Core Advantages for Formulators
High-Potency Astaxanthin: Delivers an enhanced antioxidant profile at 1,000 ppm, reducing the need for supplemental antioxidant blending in finished softgels.
Integrated Phospholipid Matrix: Astaxanthin is naturally bound to marine phospholipids and omega-3 fatty acids, supporting structural stability and targeted lipid delivery.
Controlled Oxidation Metrics: Low initial Peroxide and p-Anisidine values protect unsaturated fatty acids against degradation during processing and shelf life.
Target Applications
This ingredient is optimized for various commercial delivery formats and product lines:
Dietary Supplements
High-speed softgel encapsulation and liquid-fill hard capsule formulas.
Cardiovascular & Joint Health

FAQ
Q: What is the exact percentage equivalent of 1,000 ppm astaxanthin?
A: 1,000 ppm corresponds to 1,000 mg/kg, which equals 0.10% of the oil matrix.
Q: Is the astaxanthin naturally occurring?
A: Yes, the astaxanthin is naturally present in Antarctic krill (Euphausia superba) and retained through our gentle extraction process.
Q: What documentation is provided with each shipment?
A: Every commercial batch includes a comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA), SDS, heavy metal reports, and microbiological test results.
Q: What is the standard bulk packaging format?
A: The oil is supplied in food-grade, nitrogen-flushed drums (25 kg, 50 kg, or 190 kg formats) to maintain oxidation stability.
