Feed-Grade Active Dry Yeast for Animal Nutrition

ART-AN-041 is a feed-grade active dry yeast designed for animal nutrition applications where a standardized live yeast source is required. The ingredient is produced from selected Saccharomyces cerevisiae biomass, dried to preserve viability, and milled to a feed-compatible particle profile for uniform distribution in complete feed, concentrates, mineral-vitamin premixes, and top-dress formats. Typical specification targets include viable count of 5.0×10^10 CFU/g at packing, moisture not more than 8.0%, crude protein not less than 40%, ash not more than 8.0%, and practical mesh distribution suitable for feed blending. Final values are confirmed by lot-specific certificate of analysis.

For procurement teams comparing yeast inputs, ART-AN-041 offers a single-SKU option for ruminant, poultry, swine, and aquaculture feed programs. It can be used where formulations call for live yeast rather than inactive yeast, yeast extract, or yeast cell wall products. The product is supplied in 25 kg woven polypropylene feed sacks for warehouse handling and export logistics. Related feed yeast ingredients can be reviewed in our animal nutrition yeast category, and bulk quote on request is available through ArtemisYeast procurement inquiry.

• Ruminant feed: inclusion in dairy, beef, sheep, and goat rations, including total mixed rations, concentrates, calf starter formulations, and mineral feed systems where a live yeast ingredient is specified by the nutritionist.
• Poultry feed: use in broiler, layer, breeder, and turkey feed formulas as a feed-grade yeast component with defined viable count and low moisture for stable dry blending.
• Swine feed: suitable for creep feed, nursery feed, grower-finisher diets, and sow rations when the formulation requires a live yeast source compatible with pelleted or mash feed manufacturing conditions.
• Aquaculture feed: applicable in fish and shrimp feed premixes where Saccharomyces cerevisiae biomass is used as a functional yeast ingredient; processing temperature should be reviewed to protect live cell count.
• Premix and feed additive blending: can be distributed into carrier systems such as rice hull powder, calcium carbonate, wheat middlings, or other approved feed carriers, subject to local regulation and customer formulation requirements.

Store ART-AN-041 in the original sealed 25 kg sack in a cool, dry, ventilated warehouse away from direct sunlight, condensation, strong odors, and chemical contaminants. Recommended storage is below 25°C with relative humidity controlled to protect flowability and viable count. Under recommended conditions, typical shelf life is up to 24 months from manufacture; the exact best-before date is printed or documented by lot.

Because this is an active dry yeast, prolonged exposure to high heat, steam, or moisture can reduce viability. For pelleted feeds, validate the expected CFU recovery after conditioning, pelleting, cooling, and finished-feed storage. Opened sacks should be resealed promptly and consumed quickly in premix rooms. Use dust-control practices, avoid rough handling that damages packaging, and rotate inventory on a first-expire, first-out basis.

ArtemisYeast supplies ART-AN-041 with lot traceability and quality documentation appropriate for B2B feed procurement. A certificate of analysis can include viable yeast count, moisture, crude protein, ash, sensory status, and microbiological indicators as agreed in the purchase specification. Heavy metals, mycotoxin screening, feed-grade declaration, GMO status statement, allergen statement, Halal, Kosher, HACCP, ISO 22000, or FSSC 22000 documentation may be available on request depending on production lot and supply program.

Incoming quality plans can be aligned with customer requirements for feed mill audits, vendor approval, export customs, and third-party testing. For specification review, packaging confirmation, and document requests, contact ArtemisYeast through the quality documentation page before purchase order placement. Wholesale pricing on request is provided after target specification, order quantity, destination port or warehouse, and delivery schedule are confirmed.
