Effect of Ultrasonic Extraction on Production and Structural Changes of C-Phycocyanin from Marine Spirulina maxima
This work first showed that very high amounts of phycocyanins, such as 11.3 mg/mL C-phycocyanin (C-PC), 3.1 mg/mL allophycocyanin (APC), and 0.8 mg/mL phycoerythrin (PE), can be obtained using an ultrasonic extraction process (UE) with a 60 kHz frequency and 3 h of process time at 25 °C, without any other pretreatments. These yields were higher than those from most conventional water extraction...
متن کاملCleavage of phycocyanobilin from C-phycocyanin.
The chromophore of C-phycocyanin, phycocyanobilin, was cleaved from the protein with methanol, concentrated hydrochloric acid, or subtilisin BPN’. The pigments obtained were converted to their dimethyl esters and purified by preparative high pressure liquid chromatography and examined for purity by analytical high pressure liquid chromatography on silica gel. They were characterized by proton t...
متن کاملThe characterization of C-phycocyanin from an extremely halo-tolerant blue-green alga, Coccochloris elabens.
C-Phycocyanin was isolated and purified from a uni-algal culture of an extremely halo-tolerant blue-green alga, Coccochloris elabens. This alga can be grown under laboratory conditions in 25% (w/v) NaCl. Purified halophile phycocyanin was characterized by amino acid analysis and the measurement of sedimentation velocity, fluorescence polarization and immunodiffusion as a function of protein con...
متن کاملRecent Developments in Production and Biotechnological Applications of C-Phycocyanin
An extensive range of pigments including phycobiliproteins are present in algae. C-phycocyanin (C-PC), a phycobiliprotein, is one of the key pigments of Spirulina, a microalgae used in many countries as a dietary supplement. Algal pigments have massive commercial value as natural colorants in nutraceutical, cosmetics, and pharmaceutical industries, besides their health benefits. At present, inc...
متن کاملPhycocyanin, cyanobacterial antioxidant: structure, function and applications
Phycobilins, open-chain tetrapyrrole pigment molecules, serve as accessory photosynthetic light-harvesting pigments in red algae and cyanobacteria. Phycobilin pigments are covalently linked with proteins and formed phycobiliproteins are organized into large macromolecular complexes called phycobilisomes on the top of the thylakoid membranes. In deep water, only green light is available, thus ph...
