Australia’s involvement in CCAMLR is long dated, with CCAMLR’ head office located in Tasmania. Australia’s contribution to Antarctic climate science is well known and highly respected. This 2008 report was edited by D. Michael Stoddart from the Australian Antarctic Division. It shows that Australia has played a significant role in many aspects of high-latitude climate …

The “solvent-free krill oil” has become the target for all krill oil manufacturers since Tharos’ first IP in 2009. Krill oils, except Tharos’, are manufactured using solvents in any stage of their process. And the market has slowly come up rejecting that fact. This is Sara Aziz 2013 thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate …
Although this research was published March 2014 in Advances in Polar Science, it is a very actual matter that impacts krill meal and krill oil sales, sustained by Tharos’ market research. Fluorine (F) toxicity is a matter of real concern. This research was made using rats with different dietary regimens: A control group, a krill …

This 1966 thesis analyzed (Zn)zinc-65 uptake and retention from seawater by Euphausia pacifica, depending on temperature, size of animal and concentration of Zn in the water. Read full report here.
Goals of work Advanced tumor disease very often evokes excessive loss of body weight. Among others, fish oil or marine fatty acid ethyl esters were investigated for treatment of cancer cachexia with controversial results. In this study, a new formulation of marine fatty acids was investigated, marine phospholipids, with more than 50% of phospholipid-bound fatty …

Australia has granted Tharos a new patent for its unique solvent-free krill extraction process. The Australian Commissioner of Patents has granted the patent dated 2 May 2019, certifying that the Tharos concept has been registered in the Register of Patents. Tharos krill oil is the only krill oil that can be manufactured at-sea as it does …
Good day Friends and Colleagues. The Antarctic Marine Living Resources program of the NOAA Southwest Fisheries Science Center’s Antarctic Ecosystem Research Division has been conducing research surveys of Antarctic krill (Euphausa superba) around the Antarctic peninsula since the late 1980s. The surveys expanded during this period from a grid of net tows around Elephant Island …
Hello colleges and friends. A good reminder for all of us involved in the South Antarctic krill fishery, how important is krill on the fragile Antarctic Food WEB. Please see this very short version Antarctic Food Web_vF
Yes !! Up to 7 times when krill’s “bioluminescence” effect is put in good practice. Norwegian NITG has a patented process that, when applied to its Northern krill fishing operation, no (long) trawling nets were required. If krill is attracted using special lights, there is no need of long trawling nets, hence reducing the size …

Having onboard a factory trawler at-sea analytics, it is the only way to assure that the best quality comes directly from the source. This is how Tharos manage its krill operations. Please visit this video to see how one of this labs looks like, and what you need to ask your krill supplier, manufacturing your …
