`ABSTRACT
`(57)
`This invention discloses new krill oil compositions charac(cid:173)
`terized by having high amounts of phospholipids, astaxan(cid:173)
`thin esters and/or omega-3 contents. The krill oils are
`obtained from krill meal using supercritical fluid extraction
`in a two stage process. Stage 1 removes the neutral lipid by
`extracting with neat supercritical C02 or C02 plus approxi(cid:173)
`mately 5% of a co-solvent. Stage 2 extracts the actual krill
`oils by using supercritical co2 in combination with approxi(cid:173)
`mately 20% ethanol. The krill oil materials obtained are
`compared with commercially available krill oil and found to
`be more bioeffective in a number of areas such as anti(cid:173)
`inflammation, anti-oxidant effects, improving insulin resis(cid:173)
`tances and improving blood lipid profile.
