Aphanizomenon flos-aquae

Aphanizomenon flos-aquae (AFA) is a nutrient-dense blue-green algae (cyanobacteria), supplied by Nustras as a whole-algae powder and extract for supplement and superfood formulations. It is valued as a whole-food source of protein, chlorophyll, phycocyanin, vitamins, minerals and other naturally occurring compounds.

AFA is formulated into greens and superfood blends, whole-food supplement products, energy and wellbeing formulations, and functional foods and beverages, in capsules, tablets and powders.

The material is supplied as a dark blue-green whole-algae powder, or as an extract to a defined ratio, with phycocyanin and other markers standardised to order. Identity, moisture, heavy-metal, microcystin and microbial limits are supplied to specification and confirmed on each lot's certificate of analysis, reflecting the quality controls appropriate to algae ingredients.

Nustras supplies AFA in bulk commercial quantities, in food-grade bags or fibre drums, to manufacturers and formulators internationally, with a certificate of analysis, specification sheet and country-of-origin documentation on every lot. AFA is an accepted food and dietary ingredient in major markets; buyers confirm the grade, purity controls and claim for their product.
