Arthrospira platensis

Cyanobacteria can be fairly cultured under laboratory conditions, ranging from small batch cultures to high-volume bioreactors (Marxen et al, 2005 Richmond et al, 1993), but they can also be grown outdoors, in tubular bioreactors or large ponds. For example, the nontoxic species Arthrospira platensis (also known as Spirulina) has been cultured in... [Pg.371]

Microalgae have been used in various foods because of their ubiquitous availability in oceans and also due to their tremendous medicinal values. Earlier, as many as 206 strains of 152 marine microalgal species with UVA- and UVB-absorbing compounds were identified (Jeffrey et ah, 1999). Arthrospira platensis or Spirulina platensis (commonly called as nutraceutical spirulina) is a blue-green microalgae with a long history as a food source in East Africa and precolonial Mexico (Wikipedia).

A wide screening to evaluate the antiviral activity of polysaccharide compormds isolated from the cyanobacterium Arthrospira platensis on different viruses was performed by Rechter et al. [83]. These authors reported the results obtained by using specific assays for the quantification of in-vitro viral replication. The polysaccharide fractions, containing spirulan-like molecules, showed a marked inhibition of human cytomegalovirus, herpes simplex virus type 1, human herpesvirus type 6 and human immunodeficiency virus type 1. On the contrary, weak or no inhibition was detected for Epstein-Barr virus and influenza A virus [83]. The in-vitro antiviral activity of polysaccharide calcium spirulan produced by Arthrospira platensis (formerly Spirulina platensis) was previously described [84-86]. [Pg.15]
