What is the microalgae Nannochloropsis?

The microalgae Nannochloropsis is a small marine phytoplankton with a diameter of 2 to 5 micrometers. It is a whole food with a high oil content, high in 61 nutrients including the omega-3 fatty acid EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid), β-glucan, vitamin B12, and palmitoleic acid, and has an amino acid score of almost 100.

Features & Strengths

Unparalleled nutritional value and EPA content

It contains 61 nutrients, especially the omega-3 fatty acid EPA, which is 7 to 10 times higher than other algae. Even in powder form, the EPA content is as high as 3.5% or more, providing an effective nutritional foundation for improving the survival rate of juvenile fish and maintaining human health.

Phospholipid-type EPA with excellent absorption efficiency

Unlike fish oil, Nannochloropsis EPA is a phospholipid type, which is highly efficient in absorption in the intestine and highly available in the body. It does not have the odor characteristic of fish oil, making it a suitable material for food and supplement applications.

Sustainability and broad applicability

As a single-cell algae, it has high cultivation efficiency and can be deployed in a wide variety of applications, including aquaculture feed, livestock feed, agricultural fertilizer, health food, and cosmetics. As a new plant-derived nutritional resource, it is also expected to help address the food and nutrition crisis.

Case Studies

Utilization as aquaculture feed

  • Aquaculture Industry
  • Stockraising

Issue

  • Fisheries: High juvenile mortality, inconsistent fish quality, and feed costs are also putting pressure on management.
  • Livestock production: High feed prices and lack of nutritional balance have led to instability in livestock health, meat quality, and milk quality.

Solution / Effect

  • Fisheries: Introducing Nannochloropsis as an initial food source improved survival rate, reduced malformations, and provided nutritional supplementation.
  • Livestock: Adding Nannochloropsis to the diet provided EPA and vitamins, leading to improved immunity and stabilized quality.

Utilization as a food and supplement material

  • Health Food Manufacturer
  • Beauty & cosmetics manufacturer

Issue

Omega-3 fatty acids derived from fish oil have a "fishy" smell, risk of oxidation, and are highly dependent on marine resources, making them unsustainable.
In addition, vegetarians and consumers who prefer to avoid fish oil have limited access to EPA.

Solution / Effect

Nannochloropsis is plant-derived, rich in EPA, has no odor characteristic of fish oil, and is highly resistant to oxidation.
Utilized as an ingredient in supplements and health foods, it contributes to maintaining cardiovascular and brain health, improving immunity, and supporting beauty and health.
