藻蓝蛋白作为蓝色天然色素蛋白,具有抗氧化、清除体内自由基、增强机体免疫力、抗炎、保肝护肝等生理功能及高效的荧光特性,被广泛应用于食品、化妆品、医药、分子探针等领域。现今制约藻蓝蛋白大规模商业化生产的主要原因是没有稳定、高效、经济的制备工艺。文中综述了近几年藻蓝蛋白制备工艺中发展较快、实用性较强的工艺技术,并在此基础上提出了一种工艺方案。

Phycocyanin,a natural blue dye,has been widely used in food,cosmetics,medicine,and molecular probes due to its physiological properties such as anti-oxidant,radical scavenging,immunology improving,and hepatocyte protection.Without a stable-effective-economic system,the production of phycocyanin in large scale will not be realized.This paper summarizes several powerful technologies developed rapidly in recent years.The purpose is to offer some references for the study of how to produce phycocyanin effectively.
