`
`Dear Dr. Sampalis:
`
`This is to inform you that your notification, dated February 17, 2002 was originally filed with
`the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) on February 28, 2002. Your original notification
`contained three separate notifications concerning three new dietary ingredients that were
`identified as: Neptune Krill Oil" (Krill oil), Neptune Aquatvinen‘ (Krill-based protein
`concentrate powder of the dry residue from the extraction of oil), and Neptune Ly0-Kn'll""
`(freeze-dried Krill). You indicated that the primary source oi all three ingredients is Krill, a
`shrimp-like crustacean identified as Antarctic Krill (species known as Euphausia superba). In
`~ a telephone conversation with you on April 8, 2002, we informed you that your notification
`was incomplete in that it did not supply all of the information as required in Title 21 of the
`Code of Federal Regulations (21 CPR) _90.6.
`
`Your amended notification, dated April 26, 2002, containing the additional information was
`received by FDA on May 15, 2002, which was the revised filing date for the three ingredients
`cited above. We note that in the amended notification you included a new notification for an
`ingredient described as Neptune Krill Enzyme'"‘. Subsequently, in telephone conversations
`with you on June 17 and July 15, 2002, we requested additional information on this ingredient
`and indicated that the new filing date for Neptune Krill Enzyme?“ would be the date that we
`receive this information. The new filing date for the notification on Neptune Krill Enzyme”
`was July 19, 2002. Further, on July 18, 2002 you notified us ‘via electronic mail that you
`changed the tradename fi-om Neptune Krill Enzyme“ to Neptune Krill Euphausial“. Hence,
`we will be using the new tradename for the rest of this letter. FDA considered the notification
`for Neptune Krill Euphausiam separately fi'om the other threc notifications. Nonetheless, this
`letter addresses the four notifications for the following ingredients: Neptune Krill Oil” (Krill
`oil), Neptune Aquateine““ (Krill-based protein concentrate powder of the dry residue from the
`extraction of oil), Neptune Ly0-Krilll“ (freeze-dried Krill), and Neptune Krill Euphausial“)
`(a blend of Neptune Krill Aquateinem and Neptune Lyo-Krill”).
`
`In your amended notification, you indicated that the serving levels and daily servings are:
`Neptune Krill Oil'"" (1 gram of oil per geleap with a reeornmended daily serving of 1 to 3
`gelcaps per day); Neptune Aquateine"'” (300 mg per sac with a recommended daily serving
`of l to 3 sacs per day), Neptune LyO-Krill“ (300 mg per capsule with a recommended daily

`
`Dr. Sampalis-Neptune Page 2
`
`serving of l to 3 capsules per day) and Neptune Krill Euphausirfl“ (300 mg per capsule with a
`recommended daily serving of 1 to 3 capsules. You also stated that there was no limitation in
`the duration of use for any of the four ingredients and that the only subpopulations excluded
`from using these ingredients are persons with seafood allergies and those taking
`anticoagulants.
`
`In accordance with 21 C.F.R 190.6 (c), FDA must acknowledge its receipt of a notification for
`a new dietary ingredient. For 75 days alter the filing dates, you must not introduce or deliver
`for introduction into interstate commerce any dietary supplement that contains Neptune Krill
`Oil“ (Krill oil), Neptune Aquateine'“‘ (Krill-based protein concentrate powder ofthe dry
`residue from the extraction of oil), Neptune Ly0-Krill“ (freeze-dried Krill) or Neptune Krill
`Euphausiam (a blend ofNeptune Krill Aquateine“‘ and Neptune Lyo-Krill“).
`
`Please note that acceptance ofthis notification for filing is a procedural matter and, thus, does
`not constitute a finding by FDA that the new dietary ingredient or supplement that contains
`the new dietary ingredient is safe or is not adulterated under 21 USC. 342. Irnportantly, new
`dietary ingredients for use in dietary supplements that FDA has reviewed through the
`premarket notification process are not "approved" or “authorised” by the agency.
`
`Although we are not finding at this time that the basis on which you concluded that a dietary
`supplement containing either Neptune Krill Oil“, Neptune Aquateine", Neptune Ly0-
`Krill“ and Neptune Krill Euphausial" will reasonably be expected to be safe is inadequate,
`' FDA is not precluded from taking action in the firture against 4 dietary supplement containing
`any ofthese ingredients if it is found to be adulterated or misbtanded. It is the manufacturer's
`or distributor-’s responsibility to ensure that any dietary ingredient or a dietary supplement
`marketed in the United States is safe and complies with all applicable requirements of the
`Federal Food, Dmg and Cosmetic Act and implementing regulations in Title 21 of the Code
`ofFederal Regulations as well as any other applicable Federal laws and regulations.
`
`Your notifications for Neptune Krill Oil“ (Krill oil), Neptune Aquateinem (Krill-based
`protein concentrate powder ofthe dry residue fi'om the extraction of oil),
`Neptune Ly0-Krill“ (freeze-dried Krill) and Neptune Krill Euphausiam (a blend ofNeptune
`Krill Aquateine“ and Neptune Lyo-Krilll”) will be kept confidential for 90 days from the
`date of their receipt. Therefore, your notifications for Neptune Krill Oil“, Neptune
`Aquateine“, and Neptune LyO-Krill?“ and your notification for Neptune Krill Euphausia“‘
`will be placed on public display at FDA's Dockets Management Branch in docket number
`955-0316 afier August 13, 2002 and October 16, 2002, respectively. However, any trade
`secret or otherwise confid_ential commercial information in the notifications will not be ._
`disclosed to the public.
`
`Prior to October 16, 2002, you may wish to identify in writing specifically what information
`you believe is proprietary in the notification for Neptune Krill §3uphausia“‘ for FDA's
`consideration. Nevertheless, our Centers Freedom of Information Officer has the authority to
`make the final decision about what information in the notifications should be redacted before
`it is posted at Dockets.

`a specific species that was to be marketed. Dr. Sampalis stated that there was, and
`that she would provide that information to us.
`0 The krill species used is: Antarctic Krill Eup/zasia superba fished in the
`Antarctic ocean near the South Georgia and Sandwich Islands
`
`> The notification was unclear as to what form of the Krill was to be orally ingested,
`there were 3 forms:
`the oil extract, the dry fraction, and the freeze—dried form. Dr.
`Sampalis stated that all three forms were to be marketed for oral ingestion. I asked
`her to indicate this in her response.
`0 All three forms are meant for oral ingestion:
`I Neptune Krill Oilm : gel caps (1 gram of oil per gel cap)
`I Aquateinem (dry fraction): powder
`I LyO-Krill (freeze dried): capsules (300mg per capsule)
`
`> The notification was unclear as to the specific levels or concentration of Krill
`per serving dose for each form (i.e., the oil extract, the dry fraction, and the
`freeze-dried Krill) and the total daily serving intake and I asked Dr. Sampalis
`to provide information for all three forms. I also requested if there was any
`limitation or duration of use and frequency of serving doses (e.g., how many
`times a day it is taken), if so, to please indicate, if not to also state this.

`'
`Seafood allergy
`- Anticoagulant use
`
`> I also asked Dr. Sampalis to submit the requested complete information
`in triplicate.
`0 Three copies enclosed
`
`> Also please make sure that the complete processing information for all three
`forms, if not in original submission notification, are included in the submission,
