Phycocyanin
Phycocyanin is a deep blue powder isolated from spirulina. It mainly exists in cyanobacteria, red algae and cryptophytes. Phycocyanin is usually divided into C-phycocyanin and R-phycocyanin. The former mainly exists in cyanobacteria, while the latter mainly exists in red algae. Both types are present in cryptophytes. Its function is to absorb light (orange-yellow) energy and transfer light energy [1]. It is not only a protein but also an excellent natural food coloring and a good health food.
Specification:  90%
Soluble in water, insoluble in alcohol and oils.
Phycocyanin is one of the rare pigment proteins in nature. Not only is it brightly colored, but it is also a highly nutritious protein with a complete amino acid composition and a high content of essential amino acids.
Phycocyanin has the functions of anti-cancer, promoting blood cell regeneration, nourishing the ovaries, and stimulating the synthesis of elastin protein in the human body. In the early 21st century, in countries such as Europe, America, and Japan, phycocyanin was widely used as a high-quality natural pigment in food and cosmetics, and was also made into biochemical drugs. In 1986, the Conpaqi (confident) phycocyanin protein produced by the Konpa AIDS Research Institute in Japan and the CONFIDENCE Algae Nutrition Food Company was used as a rehabilitation medicine and nutritional food for cancer patients, leukemia patients, etc., and achieved remarkable therapeutic effects.
Phycocyanin can help regulate and synthesize a variety of important enzymes necessary for human metabolism. It plays a crucial role in inhibiting the growth of cancer cells and promoting the regeneration and maintenance of human cells, as well as facilitating the synthesis of elastin protein within the body. At the same time, phycocyanin regulates the human immune system, enhances the immune system function, and improves the body's resistance to diseases. Therefore, phycocyanin is vividly praised by food experts as "food diamond". It has excellent effects in the following aspects.
1. Anti-cancer cells, anti-tumor.
Phycocyanin has been proven to be able to inhibit the expansion of cancer cells. Scientists have discovered that phycocyanin has a significant function in inhibiting cancer cells. It can be made into an auxiliary treatment drug for anti-tumor, and used as an auxiliary treatment for chemotherapy to enhance the body's immunity. In a scientific experiment, when rats with liver cancer were fed with extracted phycocyanin, it was found that the survival rate of rats fed with phycocyanin was much higher than that of the control group. After 5 weeks, 90% of the treatment group rats survived, while only 25% of the untreated group survived. After 8 weeks, 25% of the treatment group rats survived, while all the rats in the untreated group died. This indicates that oral administration of phycocyanin can increase the survival rate of organisms with cancer.
2. Antioxidation, free radical removal.
Phycocyanin can promote cell activity, eliminate free radicals in the body, improve ovarian function, and promote the rapid synthesis of elastin protein in the body. According to scientific research, phycocyanin has the effect of stimulating red blood cell colony formation, similar (epo); it can adjust white blood cells and enhance the activity of lymphocytes; increase physical ability, promote red blood cell growth, and enhance the immune function of the body and promote growth and development.
3. Anti-allergy
On January 7th, a research team from Taiwan University published new research results, discovering that purified phycocyanin has inhibitory effects on all allergies.
Another function of phycobilin is as a fluorescent agent.
