Abstract

Abstract:

It has been long history for pigment used as colorant in foods, cosmetics and pharmaceutical fields. In this paper, the current situation of microalgae pigment, including physical, chemical, and biological properties as well as the production process optimization have been reviewed. The pigments discussed in this paper have been produced at large industrial scale or will be in a wide application in the future. Development and application of microalgae pigment are also predicted.

Key words: colorant, microalgae, nature pigment, bioactive
