síbiotech HIPPOCOR - Fatty Acids from Sea Buckthorn seeds

HIPPOCOR is an omega-rich supplement derived from the seeds of sea buckthorn, cultivated in Latvia. Utilizing the environmentally considerate method of supercritical fluid extraction with carbon dioxide, HIPPOCOR preserves the ecological integrity of the source while ensuring a pure botanical lipid extract. This supplement emphasizes a balanced intake of Omega-3, Omega-6, and Omega-9 fatty acids, featuring a near-equal ratio of Omega-3 to Omega-6 which is regarded as healthy for cardiovascular function. Additionally, it contains oleic acid and beta-sitosterol, a plant sterol resembling cholesterol, promoting cardiovascular health by potentially lowering cholesterol absorption. Clinical trials initiated by the Latvian University Institute of Cardiology and Regenerative Medicine are exploring its impact on cardiovascular risk reduction, further informing health benefits attributed to consistent use. HIPPOCOR serves individuals six years and older, but is not advised for pregnant or lactating women. It is a non-GMO product, free from artificial colors, solvents, and pesticides, intended as a dietary supplement rather than a diet substitute.

síbiotech - Photobioreactor-based Microalgae Cultivation Technology for Omega-3 Extraction

síbiotech has embarked on an advanced research project focusing on the cultivation of microalgae in photobioreactors, aimed at large-scale extraction of Omega-3 fatty acids. This initiative involves the use of a 0.15 m3 laboratory-scale bioreactor, with plans to scale up to pilot and industrial-scale systems reaching 30 m3, capable of yielding up to 600 kg of dry biomass monthly by the end of 2024. The automated photobioreactor ensures precise control over the cultivation cycle, enhancing repeatability and uniformity of biomass. The innovative process aligns with biotechnological techniques used in synthesizing active pharmaceutical ingredients. By utilizing microalgae cultivation, síbiotech offers a sustainable alternative to extracting valuable Omega-3s, typically sourced from fish, avoiding environmental damage and ensuring purity free from harmful compounds. This sustainable extraction uses supercritical fluid technology with CO2, enhancing the quality and environmental accountability of Omega-3, specifically eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), which is vital due to its health benefits, including anti-inflammatory properties.
