Stable Isolation of Phycocyanin from Spirulina platensis Associated with High-Pressure Extraction Process
A method for stably purifying a functional dye, phycocyanin from Spirulina platensis was developed by a hexane extraction process combined with high pressure. This was necessary because this dye is known to be very unstable during normal extraction processes. The purification yield of this method wa...
