Fermentation-derived ARA oil (arachidonic acid fat, TG type, for food use)
ARA Oil TG Type 38%/40%/50% specifications Mortierella alpina fermented lipid raw material for infant use.
Fermented ARA oil suitable for infant formula with low odor, high stability, and stable supply of functional omega-6 lipids.
This product is a high arachidonic acid (ARA) oil made from Mortierella alpina (highland fungus) using a fully automated fermentation process. Its lipid structure is triacylglycerol (TG type), which has excellent absorption in the body and is suitable for various nutritional formulations, including infant applications. ARA is a type of omega-6 polyunsaturated fatty acid and is an important lipid component that is particularly abundant in the brain and nervous tissue. During infancy, the body's ability to synthesize it is limited, making external supplementation important. This product features a low odor design and high oxidative stability, making it suitable for incorporation into dairy products and nutritional foods. Additionally, due to its fermentation origin, it has minimal variability in raw material quality, allowing for long-term and stable supply.
