Features
The blue spirulina protein M18 is a natural blue pigment extracted from spirulina, which is rich in nutritional content.
Phycocyanin is produced by the combination of phycocyanin base and protein.
May be beneficial in:
- Boosting the immune system.
- Eliminating inflammation
- Increasing energy
- High antioxidant capacity. The phycocyanin spirulina powder can also be used as a health food raw material.
Blue spirulina powder M18 has poor heat, light, and acid stability, while it is stable under weak acid and neutral conditions (PH4.5-8). However, precipitation will occur under acid conditions, and strong alkali can make phycocyanin discolored. It has poor stability to metal ions and poor chromaticity.
When added to other solvents, it dissolves quickly in cold and warm water, precipitation occurs if used in 100% alcohol, but it can be dissolved in solutions with less than 20% alcohol.

What’s the difference between E10, E18, M18, E25, and Spirulina Liquid Extract?
- The color value, ingredient and content of phycocyanin varied with the type of phycocyanin. The larger the number, the higher the color value, the higher the content of phycocyanin, and the fewer other ingredients.
- The difference between E18 and M18: E18 ingredients: 30% trehalose; M18 ingredients: 30% maltodextrin, NO SUGAR!
- E18 is the most widely used specification in the world, with high-cost performance and excellent solubility, which is our most recommended specification.
- Application: E10 and E18 are suitable for added to food, and e25 can be used for medical and nutritional care.
- E10, E18, M18, E25 and E30 are in the form of powder. No water can prevent oxidation and degrade blue protein. Therefore, phycocyanin can be preserved for several years.
- Spirulina liquid extract is a kind of blue honey-like liquid, which dissolves quickly, avoids dust flying and is more convenient to use.
