Abstract

See full text

A method for purifying phycocyanin from a phycocyanin-containing solution is provided. The method comprises a first step of partially purifying the solution by aqueous two-phase separation (ATPS) and a second step of purifying the phycocyanin by ammonium sulfate precipitation. The purified phycocyanin product can in some cases be of a sufficiently pure grade to be used as a food or cosmetic pigment.
