Bacillus Licheniformis Feed Additive

ART-AN-049 is a feed-grade Bacillus licheniformis powder selected for animal nutrition applications where spore stability, uniform blending, and predictable viable count are procurement priorities. Typical specification targets may include 1.0×10¹⁰ CFU/g viable spores, moisture not more than 10%, light tan to brown free-flowing powder, and a carrier suitable for dry feed manufacture. Final specification is confirmed by lot and contract grade.

The organism is supplied in spore form, allowing improved tolerance to normal feed processing, storage, and distribution compared with vegetative cultures. It is commonly evaluated in premix systems alongside yeast derivatives, mineral carriers, acidifiers, and standard ration ingredients. Buyers sourcing microbial feed ingredients can review related options under animal nutrition yeast and feed ingredients or request a grade match for existing formulations.

• Livestock compound feed: inclusion in mash, crumble, and pelleted feed where a spore-forming microbial ingredient is required for formula consistency.
• Poultry nutrition: use in broiler, layer, and breeder feed premixes, subject to local feed additive regulations and nutritionist approval.
• Swine programs: suitable for nursery, grower, finisher, and sow ration development where dry microbial inputs are part of the formulation matrix.
• Ruminant feed: compatible with mineral premixes, total mixed ration supplements, and concentrate blends when mixing uniformity is validated.
• Aquaculture feed: considered for shrimp and fish feed applications where pelleting or extrusion conditions are reviewed against target viable count.
• Premix and toll manufacturing: supplied in 25 kg sacks for industrial blending, repacking, and custom nutrient premix production. For volume planning, submit a bulk quote on request with target CFU/g, annual tonnage, destination port, and packaging needs.

Store unopened sacks in a cool, dry, ventilated warehouse, ideally below 25°C and away from direct sunlight, condensation, volatile chemicals, and strong odors. Keep packaging sealed until use to limit moisture uptake and maintain powder flow. Recommended first-in, first-out stock rotation is standard. Typical shelf life is 18 to 24 months from manufacture when stored under recommended conditions; the confirmed shelf life is stated on the certificate or product label for each lot.

During processing, avoid prolonged exposure to high humidity and verify survival after pelleting, extrusion, or post-pellet liquid application if a final viable count guarantee is required. Use dust control, local exhaust, and appropriate personal protective equipment during dumping or high-speed mixing. Bulk users should validate mixer CV, carryover control, and dosing accuracy before commercial release.

ArtemisYeast supplies ART-AN-049 for inquiry-based B2B procurement, not retail sale. Lot documentation can include certificate of analysis, feed-grade statement, microbial count, moisture, appearance, packing list, and safety data sheet where required. Test parameters may cover viable Bacillus licheniformis count, coliforms, Salmonella absence in specified sample size, yeast and mold limits, heavy metals, and carrier declaration, depending on the agreed specification.

Manufacturing and supply controls are managed using HACCP-aligned quality procedures, with documentation packages available for buyer review. ISO 22000, FSSC 22000, Halal, Kosher, and other compliance records may be provided when applicable to the selected production site and contract grade; no certification should be assumed until confirmed in writing. Visit quality and documentation for the type of records typically requested by feed mills, importers, and nutrition companies.
