BILIPROTEINS FROM THE BUTTERFLY Pieris brassicae STUDIED BY TIME-RESOLVED FLUORESCENCE AND COHERENT ANTI-STOKES RAMAN SPECTROSCOPY [PDF]
The fluorescence decay time of the biliverdin IX7 chromophore present in biliproteins isolated from Pieris brassicae is determined to be 44 ± 3 ps. This value suggests a cyclic helical chromophore structure. The vibrational frequencies determined by CARS-

Application of phycocyanin from Arthrospira (Spirulina) platensis as a hair dye
Almost all of the current hair dye products today contain synthetic chemicals which may cause allergic reactions in some users. Phycocyanin (PC), a non-toxic cyanobacterial pigment, has been used in the food and cosmetics sectors. There are however, been

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.

Phycobilins are light harvesting pigments of cyanobacteria and red algae. In cyanobacteria, four phycobiliproteins are organized in phycobilisomes: phycocyanin (PC), allophycocyanin (APC), and often also phycoerythrocyanin (PEC) or phycoerythrin (PE ...

The In Vitro Anti-Tumor Activity of Phycocyanin against Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer Cells
Phycocyanin, a type of functional food colorant, is shown to have a potent anti-cancer property. Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is one of the most aggressive form of cancers with few effective therapeutic options.
