Crude Fish Oil

Crude Fish oil has an important application in the animal feed industry (mainly aquaculture and poultry), where it is known to enhance growth, feed conversion rate (FCR) and increased resistance to diseases. Fish oil is one of the natural remedies for a number of health problems. It contains two of the most important omega 3 fatty acids that can be absorbed easily, EPA & DHA. These two fatty acids derived from fish oil are considered to be the protective elements for the body as they help in solving heart related problems, better brain functions and several other health benefitting factors. Sardine fish oil contains around 20 % of EPA & DHA. Crude fish oil has undesirable substances present in varying amounts. These are removed by refining or processing to increase its usefulness as a starting material for the manufacture of industrial products. Chemically modified fish oils can be used in making industrial products such as protective coatings, leather chemicals, printing inks, lubricants and greases etc.
