Phycocyanin is a natural blue pigment-protein complex derived from blue-green algae, primarily spirulina. It is a type of phycobiliprotein with strong antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and immune-boosting properties. Its vibrant blue color and functional benefits make it a valuable ingredient in multiple industries. In the food and beverage industry, phycocyanin is used as a natural colorant in products such as confectionery, dairy, beverages, and plant-based foods. The nutraceutical and pharmaceutical industries leverage its health-promoting properties for dietary supplements, immune boosters, and therapeutic formulations. Additionally, phycocyanin is used in cosmetics and personal care products due to its antioxidant effects, which help in anti-aging and skin protection.
In June 2024, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved three novel phycocyanin extracts for use in food products, enhancing their appeal as natural colorants. This certification is expected to boost demand in the food and beverage industry as companies seek natural alternatives to synthetic hues. ? https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2022/11/10/2022-24429/listing-of-color-additives-exempt-from-certification-spirulina-extract”
