英文摘要Spirulina (Arthrospira/Limnospira) is one of the most commercially important microalgae, a nutrient-dense cyanobacterium widely recognized for its high protein, vitamin, and antioxidant content. Recent advances in cultivation, metabolic analysis, and food-grade processing have renewed interest in Spirulina as a vitamin-rich edible platform for natural human supplementation. Unlike synthetic vitamins or plant extracts, Spirulina provides a balanced spectrum of bioavailable vitamins, including provitamin A (beta-carotene), B-complex (particularly B12 analogues), vitamin E (alpha-tocopherol), and vitamin K1, within an edible and digestible food matrix. However, vitamin content in Spirulina is highly variable and strongly influenced by strain genetics, cultivation conditions (light, nutrients, temperature, salinity), and harvest stage, creating challenges for product consistency and efficacy. This review synthesizes the current knowledge on Spirulina vitamin composition, influencing factors, and strategies to enhance vitamin levels in Spirulina biomass through optimized light regimes, nitrogen sources, and stress modulation (e.g., salinity, oxidative stress). Particular attention is given to recent findings on cultivationmetabolism linkages, biorefinery-based harvesting, and post-harvest stabilization of vitamins for long-term product quality. Comparative analysis of Spirulina with other natural and fortified food sources demonstrates its advantage as a safe, whole-food-based vitamin supplement, compatible with clean-label and vegan markets. This paper also discusses human dietary requirements, global market dynamics for natural vitamin supplements, and emerging biotechnological tools for strain improvement while noting regulatory and consumer considerations surrounding genetically modified cyanobacteria. Overall, Spirulina offers a sustainable, edible, and multifunctional approach to meeting human vitamin needs within a food-based nutrition framework rather than a synthetic production model.
