Özet

Phycocyanin is a blue-colored pigment-protein complex that exhibits numerous biofunctions such as anti-inflammation, antioxidation, antitumor, neuroprotective effect, and immunological enhancement. Purified phycocyanin has pharmaceutical and nutraceutical applications. In addition, as a nontoxic and non-carcinogenic natural coloring agent, phycocyanin has many applications in the food and cosmetic industries. This chapter describes a protocol for extraction and analytical grade purification of phycocyanin from cyanobacteria. The purification steps include (1) extraction of phycocyanin from biomass, (2) ammonium sulfate precipitation of phycocyanin and dialysis, and (3) purification of phycocyanin by gel filtration and ion-exchange chromatography. © 2018, Springer Science+Business Media New York.
