Provided is a method for producing a composition containing plasmalogen derived from a plasmalogen-containing animal tissue, the method being without significantly decreasing an amount of plasmalogen derived the plasmalogen-containing animal tissue. A method for producing a composition containing plasmalogen derived from an animal tissue, the method comprising: (A) concentrating an alcohol extract of a plasmalogen-containing animal tissue, and (B) after diluting a concentrated product obtained by (A), allowing to stand under refrigeration.

The present invention relates to the use of turbine mixing during enzymatic hydrolysis of aquatic protein from species such as fish, aquatic mammals, crustaceans and/or mollusks, to obtain high quality aquatic protein hydrolysates, having very low oxidation, improved organoleptic profile and improved biological activity of interest, for human consumption and cosmetics. The turbine mixing can inhibit oxidation during hydrolysis, contribute to an increase in the bio-activity and decrease the bitter taste of the final product. The process can vary in starting material, pre-treatment, type and amount of enzyme, hydrolysis conditions, time, degree of hydrolysis and post-treatment.

Fluorine being present in the exoskeleton of crustaceans, and especially krill represents a problem for using hill as a source for food, feed, food additives and/or feed additives. There has been developed a process for removing such fluorine from krill material by subjecting the krill to disintegration and to an enzymatic hydrolysis process prior to or simultaneously with a removal of the exoskeleton particles producing a fluorine-reduced product. Inherent in the disclosed process is the ability to process krill material with a high polar lipid content for producing superior quality, low fluorine, products suitable for the food and feed as well as the pharmaceutical, neutraceutical and cosmetic industry.

A method of producing a protein phospholipid complex from a crustacean catch including protein is claimed where hydrolysis occurs without substantially denaturing the protein from the crustacean catch. A method of producing a stable protein phospholipid emulsion from a crustacean catch is also claimed. A method of producing crustacean oil is claimed where the oil is separated from the hydrolyzed crustacean catch. Other methods of producing a protein phospholipid complex are claimed which relate to not removing the shell, removing the shell, and removing then adding back the shell to form the protein phospholipid complex.

Systems and methods for producing protein powder are disclosed. In various embodiments, protein powder is prepared by a process comprising sanitizing raw material from aquatic animals mixture with ozone, combining the raw material with a solvent to create a mixture, baking the combined mixture for a first time period, separating, with a filter, liquid from the combined mixture that was baked for the first time period, baking the combined mixture without the separated liquid for a second time period, separating, with a filter, liquid from the combined mixture that was baked for the second time period, curing the combined mixture, and processing the cured mixture to produce protein powder.
