Phycocyanin from Spirulina sp: influence of processing of biomass on phycocyanin yield, analysis of efficacy of extraction methods and stability studies on phycocyanin

, 1999
A number of drying methods studied for the processing of Spirulina (crossflow dried, spray dried and oven dried) resulted in approximately 50% loss of phycocyanin. Therefore fresh biomass was suitable for phycocyanin extraction. Of the extraction methods

Combinational biosynthesis and characterization of a fluorescent 82 beta-phycocyanin of Spirulina platensis

, 2012
To biosynthesize fluorescent Spirulina platensis (Sp) beta-phycocyanin (PC) in Escherichia coli, a BLASTP search for homologs of the cpeS gene, a chromophore lyase, was performed against the Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 (S6) proteome.
