  • Oil comprising at least one polyunsaturated fatty acid having at least 20 carbon atoms (LC-PUFA)
    Patent number: 11666062
    Abstract: The present invention relates to an oil comprising at least one polyunsaturated fatty acid having at least 20 carbon atoms (LC-PUFA). It is found that LC-PUFA-containing oil are susceptible to gelling by formation of microscopic crystals during storage ultimately resulting in unfavorable quality and handling properties. This problem has been particularly observed with a microbial oil comprising at least about 25% by weight LC-PUFA and a moisture content of 0.2 to 5% by weight. Surprisingly, it has been found that a LC-PUFA-containing oil as described above is effectively stable and does not show gelling properties under conventional storage conditions, if the oil composition as such contains less than about 8% preferably less than about 5% by weight of free fatty acid in the residual moisture of the oil.

  • Method of isolating lipids from a lipids containing biomass
    Patent number: 11352651
    Abstract: The invention relates to the isolation of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) from a lipids containing biomass. The main characteristics of the method are that a suspension of cells containing PUFAs is obtained and the cells are optionally lysed. The suspension is concentrated and then incubated for at least an hour at a controlled temperature while adding a specific range of base equivalents to biomass and maintaining a moderate pH. The isolation of lipid may be performed in the absence of organic solvents and without the addition of salt.

  • METHOD OF OBTAINING A MICROBIAL OIL AND A METHOD OF REDUCING EMULSION BY MAINTAINING A LOW CONCENTRATION OF CARBOHYDRATE
    Publication number: 20210024966
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are processes for reducing emulsion during the process of obtaining a microbial oil comprising one or more polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) from one or more microbial cells by maintaining the level of carbohydrate at less than 15 g/Kg in the fermentation broth. Further disclosed herein is microbial oil comprising one or more PUFAs that is recovered from microbial cells by at least one process described herein.

  • METHOD OF REDUCING EMULSION BY BROTH WASHING
    Publication number: 20210017467
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are processes for reducing or eliminating emulsion during the process of obtaining a microbial oil comprising one or more polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) from one or more microbial cells by washing the fermentation broth with at least 1× amount of water. Further disclosed herein is microbial oil comprising one or more PUFAs that is recovered from microbial cells by at least one process described herein.
