Abstract

The present invention relates to a method to extract long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids from sources using emulsifiers dispersed in oil as carrier and to the oils obtainable from such a method. It also relates to the use of emulsifier in oil for improving the extraction of long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids in the form of phospholipids and, in a further aspect, to an oil composition comprising long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids in an amount up to 4% and phospholipids in an amount up to 15% and at least one emulsifier.
