Ngokutsho kophando lwakutshanje olupapashwe kwiphephancwadi elithi “Exploring Food”, iqela lamazwe ngamazwe elivela e-Israel, e-Iceland, eDenmark nase-Austria lisebenzise ubuchwepheshe bebhayoloji obuphucukileyo ukuvelisa i-spirulina equlethe i-vitamin B12 esebenzayo, elingana nomxholo wenyama yenkomo. Le yingxelo yokuqala yokuba i-spirulina ine-vitamin B12 esebenzayo.
Kulindeleke ukuba uphando olutsha lujongane nenye yezona zinto zixhaphakileyo zokunqongophala kwezakhamzimba. Abantu abangaphezu kwebhiliyoni eli-1 kwihlabathi liphela banengxaki yokunqongophala kwe-B12, kwaye ukuthembela kwinyama kunye neemveliso zobisi ukuze bafumane i-B12 eyaneleyo (ii-micrograms ezingama-2.4 ngosuku) kuzisa umngeni omkhulu kwindalo esingqongileyo.
Izazinzulu zicebise ukusebenzisa i-spirulina endaweni yenyama kunye neemveliso zobisi, nto leyo ehlala ixesha elide. Nangona kunjalo, i-spirulina yendabuko inendlela abantu abangenakusebenzisa ngayo ngokwebhayoloji, nto leyo ethintela ukwenzeka kwayo endaweni yayo.
Eli qela liphuhlise inkqubo ye-biotechnology esebenzisa ulawulo lwe-photon (iimeko zokukhanya eziphuculweyo) ukuphucula imveliso ye-vitamin B12 esebenzayo kwi-spirulina, ngelixa ivelisa nezinye izinto ezisebenzayo ezine-antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, kunye nemisebenzi yokuphucula amasosha omzimba. Le ndlela intsha inokuvelisa i-biomass etyebileyo kwizakhamzimba ngelixa ifezekisa ukungathathi cala kwekhabhoni. Umxholo we-vitamin B12 esebenzayo kwi-culture ecocekileyo yi-1.64 micrograms/100 grams, ngelixa kwinyama yenkomo yi-0.7-1.5 micrograms/100 grams.
Iziphumo zibonisa ukuba ukulawula i-photosynthesis ye-spirulina ngokukhanya kunokuvelisa inqanaba elifunekayo le-vitamin B12 esebenzayo emzimbeni womntu, okubonelela ngenye indlela ezinzileyo yokutya okuphuma kwizilwanyana zemveli.
