Chromium-Enriched Yeast

ART-NY-007 is produced by cultivating food-grade yeast in a controlled chromium-containing medium, followed by inactivation, washing, drying, and milling. The result is a non-viable nutritional yeast powder in which chromium is incorporated into the yeast matrix rather than added only as a simple mineral salt. Typical commercial specifications may include total chromium at 1,000-2,000 mg/kg, moisture not more than 8.0%, crude protein 35-45%, ash 5-10%, and 80 mesh pass rate above 90%; final limits are confirmed by the product specification sheet and certificate of analysis.

This ingredient is intended for manufacturers that require a vegan, plant-origin carrier with trace-mineral fortification potential, mild yeast notes, and good compatibility with dry blending processes. It is not positioned as certified agricultural organic unless specifically documented. For related inactive yeast ingredients, see our nutritional yeast category, or contact ArtemisYeast for lot-specific chromium level, particle size, and microbiological limits.

• Vegan foods and fortified powders: used in dry mixes, meal replacements, seasoning blends, and nutritional premixes where a yeast-based chromium source is preferred over inorganic mineral salts.
• Plant-based meat and savory systems: suitable for low-inclusion fortification where the yeast matrix can support umami background notes, dry dispersion, and label alignment with non-animal formulations.
• Dietary supplement manufacturing: compatible with encapsulation, tableting, sachet filling, and premix production. R&D teams should validate dosage uniformity, chromium assay, and excipient interactions under their own formulation conditions.
• Contract manufacturing and private label: supplied for procurement programs requiring repeatable sack size, batch traceability, and wholesale pricing on request through ArtemisYeast bulk inquiry.

Store sealed sacks in a clean, dry, odor-free warehouse at 5-25 °C, away from direct sunlight, high humidity, and volatile materials. Typical shelf life is 24 months from manufacture when unopened and stored under recommended conditions; confirm the assigned shelf life on the CoA or product label. After opening, reseal promptly or transfer to a closed food-grade container to limit moisture pickup and cross-contamination.

The product is an inactive powder and is not intended for fermentation performance. Use appropriate dust control, sieving, and metal-detection steps in industrial handling. Operators should validate blend uniformity because chromium-containing ingredients are often used at low inclusion rates.

ArtemisYeast supports procurement with specification review, batch traceability, and export documentation for ART-NY-007. A certificate of analysis can include appearance, moisture, total chromium assay, protein, ash, particle size, heavy metals, total plate count, yeast and mold, coliforms, and Salmonella status, depending on the agreed specification. Manufacturing and supplier files may include HACCP-aligned controls, ISO 22000, FSSC 22000, Halal, Kosher, food-grade declaration, allergen statement, non-GMO statement, vegan suitability statement, and safety data sheet as documentation available on request.

For qualification, ArtemisYeast recommends pilot-lot testing before commercial launch, especially for supplement tablets, capsules, and high-mineral premixes. Our quality documentation team can align test methods, destination-market paperwork, and packaging requirements before shipment.
