Copper Enriched Inactive Yeast
Copper enriched yeast is an inactive nutritional yeast ingredient in which copper is incorporated into yeast biomass during controlled fermentation. ART-NY-050 is supplied for dietary supplement manufacturers that require a fermentation-derived copper source compatible with vegan and plant-based positioning. The material is offered in 10 kg foil-lined sacks for B2B formulation, tableting, encapsulation, and premix operations. Wholesale pricing on request is available through ArtemisYeast with specification review, documentation matching, and export packing support.

Overview
ART-NY-050 is an inactive copper yeast produced by enriching yeast biomass during fermentation, followed by controlled drying and milling. The ingredient is designed for supplement-grade use where formulators need a mineral source distributed within a yeast matrix rather than a simple inorganic salt. Typical specification targets may include copper at 2,000-5,000 mg/kg, moisture ≤6.0%, protein 40-50%, ash 5-10%, and particle size through 80 mesh, with final limits confirmed by certificate of analysis for each lot.
The product is not a live yeast and is not intended for leavening or brewing fermentation. It is used as a nutritional ingredient in dry blends, capsules, tablets, sachets, and functional premixes. Procurement teams can compare this material with other items in our nutritional yeast category when building multi-mineral yeast programs or plant-based supplement portfolios.
Applications
- Dietary supplement capsules and tablets: suitable for mineral yeast formulas, multinutrient blends, and vegan-positioned products where a fermentation-derived copper input is preferred.
- Powder premixes and sachets: fine, free-flowing powder can be blended with nutritional yeast, vitamin premixes, plant proteins, fibers, or flavor systems after compatibility testing.
- Contract manufacturing: supplied in 10 kg foil-lined sacks for weighing rooms, low-volume mineral dosing, pilot batches, and scale-up to commercial production.
- R&D formulation: useful for evaluating mineral dispersion, tablet color, organoleptic impact, and copper contribution per serving; finished-product claims and label declarations remain the buyer’s responsibility.
- Ingredient sourcing programs: bulk quote on request for distributors, supplement brands, and CMOs requiring repeatable lot documentation and export-ready packaging.
Storage and Handling
Store unopened sacks in a cool, dry, odor-free warehouse, ideally below 25°C and below 60% relative humidity. Keep away from direct sunlight, water, strong oxidizing materials, and volatile aromas that may be absorbed by dry yeast ingredients. After opening, reseal the foil liner or transfer the powder to a clean, dry, food-contact container and use promptly according to the site’s material control procedure.
Typical shelf life is 24 months from manufacture when stored in original unopened packaging under recommended conditions. Because copper minerals can influence color and flavor in sensitive formulas, ArtemisYeast recommends bench testing before full-scale blending. For pack-out, logistics, and lead-time planning, buyers may submit batch requirements through request a bulk quote.
Quality and Documentation
Each commercial lot is released against agreed specifications covering copper assay, moisture, microbiological limits, particle size, sensory attributes, and heavy metal limits appropriate for the intended market. A certificate of analysis, specification sheet, allergen statement, non-GMO status statement where applicable, and food-grade declaration can be provided on request. Additional documentation for HACCP-aligned manufacturing, ISO 22000 or FSSC 22000 systems, Halal, and Kosher status may be supplied where applicable to the confirmed production site and lot.
ArtemisYeast supports procurement qualification with traceability review, retained-sample policy, packaging photographs, and export document coordination.
