Hot Sell Good Quality Pure Fine Blue Spirulina Phycocyanin Powder
Product Description
Phycocyanin is an extraordinary pigment from the light-harvesting phycobiliprotein family, sharing its lineage with allophycocyanin and phycoerythrin. Serving as an accessory pigment to chlorophyll, all phycobiliproteins are uniquely water-soluble, which prevents them from existing within the membrane like carotenoids. Instead, they form aggregate clusters that grace the membrane, known as phycobilisomes.

Phycocyanin is the vibrant bluish pigment facilitating photosynthesis in blue-green algae, or cyanobacteria.
Constituting up to 20% of the protein in cyanobacteria, it binds seamlessly with photosynthesizing membranes.
Phycocyanin functions as a nitrogen-storing molecule, notable for its stability and metal-free nature.
Phycocyanin is also celebrated for its antioxidant prowess, efficiently scavenging OH and RO radicals. It may potentially
match the efficacy of some NSAIDs in inflammation treatment and positively impact liver microsomal lipid peroxidation.
The pigments derived from phycocyanin, including C-phycocyanin and Allophycocyanin, exhibit fluorescent properties,
proving invaluable in immunoassay kits. Phycocyanin's selective cell attachment simplifies cellular tracking.
Renowned for its safety, it is utilized as a coloring agent in biological research and as a natural dye in various foods and cosmetics.
