Phycocyanin Supplier in Malaysia
Phycocyanin supplier for food, nutraceutical, cosmetic and laboratory buyers in Malaysia. Phycocyanin is an intense blue phycobiliprotein pigment isolated from a declared cyanobacterial source. It is supplied as a water-dispersible powder, concentrated liquid or purified analytical preparation.
Food-grade powder supports beverage powders, confectionery, dairy-style systems and other colour applications, while liquid concentrate offers a pre-dispersed option for compatible processes. Nutraceutical and cosmetic grades are selected by source, protein profile and microbiological criteria. Analytical grades use a more tightly defined purity ratio.
Colour strength and purity values must be read with their test method. Heat, light, acidity and the surrounding matrix can influence stability, so buyers should also state their process conditions and carrier restrictions. Phycocyanin is not the same product as whole spirulina biomass or a finished colour blend.
Send the form, source, colour or purity specification, intended process, quantity and delivery location with the enquiry. Availability, packing, documentation, route and timing are confirmed with the quotation. No health claim, fixed source or current stock position is implied.

Phycocyanin grades and forms
We supply several forms to suit different formulating and dosing setups. If you need a size that is not listed, ask us.
| Grade | Form | Assay | Typical use | Packing |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Food-grade phycocyanin powder | water-dispersible blue powder | — | Beverage powders, confectionery, dairy-style products and other food formulations where the buyer specifies colour strength, solubility, source and microbiological limits. | Light-protective pack format is confirmed with the quotation. |
| Concentrated liquid phycocyanin | blue aqueous concentrate in a declared stabilising system | — | Liquid beverage, syrup and process trials that need a pre-dispersed form and can accommodate the concentrate's carrier, solids and storage conditions. | Pack format and declared stabilising system are confirmed with the quotation. |
| Nutraceutical or cosmetic grade phycocyanin | fine blue powder | — | Capsules, powdered blends and cosmetic formulations where source, colour ratio, purity profile, residual material and document criteria are specified. | Pack format and available documentation are confirmed with the quotation. |
| Analytical or high-purity phycocyanin | purified blue powder or solution | — | Laboratory standards, protein studies and analytical development where the method requires a defined purity ratio and carefully controlled storage. | Small pack format is confirmed with the quotation. |

Phycocyanin applications
Safety and handling
Keep phycocyanin tightly sealed and protected from light, heat and moisture. Follow the storage temperature and opened-container conditions stated for the quoted powder or liquid grade because colour and protein stability are formulation dependent.
Common questions about Phycocyanin
Is phycocyanin the same as spirulina powder?
No. Phycocyanin is the isolated blue phycobiliprotein fraction, while spirulina powder is the broader dried biomass with many components. They have different colour strength, composition and specifications.
Which phycocyanin form should I request?
A water-dispersible powder suits dry storage and many beverage or food processes. A liquid concentrate suits processes that need pre-dispersion, while analytical grades are selected for defined purity rather than bulk colour use.
What does phycocyanin purity mean?
Suppliers may express purity or colour using a spectral ratio or another method. The number is only comparable when the test basis is stated, so include the required ratio and method in the enquiry.
Can phycocyanin tolerate every food process?
No. Its colour and protein structure can be affected by heat, light, acidity and the surrounding formulation. Describe the process conditions so the form and stabilising matrix can be assessed.
Does this page cover a finished blue food colour blend?
No. The page covers phycocyanin powder, concentrate or purified material. A colour blend with other pigments, carriers or preservatives should be specified by its complete formulation.
Which quality details should be included in an enquiry?
Include source, physical form, colour strength or purity ratio and method, solubility, carrier system, residual biomass, microbiological and relevant contaminant limits.
What packing and documents can be requested?
Pack formats and documents depend on the form and purity quoted. Request any light-protective packing, specification, safety data, source declaration or certificate required by the finished process.
What affects phycocyanin pricing?
Purity ratio, colour strength, source, powder or liquid form, carrier system, quantity, packing and delivery point affect the offer. Pricing is issued on enquiry with a stated validity period.
