Polar lipid type EPA algae oil derived from Nannochloropsis - high absorption
Natural Microalgae EPA Oil contains approximately 10%-30% phospholipids and glycolipids, and is a high-function omega-3 ingredient free of DHA.
Next-generation EPA and DHA-free functional omega-3 material with high absorbability achieved through polar lipid structure, allowing for differentiation.
This product is a polar lipid-type EPA oleoresin produced from the single-celled green algae Nannochloropsis through photosynthetic autotrophic culture. It contains EPA as a polar lipid, including phospholipids, glycolipids, and betaine lipids, and has different absorption characteristics compared to conventional triglyceride (TG-type) fish oil. Due to its polar lipid structure, it excels in transportability and bioavailability within the body, and it is attracting attention as a next-generation omega-3 raw material, particularly for its potential functionality in lipid metabolism and the circulatory system. Additionally, being designed solely for EPA without DHA allows for greater flexibility in formulation design, enabling product development tailored to specific target functions. It is an environmentally friendly raw material derived from photosynthesis and is also evaluated as a sustainable source of EPA.

Applications/Examples of results
The product is utilized as a high-functional ingredient characterized by polar lipid-type EPA in supplements, functional foods, and medical-related fields. Supplement Applications EPA standalone products → DHA-free differentiation Products for blood lipid management → Neutral fat (TG) management → LDL and total cholesterol support Brain and cognitive support → Utilization of lipid transport functions Functional Food Applications Drinks Soft capsules Combination with powdered materials Due to the properties of polar lipids, it can also be used as a delivery material for fat-soluble components. Medical and Research Applications Lipid metabolism research Liver function-related research Anti-inflammatory research Polar lipids are believed to be involved in the uptake mediated by lipid transport proteins (Mfsd2a) in the liver, contributing to the maintenance of lipid metabolism balance. Additionally, it is used as research material related to the regulation of blood lipids and mechanisms for suppressing fat accumulation. Pet and High-Value Applications Premium pet supplements Functional feed
