Designing the Future of Food: Challenges to Innovation in Microalgae‐Derived Blue Protein Systems

Sustainable Food Proteins, Volume 4, Issue 1, March 2026.
This image illustrates the key factors in protein extraction from microalgae, along with the main sustainability opportunities and associated risks. ABSTRACT Microalgae are emerging as promising sources of “blue proteins,” a term used to categorize aquatic proteins derived from marine and freshwater organisms.

Progress in biosynthesis of phycobiliprotein [PDF]

Chinese Science Bulletin, 2018
Photosynthesis has existed on the earth for about 4 billion years, and the photosynthetic organisms have emerged with the production of photosynthesis. In order to effectively capture light energy and adapt their living environment, algae and higher plants have evolved different light-harvesting antenna systems during the long evolution, one is the ...

Microalgae Techno‐Functional Properties in Bread, Cookies, and Pasta Products: A Review

Comprehensive Reviews in Food Science and Food Safety, Volume 25, Issue 2, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Microalgae are gaining increasing attention in the food industry not only for their nutritional richness but also for their promising techno‐functional properties. Research shows that isolated compounds from microalgae exhibit excellent techno‐functional properties as emulsifiers and thickeners, sometimes outperforming commercial additives ...

Safety evaluation of blue galdieria extract as a food additive

EFSA Journal, Volume 24, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract The EFSA Panel on Food Additive and Flavourings (FAF Panel) provides a scientific opinion on the safety of blue galdieria extract as a food additive. Blue galdieria extract is an enzymatically treated C‐phycocyanin extract derived from the lysed biomass of the microalgae Galdieria sulphuraria.

Photon‐to‐Heat Energy Harvesting Fluorescent Protein Coatings for Thermoelectrics

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 8, 9 February 2026.
Fluorescent proteins (FPs) are used in light‐absorbing coatings on thermoelectric generators (TEGs) to convert light into heat and generate electricity. By tuning the properties of FP‐doped polymer matrices, photothermal efficiencies of up to 48% have been achieved.

Nutritional Composition of Seven Selected Seaweed Species Commonly Available in Bangladesh: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

eFood, Volume 7, Issue 1, February 2026.
Nutritional Composition of Seven Selected Seaweed Available in Bangladesh ABSTRACT This study systematically reviewed macronutrients, micronutrients, and potential health risks associated with heavy metals in seaweed. The selected seaweed species contained considerable protein (approximately 15–20 g/100 g dry weight), ash (approximately 15–28 g/100 g),

Influence of Critical Parameters on the Extraction of Concentrated C-PE from Thermotolerant Cyanobacteria

BioTech
This work aimed to identify the influence of pH, molarity, w/v fraction, extraction time, agitation, and either a sodium (Na2HPO4·7H2O-NaH2PO4·H2O) or potassium buffer (K2HPO4-KH2PO4) used in the extraction of C-phycoerythrin (C-PE) from a thermotolerant

Algal Proteins: Extraction, Application, and Challenges Concerning Production

Foods, 2017
Population growth combined with increasingly limited resources of arable land and fresh water has resulted in a need for alternative protein sources. Macroalgae (seaweed) and microalgae are examples of under-exploited “crops”.
