AB  - C-Phycocyanin (C-PC), the major protein of cyanobacteria Arthrospira platensis, is a phycobiliprotein with potent biological activity. It has several beneficial effects, including anti-oxidant, anti-inflammatory, immunomodulatory, and anti-cancer. A significant challenge for the broader application of C-PC in the food industry is its stability in food processing conditions, such
as increased light exposure, temperature, and high pressure and drying. This work aimed to investigate if the immobilization of C-PC onto alginate beads could improve its stability. C-PC was
immobilized by dropping the solution of C-PC and 1% alginate (final concentration) in the solution of 2% CaCl2. Both protein/alginate mixture and CaCl2 were kept at pH 4. Immobilized CPC
was treated for 30 min at 65°C, by high pressure up to 4500 bar, and incubated under light exposure for a month. Alginate beads with immobilized C-PC were also left to dry in the fridge and kept for a month. C-PC was extracted from alginate beads by immersing them in 20 mM phosphate buffer, pH 7. The stability of C-PC was assessed by a color change and UV-VIS spectroscopy. Immobilized C-PC was stable under all tested conditions, with only small aggregation and color change appearing
after high-pressure treatment. Immobilization of C-PC by alginate thus shows promise for its efficient stabilization under food processing conditions.
