Popis: There is an important interest to research new protein sources. In this context, Microalgae, particularly Spirulina (Arthrospira platensis), seems to be a good alternative due to its wealthy nutritional composition. The aim of this study is to optimize Spirulina functional properties and to extract protein from whole biomass using (RSM). Ultrasound wad used as pre-treatment to optimize functional properties and to extract proteins from Spirulina powder by isoelectric precipitation. The effect of ultrasound and remaining parameters (pH, temperature, solid to liquid ratio and time) was evaluated by Box-Behnken design. The model was fitted by ANOVA analysis. ANOVA analysis showed a significant model (p
