| Summary: | Investigation of the new cyanobacterial strains, for use as potential sources of bioactive substances, including phycobiliproteins, encounters some difficulties due to presence of toxins (microcystins) produced by some cyanobacterial strains. Cyanobacteria phycobiliproteins are natural pigments with high potential for application as colorants in food, cosmetics and pharmaceuticals. The objective of the study was the elaboration of a procedure for Anabaena propinqua Setchell. et Gardn. phycobiliproteins separation from microcystins and a procedure of partial purification of phycobiliproteins from cyanobacteria Anabenopsis sp. The antioxidant capacity of partial purified phycoerythrin from Anabenopsis sp. was established. |
