Patents by Inventor Hâvard Thøgersen

Hâvard Thøgersen has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 11020438
    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.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: September 25, 2019
    Date of Patent: June 1, 2021
    Assignee: Aker BioMarine Antarctic AS
    Inventors: Finn Myhren, Nils Hoem, Håvard Thøgersen
  • Patent number: 10960016
    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.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 10806742
    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.
