Valensa International (Eustis, FL) and Parry Nutraceuticals (Chennai, India) have introduced a new, coated spirulina (Arthrospira platensis) called Pur-Blue. The ingredient features an all-natural phycocyanin-extract coating that masks the algae’s flavor, making the ingredient suited to a wider range of products.
