Abstract

The regular intake of marine omega 3's DHA and EPA has been scientifically established as providing a wide range of health benefits. This paper reviews recent developments in the commercial production of DHA and EPA rich oils from micro-algae. The selection of suitable micro-algae species is discussed. The complexities of producing algal oil rich in marine omega 3's is examined in terms of both upstream and downstream production. © 2013 R.J. Winwood, published by EDP Sciences.
