carotenoids, omega-3 fatty acids, PEA (phenylethylamine)and phycocyanin.
Many
scientific studies performed by well-known universities and research centers
support and validate the numerous reported benefits of Klamath Lake blue-green
algae. Used alone or blended with other nutraceuticals and natural food products,
Aphanizomenon flos-aquae will promote greater overall health.
Our harvesters’
innovative methods in the collection and processing of wild microalgae have
revolutionized the Klamath Lake harvesting business. Our on-site Refractance
Window™ Drying Technology is a proprietary drying process that uses
heat transfer technology and specific properties of water to gently remove
moisture from Aphanizomenon flos-aquae while maintaining the maximum nutrient
integrity of this natural algae.
This
technology is an innovative process unique to the Klamath Lake industry -
no other harvesting company utilizes this method of drying. Studies performed
at Washington State University’s Department of Biological Systems Engineering
and Department of Food Science and Human Nutrition established the superiority
of Refractance Window™ Drying Technology over all other methods of drying,
including freeze-drying. To learn more about Refractance Window™ Drying
Technology, please pay a visit to MCD Technologies an industry leader in food
processing equipment technology.
Our harvesters
adhere to a stringent quality control program to ensure our products are only
harvested under optimal conditions. Specific criteria are met to certify the
quality of the end product. Our procedures utilize established organic methods
