Blue Spirulina Extract
Phycocyanin is a dark blue powder isolated from spirulina. It is mainly found in cyanobacteria,
red algae and crypto-algae. Phycocyanin is also commonly divided into C-phycocyanin and R-phycocyanin,
the former mainly found in cyanobacteria, the latter mainly found in red algae, and both in crypto-algae.
Its function is to absorb light (orange yellow) energy and transfer light energy.
It is not only a protein, but also an excellent natural food coloring, but also a good health food.

Introduce of Phycocyanin
As one of the three primary colors of nature, blue is the main player of deploying a variety of tones,
compared with the more common colors, blue is particularly mysterious.
Its bright and gorgeous color attracts consumers of all stages to come to 'grow grass'. In recent years,
the hot blue ice cream, blue candy, etc., a variety of food and beverage based on blue have appeared, and the voice and pursuit continue to heat up.
Phycocyanin is a natural edible blue pigment extracted and refined from spirulina. The main component of phycocyanin is phycocyanin.
The appearance of extracted phycocyanin is blue to dark blue powder. Easily soluble in water, the solution is also bright blue to dark blue;
The product has good stability for light and heat, and the difference between synthetic pigments is that algal blue does not have dyeing,
and it will not stain blue on the tongue after consumption.
Function of Phycocyanin
1. Phycocyanin is a collagen-like protein with antioxidant, moisturizing, anti-allergic, anti-inflammatory and freckle-removing effects.
2. Phycocyanin can help regulate the synthesis of a variety of important enzymes needed by the human body,
which plays an important role in inhibiting the growth of cancer cells and promoting the regeneration of human cells.
At the same time, it can also regulate the human immune system
and improve the human body's resistance to diseases.
3. Phycocyanin also has a very prominent effect in liver protection.
4. Phycocyanin is blue and fluorescent, and can be used as a photodynamic research reagent in biology and cytology.It can also be used as a biochemical marker and fluorescent agent.
5. Phycocyanin is the most important light-sensitive protein in the phycobilin series, and it is the light-trapping antenna in algal cells.The product used in leaf fertilization can obviously promote photosynthesis of plants, and make crops have antiviral and antibacterial effects.
Application of Phycocyanin
(1) Natural food coloring: phycocyanin is a water-soluble pigment,
non-toxic, pure blue, clear and lovely, can be used as a food coloring agent, cosmetic additive.
(2) Medicine and health food: phycocyanin in vitro experiment has the effect of stimulating red blood cell colony production,
similar to erythropoietin (EPO).A variety of phycocyanin compound drugs have been successfully developed abroad,and the Japanese Kangpai AIDS Research Institute has successfully reported that phycocyanin can improve anemia and increase hemoglobin.
(3) Special reagents for biology, chemistry and cytology experiments:
phycocyanin blue and fluorescent, can be used as biological, cytology some photodynamic research reagents
