Degradation of pigments in <i>Limnospira platensis</i> extracts
This substantial enhancement in decoloration efficiency, surpassing the intrinsic metabolic activity, underscores the potential of extrinsic enzymatic approaches. These findings hold promise for addressing the challenge of spirulina extract colouration in products, potentially enabling improved market acceptance and viability. © 2026 The Author(s).
