[1] Like a clockwork, it is spiral blue-green, so it is also called blue-green algae.

It is made of spirulina powder by dehydration, spray drying and other processes through modern technology.

Under the microscope, they are loose or tightly curved in a regular spiral shape, named after the clockwork. Cyanobacteria cells have no pigment bodies, and the pigments are distributed in the pigment area outside the protoplasts, blue-green. The surface of the algae does not have a colloidal sheath, which is not easy to be attached by microorganisms. There are bubbles in the cells and the floatability is good. The top of the cell or algae filament is often not sharp, the transverse wall is often not obvious, the top cell is round, and the outer wall is not thickened.
