Viscosity Reducing Enzyme for Animal Feed

ART-EN-065 is a feed-grade viscosity reducing enzyme designed for use in compound feeds containing wheat, barley, rye, triticale, oats, corn by-products, or other ingredients rich in soluble arabinoxylans and beta-glucans. The product is intended to support processing efficiency and ration consistency by reducing the viscosity contribution of non-starch polysaccharides during feed manufacture and digestion. It is suitable for poultry, swine, ruminant, and aquaculture feed applications where formulation teams need an enzyme tool compatible with standard premix and pelleting workflows.

The formulation is supplied as a dry, free-flowing powder on a feed-compatible carrier. Depending on the final specification agreed with the buyer, the activity profile may include xylanase, beta-glucanase, cellulase, or a customized combination. Typical technical targets can include moisture not more than 10%, particle size through 40 to 80 mesh, bulk density approximately 0.45 to 0.75 g/mL, and declared activity reported in U/g on the certificate of analysis. For live yeast specifications, CFU/g is not applicable; this product is an industrial enzyme preparation, not a viable yeast culture. Related fermentation ingredients can be reviewed under enzymes and fermentation products.

• Livestock compound feed: inclusion in wheat, barley, rye, or mixed-grain diets where soluble fiber can increase digesta viscosity and affect feed conversion targets.
• Premix and concentrate production: blending into vitamin-mineral premixes, enzyme premixes, or customer-specific additive packs when carrier compatibility and uniform particle distribution are validated.
• Poultry and swine nutrition: support for nutritionists formulating around non-starch polysaccharide levels, ingredient variability, and grain purchasing changes across seasons.
• Ruminant and specialty feeds: use in textured feed, mash, pellet, or concentrate systems where controlled enzyme addition is required by the plant formulation sheet.
• Feed processing: potential improvement in mash flow, mix uniformity, and reduced stickiness in high-viscosity grain formulas, subject to plant trials and thermal stability selection.
• R&D evaluation: benchtop screening of viscosity reduction, soluble fiber hydrolysis, pellet conditioning tolerance, and compatibility with acids, minerals, probiotics, yeast derivatives, or other feed additives.

Store ART-EN-065 in the original sealed 25 kg multi-wall sack in a cool, dry, well-ventilated warehouse away from direct sunlight, steam lines, strong odors, and condensation. Recommended storage is below 25 °C with relative humidity controlled as low as practical. Under suitable conditions, typical shelf life is 12 to 18 months from manufacture, with the exact retest date stated on the batch document. Enzyme activity may decline with excessive heat, moisture, or prolonged open-bag storage.

Use standard dust-control practices during weighing, tipping, and blending. Operators should avoid inhaling fine powder and should use local exhaust ventilation, gloves, eye protection, and respiratory protection as required by the plant safety assessment. For pelleted feed, addition point, conditioning temperature, retention time, and post-pellet application should be evaluated against the heat stability grade selected. Reseal partly used sacks promptly and rotate inventory by first-expiry-first-out practice.

ArtemisYeast supplies ART-EN-065 for B2B feed manufacturing with batch traceability and specification review before shipment. A certificate of analysis can state product name, SKU, lot number, manufacture date, expiry or retest date, appearance, moisture, declared enzyme activity, and microbiological or heavy metal parameters where included in the agreed specification. Typical documentation available on request may include CoA, safety data sheet, technical data sheet, feed-grade declaration, allergen statement, GMO status statement, and country-of-origin information.

Manufacturing and packing are managed under documented quality systems aligned with feed and food ingredient handling expectations. HACCP, ISO 22000, FSSC 22000, Halal, or Kosher documentation may be available depending on the production site and batch; buyers should confirm requirements before order placement through the quality documentation process. Export labels, pallet configuration, and shipping marks can be coordinated for distributor, integrator, or feed mill receiving requirements.
