Influence of thermal and electrical effects of ohmic heating on C-phycocyanin p...
Santos, Pedro Miguel Ferreira; Nunes, R.; De Biasio, Filomena; Spigno, Giorgia; Gorgoglione, Domenico; Teixeira, J. A.; Rocha, Cristina M. R.Spirulina platensis is interesting for the food industry due to its overall composition and high content in C-phycocyanin. However, the sensitivity of C-phycocyanin makes its extraction a delicate process. The present study focuses on assessing the use of ohmic heating (OH) in the recovery of C-phycocyanin and other relevant compounds as an alternative method to freeze-thawing or conventional heating.
