Animal Feed Xylanase Enzyme

ART-EN-068 is a feed-focused xylanase preparation designed for industrial dosing into vitamin-mineral premixes, micro-ingredient systems, mash feed, and pelleted livestock feed. Xylanase catalyzes the hydrolysis of beta-1,4-xylosidic linkages in xylan and arabinoxylan fractions naturally present in cereal cell walls. In practical feed manufacturing, it is specified where nutritionists need a consistent enzyme input for non-starch polysaccharide management, especially in formulas containing wheat, barley, rye, triticale, or variable co-product streams.

Typical commercial specifications can be aligned to the application and may include activity ranges such as 10,000 to 100,000 U/g, moisture not more than 8%, light tan to brown free-flowing powder, and particle size with 90% passing 40 mesh unless a premix-ready granule is requested. Standardization is normally performed on a feed-compatible carrier to improve distribution in dry blending. Working pH is commonly in the acidic to near-neutral range, and standard powder grades are used for mash or low-heat processes. For feed plants running steam conditioning, a coated or thermostable grade can be evaluated against target conditioning temperature, retention time, and post-pellet activity requirements.

As part of the ArtemisYeast enzymes and fermentation portfolio, this item is intended for procurement teams that need repeatable lots, export-ready packing, and specification matching rather than a retail product. Wholesale pricing on request is available for pallet, container, and recurring supply programs.

• Compound livestock feed: inclusion in cereal-rich rations for swine, poultry, ruminant concentrates, and multi-species feed programs where xylanase activity is part of the nutrition matrix.
• Premix manufacturing: dilution into vitamin-mineral premixes or enzyme blends where controlled carrier compatibility, flowability, and uniform distribution are required before final feed manufacture.
• Pelleted feed systems: use in feed mills after review of conditioning temperature, die specification, moisture addition, and expected retention time. Thermostable or coated options may be quoted when pelleting stress is significant.
• Raw material variability management: support for formulas using wheat middlings, barley, rye, triticale, bran fractions, and other cereal co-products with variable arabinoxylan content.
• R&D and formulation trials: supply for feed nutritionists and technical service teams conducting side-by-side trials, activity recovery checks, or reformulation work across cereal bases and processing conditions.
• Integrated ingredient programs: coordination with yeast-derived and fermentation inputs where a single procurement channel simplifies documentation, shipment planning, and supplier qualification.

Store ART-EN-068 in the original sealed 25 kg multi-wall sack in a cool, dry, well-ventilated warehouse, typically 5-25 °C, away from direct sunlight, steam lines, liquid chemicals, and strong odors. Keep bags closed after opening and avoid prolonged exposure to humid air, as enzyme powders can lose activity when exposed to moisture or high temperature. Under recommended storage conditions, typical shelf life is 12 to 24 months depending on formulation, activity grade, and packaging configuration; the confirmed shelf life is stated on the lot documentation.

Use controlled transfer methods to minimize dust generation during weighing and premix addition. Standard industrial hygiene practices are recommended, including local exhaust where available and appropriate eye, skin, and respiratory protection for operators handling concentrated enzyme powders. Do not mix directly with highly alkaline materials, oxidizing agents, or hot liquid streams unless compatibility has been confirmed. For automated dosing systems, confirm bulk density, flow behavior, bridge risk, and screen size before commissioning at full production scale.

Each lot can be supplied with a Certificate of Analysis covering enzyme activity, appearance, moisture, and other agreed release parameters. Technical data sheets, safety data sheets, feed-grade statements, allergen or GMO-status declarations, and country-specific import documents are available on request where applicable. Manufacturing and release controls are managed through documented quality systems, with HACCP-aligned processing and certification documentation such as ISO 22000, FSSC 22000, Halal, or Kosher provided when available for the quoted grade and production site.

Procurement teams can request a specification comparison before approval to align activity units, analytical method, carrier, granulation, packaging, labeling, shelf life, and export documentation. ArtemisYeast supports supplier qualification by providing lot traceability, retained-sample controls where applicable, and change-notification expectations for recurring programs. Review documentation requirements through our quality documentation process, or submit formulation, activity, and shipment details through request a bulk quote for technical and commercial confirmation.
