Ruminant Active Dry Yeast

ART-AN-045 is a feed-grade active dry yeast produced for use in animal nutrition systems where a live yeast input is specified. The product is typically based on selected Saccharomyces cerevisiae biomass dried to low moisture while maintaining viable cell activity. Indicative specifications may include viable count ≥5×10^10 CFU/g, moisture ≤8.0%, crude protein approximately 40–48%, ash ≤8.0%, and light tan to brown granular powder appearance. Final release values should be confirmed against the lot-specific certificate of analysis.

The ingredient is designed for dry blending into premixes, mineral feeds, complete feeds, milk replacer systems where permitted by local regulation, and aquaculture diets. It can be used by formulators seeking a consistent yeast-based component rather than a liquid fermentate or wet biomass. For adjacent yeast ingredients, procurement teams can review the animal nutrition yeast category or submit formulation requirements through bulk quote on request.

• Ruminant feed: inclusion in dairy, beef, calf, sheep, and goat rations through premix or total mixed ration systems, subject to nutritionist guidance and local feed rules.
• Swine and poultry feed: dry blending into complete feed, concentrate, or premix lines when a live yeast ingredient with defined CFU/g is required.
• Aquaculture feed: use in pelleted or extruded feed concepts for fish and shrimp, with processing conditions validated to protect yeast viability where live count is part of the specification.
• Feed mill operations: suitable for bulk ingredient handling, micro-ingredient weighing, ribbon blending, and bagged premix production when dust control and segregation checks are included in the plant procedure.
• R&D and validation batches: available for pilot feed trials, comparative formulation work, and scale-up planning before full pallet or container procurement.

Store unopened sacks in a cool, dry, ventilated warehouse away from direct sunlight, condensate, and strong odors. Recommended storage is below 25°C with relative humidity controlled; avoid prolonged exposure to high heat because viable yeast count can decline under severe storage or processing conditions. Keep bags sealed after opening and use opened material promptly according to the site’s feed hygiene program.

Standard packing is a 25 kg woven polypropylene feed sack with inner liner or equivalent moisture barrier, depending on destination and order specification. Typical shelf life is up to 24 months from manufacture when stored in original packaging under recommended conditions, although live count retention should be verified on the CoA for critical applications. During pelleting or extrusion, confirm post-process viability if live yeast declaration is required on finished feed.

ArtemisYeast supplies ART-AN-045 for professional feed manufacturing and industrial ingredient procurement. Lot documentation may include certificate of analysis, product specification, safety data sheet, allergen or GMO status statement where applicable, and feed-grade declaration. Microbiological parameters commonly controlled include total plate count limits, coliforms, mold and yeast background where specified, and absence criteria for relevant feed contaminants according to the agreed specification.

Manufacturing and logistics documentation can be aligned with customer audit needs, including HACCP-based controls and availability of ISO 22000, FSSC 22000, Halal, or Kosher documentation where applicable to the producing site and lot. Buyers can request documentation review, sample availability, and export paperwork through the quality documentation page before issuing a purchase order.
