Origin: A borrowing from Latin. Etymon: Latin Spirulina.

Etymology: < scientific Latin Spirulina, genus name (P. J. F. Turpin 1827, in Dict. des sciences naturelles 50 309) < Spirula (see Spirula n.) + -ina -ina suffix.

Any of several filamentous cyanobacteria (blue-green algae) of (or formerly of) the genus Spirulina, which grow in dense tangled masses in warm alkaline lakes in Africa and Central and South America; (in later use) esp. (as a mass noun) such algae dried and prepared in various ways as a food, food additive, or dietary supplement. Also (in form Spirulina): the genus itself.The species used for commercial production of spirulina are now considered to be members of a separate genus, Arthrospira, with A. platensis and A. maxima the most commonly cultivated.

1846 Trans. Bot. Soc. 2 185 Spirulina has its filaments interwoven into a thin stratum of no determinate form, and by the naked eye cannot be distinguished from Oscillatoria.

1860 A. Mechi Sewerage Towns 78 It [sc. sewage] swarms with animal life, as beaded Spirulina, Vibriones and Monads; and soon after exposure to air the higher forms of infusoria appear.

1904 G. S. West Treat. Brit. Freshwater Algae 315 In the genus Spirulina, in which the filament is also twisted into a close spiral, the movement consists of a rotation around the axis of the spiral, with a slight propulsion through the water.

1974 A. Jones World Protein Resources xxiii. 220 One advantage of the spirulina being pulled out of Mexican lakes is its large size, which allows simple filtration and washing.

1987 C. Hunter Vitamin Fact Finder (rev. ed.) iii. 25 The last few years have also seen the introduction of a food supplement called spirulina.., which is the richest natural source of B₁₂.

2012 Irish Daily Mail (Nexis) 5 Apr. (Features section) 38 A bluey-green algae found in lakes, spirulina is high in protein, calcium, vitamins, minerals, amino acids and enzymes.
