Debbie, I will try to find out about testing for hexane. This is a very
specific reason health food stores carry only expeller, cold pressed
oils. The quantity of residual will matter as to testing. What
percentage DHA & AA are of the entire batch, I would guess. But it is
sure nothing to brag
about. I wonder if in Europe it is extracted the very same way or by
some other safer, more expensive manner. Some countries in
Europe/Scandinavia are much more stringent regarding certain chemicals
in the food supply.

Judy, can an end product, like formula, be tested for hexane residual?
