COLORANT

Phycocyanin is a natural dye, a valid alternative to artificial dye E133 for: ice creams, drinks, cocktails, baked goods, food products, dry foods, soaps, cosmetics and any product that you want to color with a natural and organic pigment.

Coloring power >250:  in a 10% solution, the coloring capacity of phycocyanin is greater than 250 color units. This type of measurement commonly refers to the absorbance at the typical wavelength of phycocyanin (approximately 620-630 nm), and is used to classify the quality or concentration of the coloring pigment.

Dosage as a natural dye: 100% water-soluble, from 0.05% to 0.5% per kg or liter that you want to color, based on the shade from light blue to cobalt blue. Tolerance: PH (from 4.0 to 8.0.). Stable coloring at low temperatures (up to 40°). Slow degradation at temperatures above 40°C. In an alcoholic environment, it tends to degrade, albeit slowly, after a few months.
