Egg Yolk Phospholipids
[EYPL]
w3-PL-85
|
w3-PL-85 is a 85 %
phospholipid-enriched fraction (Novel Food status 258/97/EC) from liquid
egg yolk. It contains ± 7.0 % free fatty acid and ± 7.0 %
cholesterol.
EYPL is the phospholipid fraction of egg yolk. It is obtained
through a special aqueous process, so called Cosolute Induced Phase
Separation (CIPS) and is exempt of all alcohol residues. EYPL is a
good source of Long Chain Polyinsaturated Fatty Acids (LC-PUFAs),
especially Arachidonic Acid (ARA) and Docosahexaenoic Acid (DHA).
LC-PUFAs can be synthesised by the human body but there seems to be
critical timing in Life (pregnant women, newborn, stressful active
people, ageing people, hospital patients, etc) where a balanced source
of these animal-derived ingredients is beneficial. Animal-derived PLs
and, more specifically, egg yolk phospholipids (EYPLs), seem to be the
most appropriate food vector for 'conditionally-essential' vitamins. |
Egg Oil
(Egg Neutral Lipids)
w6 & w3-EYNL
|
Egg oils (w6 & w3-EYNL) are natural oils extracted from standard and Columbus Eggs with a modern solvent-free
technology. They are high added value oils, containing +/- 4% cholesterol, for use in dietary supplements, infant foods, cosmetics and pharmaceuticals. |
