Abstract: This invention discloses new krill oil compositions characterized by having high amounts of phospholipids, astaxanthin esters and/or omega-3 contents. The krill oils are obtained from krill meal using supercritical fluid extraction in a two stage process. Stage 1 removes the neutral lipid by extracting with neat supercritical CO2 or CO2 plus approximately 5% of a co-solvent. Stage 2 extracts the actual krill oils by using supercritical CO2 in combination with approximately 20% ethanol. The krill oil materials obtained are compared with commercially available krill oil and found to be more bioeffective in a number of areas such as anti-inflammation, anti-oxidant effects, improving insulin resistances and improving blood lipid profile.

Abstract: The present invention provides improved processes for extracting and preparing lipids from biological sources for use in pharmaceuticals, nutraceuticals and functional foods.

Abstract: Novel marine lipid compositions comprising triglycerides and omega-3 rich phospholipids are described. The compositions are characterized by providing highly bioavailable omega-3, increased tissue incorporation of omega-3 and reduced concentration of pro-inflammatory cytokines.

Abstract: The present invention relates to enhanced omega-3 formulations, and in particular to formulations comprising a phospholipid fraction and a triglyceride fraction in combinations with agents that provide a formulation with improved viscosity and dispersion characteristics.

Abstract: The present invention provides methods for improving flesh quality in farmed fish, and in particular decreasing gaping in fillets from farmed fish as well as increasing flesh and fillet firmness.

Abstract: The present invention provides marine lysophosphatidylcholine compositions for use in pharmaceuticals, nutraceuticals and functional foods, as well as methods for making marine lysophosphatidylcholine compositions.

Abstract: The invention provides improved processes for extracting and preparing polar lipids (in particular, desirable phospholipids) from krill and other biological sources. The inventors have discovered processes through which it is possible to extract phospholipids to give high phospholipid content and a reduction of undesired components.

Abstract: Oral capsules have been dismissed as a dosage form for delivery high dosages of krill phospholipids, but by purifying these to high levels it is indeed possible to use this dosage form to deliver, for example, 700 mg or more phospholipids per capsule.

Abstract: A preparation comprising krill oil and phospholipids. Methods of treatment comprising administering the same.

Abstract: The present invention provides improved processes for extracting and preparing lipids from biological sources for use in pharmaceuticals, nutraceuticals and functional foods.

Abstract: Current krill oil extracts are liquid at room temperature and include only about 45-55% phospholipids. As the purity of phospholipids increases, the extracts become more viscous, making them difficult to handle and process. The invention mixes these pure materials with viscosity-reducing agents to make them amenable to processes such as encapsulation. Thus the invention retains the useful liquid characteristics of known krill extracts while providing much higher concentrations of phospholipids.
