Krill oil softgels are encapsulated lipid extracts from Antarctic krill (Euphausia superba). The core process involves cold extraction and molecular distillation to preserve phospholipid-bound EPA and DHA. Unlike fish oil, the phospholipid structure enhances bioavailability. Specific molecular formulas vary by fatty acid composition; CAS numbers correspond to individual triglycerides (e.g., EPA: 107-29-9) rather than a single bulk compound.
Contraindicated for individuals with shellfish allergies. Maintain storage below 25°C in nitrogen-flushed, opaque containers to prevent oxidation. Do not exceed recommended dosages without medical supervision due to potential anticoagulant effects.
