of luxuriant bioactive compounds found in blue-green
algae with an estimated global market of about US $250 million within this decade. The …

Several microalgae species have been exploited due to their great biotechnological
potential for the production of a range of biomolecules that can be applied in a large variety …

The highest purity ratio of phycocyanin extract was obtained when fresh biomass was used
as raw material. The crude extract was purified by membrane process using microfiltration …

Abstract C-phycocyanin (C-PC) is a protein with bioactive properties, which is found mainly
in cyanobacteria and that is used as a natural food dye. Even though it is extensively …

In recent years, the development of healthier foods, richer in nutraceutical or functional
compounds, has been in great demand. Microalgae are attracting increasing attention, as …

C-phycocyanin (C-PC) is a blue colored accessory photosynthetic pigment found in
cyanobacteria. Some of the medicinal properties of Spirulina have been attributed to this …

Phycocyanin is a pigment of intense blue color, constituting the biomass of microalga such
as Spirulina. This pigment is sensitive to pH and this instability results in color change. Thus …

This study aimed to evaluate different parameters in the green process of organic Spirulina
biomass (SB) C-phycocyanin (C-PC) extraction to understand the impact on weight and oral …

The effects of C-phycocyanin extract, obtained from Spirulina biomass using a sustainable
method with water as solvent, on the white adipose tissue of male mice fed a high-fat diet …

In this study, flue gas from a power plant smokestack was applied to culture Spirulina
platensis microalgae. Our results will not only achieve the fixation of carbon from the …
