Catalog Number | BTP-P97006 | Algae play a crucial role in ecosystems and are a popular subject of biotechnology research. Algal proteins are recognized as a high-quality protein source. However, due to the unique cell structure of algae, especially their rigid cell walls, extracting proteins from these small organisms poses significant challenges. The current algal protein separation process is time-consuming and economically unfeasible, while proteins from other plant or animal sources are generally easier to extract. The algal cell wall not only obstructs protein release but may also interact with the extracted proteins, affecting their functionality and purity. |

Challenges and Demand for Algal Protein Extraction
1) Cell Wall Barrier: Many algae, especially microalgae, have hard cell walls. Some have silica or calcium carbonate cell walls, making cell disruption and protein release more challenging. Chemical or mechanical methods may affect protein activity or purity.
2) Extraction Efficiency: Compared to traditional plant or animal protein sources, protein extraction from algae is less efficient, requiring more raw materials and processing steps to obtain the same amount of protein.
3) Purification Issues: Besides proteins, algae contain various bioactive substances such as lipids, polysaccharides, pigments, and vitamins that may interfere with protein extraction and purification. Algae may also accumulate environmental pollutants like heavy metals, leading to undesirable impurities in the extracted proteins.
4) Protein Molecular Availability: The successful extraction of algal proteins is greatly affected by the availability of protein molecules. High viscosity and anionic cell wall polysaccharides can severely hinder the availability of protein molecules, such as alginate in brown algae and carrageenan in red algae.
5) Rich in Impurities: Seaweeds are rich in various polysaccharides, including cellulose, galactans, xylans, fucoidans, laminarins, alginates, carrageenans, etc., which reduce the utilization rate and extraction efficiency of algal proteins.
6) Protein Degradation: During extraction, proteases released from cytoplasmic vesicles may degrade target proteins, compromising the integrity of algal proteins.
7) Salt and Ion Interference: Algae grow in various aquatic environments and may contain high concentrations of salts and other ions, which can interfere with proteins during extraction.
8) Rich Pigments: Pigments such as chlorophyll, carotenoids, phycobiliproteins, and others in algae can interact with extracted proteins, affecting their purity and activity.
With deeper exploration of the functions of algal proteins and their interactions with the environment, BTP (Biotech) has launched the ProExcell TM Algal Protein Extraction Kit, offering a complete solution for efficient and rapid algal protein extraction for researchers.
