Stabilising phycocyanin by anionic micelles [PDF]
Phycocyanins are pigment-protein complexes with potential application as natural food colourants. The perceived colour of phycocyanins varies with pH, and a method to stabilise the colour over a broad range of pH values is requested by the food industry. In this work, the stabilising effect of sodium dodecyl sulphate (SDS) micelles on pH-induced colour

Phycocyanin with Modified Chromophores [PDF]
Phycocyanin plays an important role in collecting light energy and transfering it to the reaction center (1,2). In vivo, this chromoprotein is highly aggregated as part of the phycobilisomes (3–5). In vitro, in buffers of low ionic strenght, the phycobilisomes dissociate.
