Food Grade Phycocyanin Powder E6

What is Phycocyanin Powder E6?

Phycocyanin is one of the main functional proteins in Spirulina, accounting for 20 per cent of its dry base. Extracted from Spirulina, phycocyanin is the auxiliary photosynthetic pigment in Spirulina, which is involved in photosynthesis and the main source of its colour. Moreover, phycocyanin powder is a water-soluble protein that is easily digested and absorbed by the human body, making it a good source of food protein.

It has antioxidant activity, and studies have shown that phycocyanin can regulate metabolic disorders caused by the scavenging and production of free radicals, which are directly or indirectly linked to the occurrence of many diseases. Phycocyanin powder can be used as a natural coloring agent and raw material for nutraceuticals in the food industry. It can be developed as an additive in the cosmetic industry. It also has great potential for development in the pharmaceutical industry.

Green Spring Technology supplies Food Grade Phycocyanin Powder E6, which is sourced from seawater or freshwater farmed spirulina, rinsed, crushed, extracted, centrifuged to take the supernatant, concentrated, added with stabilizer, and then freeze-dried. The production process only adds water as an additive, so this algal blue protein powder E6 is a very safe and healthy natural blue pigment, with no solvent residues, and no pesticide residues, safe and effective.

Green Spring has a systematic quality management system, which is strictly implemented and organises production in accordance with ISO, HACCP and other quality standards. We have a rigorous internal quality control process to ensure that quality standards are met. All the products we supply meet international standards such as European Pharmacopoeia, US Pharmacopoeia, Japanese Pharmacopoeia, etc. Authoritative third-party test reports are available.

Applications:

In the Food Field:

In GB2760-2014 National Standard for Food Safety, Standard for the Use of Food Additives, phycocyanin powder has been listed as a natural food colouring agent allowed to be used in China, which can be applied in candy, chewing gum, ice cream, beverage and other industries. Different from the alcohol-soluble indigo pigment widely used nowadays, phycocyanin powder not only has excellent water solubility, but also is rich in nutrients and has a variety of physiological active functions, and at the same time does not produce toxic side effects, so it is a kind of natural and safe food colouring with development potential and market potential.

For Health Products:

Blue spirulina phycocyanin powder is anti-inflammatory and antioxidant promotes wound healing, prevents allergies, slows down aging, improves immune function, and has been used as a nutraceutical additive.
