What is Spirulina platensis?

Spirulina platensis is a special species of cyanobacteria. These are some of the oldest organisms on earth. The Latin name Spirulina refers to a twisted, curled thread. Although Spirulina is a blue-green bacteria, it is commonly counted as one of the micro-algae and freshwater algae.

The blue-green colour of Spirulina comes from the plant dye that contributes to photosynthesis, therefore to energy production in plants. This means that spirulina algae, like green plants, can generate energy and oxygen in the presence of light.
