Abstract
The disclosure provides a method of obtaining an isolated phospholipid enriched krill composition. The method includes a) contacting a crude krill composition with an alcohol in an amount sufficient to provide a phospholipid enriched layer and a non-phospholipid enriched layer; b) forming a phospholipid enriched layer and a non-phospholipid enriched layer, wherein the phospholipid enriched layer is above the non-phospholipid enriched layer; c) isolating the phospholipid enriched layer and the non-phospholipid enriched layer; and d) removing the alcohol from the phospholipid enriched layer to provide an isolated phospholipid enriched krill composition.
