Phycocyanin is a dark blue powder isolated from spirulina.It is mainly found in cyanobacteria, red algae and cryptoalgae.Phycocyanin is usually divided into c-phycocyanin, which is found mainly in cyanobacteria, and r-phycocyanin, which is found mainly in red algae, both of which are found in cryptoalgae.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 pigment, and also a good health food.
Phycocyanin is one of the rare pigment proteins in nature. It is not only brightly colored, but also a nutrient-rich protein with complete amino acid composition and high content of essential amino acid.Phycocyanin has the functions of anti-cancer, promoting the regeneration of blood cells, maintaining ovaries and promoting the synthesis of elastin in human body.At the beginning of the 21st century, in Europe, America, Japan and other countries, phycocyanin was widely used as a high level natural pigment in food and cosmetics, and was made into biochemical drugs.
