| CAS NO | 11016-15-2 |
| Test Method | UV |
| Appearance | Blue Powder |
| Solubility | Water-soluble |
| Shelf life | 2 years |
Specifications | E6 | E18 | E25 | E40 organic |
Protein Percent | 15~20% | 35~40% | 60~70% | 80~85% |
Phycocyanin Percent | 20~25% | 50~55% | 77% | 93% |
Phycocyanin can help regulate and synthesize enzymes required for human metabolism, and play an important role in inhibiting the growth of cancer cells, promoting the regeneration of human cells, maintaining ovaries, and promoting the synthesis of elastin in the human body. At the same time, phycocyanin regulates the human immune system and enhances immunity. System function, improve the body's resistance to disease.
1. Anti-cancer and anti-tumor.
2. anti-oxidation, scavenging free radicals.
3. Anti-allergic.
Natural food coloring: Phycocyanin is a water-soluble pigment, non-toxic, pure blue, and can be used as food coloring agent and cosmetic additive.
(1) Wall breaking: The first step of extraction requires enzymatic hydrolysis of the cell wall of cyanobacteria.
(2) Dissolution: Dissolve phycocyanin into water first.
(3) Separation: Separation to obtain crude product.
(4) Purification: The crude product needs to be further purified to remove impurity proteins to obtain phycocyanin.
