Feed-Grade Yeast Beta-Glucan for Poultry

ART-AN-062 is a feed-grade yeast beta-glucan ingredient produced from the cell wall fraction of Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The primary functional component is beta-1,3/1,6-glucan, a structural polysaccharide naturally present in yeast cell walls. It is supplied as a free-flowing beige to light tan powder for dry blending into premixes, concentrates, complete feeds, and water-stable aquafeed matrices. For buyers comparing yeast-derived feed ingredients, related product options are listed under animal nutrition yeast.

Typical specification targets may include beta-glucan not less than 70%, moisture not more than 8%, crude protein not more than 8%, ash not more than 8%, and particle size through 80 mesh, with final values confirmed on the certificate of analysis for each lot. The ingredient is intended for feed manufacturing rather than direct retail sale. It is commonly evaluated by poultry nutritionists for broiler, layer, breeder, and turkey formulas where a concentrated yeast cell wall carbohydrate is required. Bulk quote on request is available through the ArtemisYeast inquiry process.

• Poultry premixes: concentrated yeast beta-glucan input for vitamin-mineral premixes, starter feeds, grower feeds, layer feeds, and breeder programs.
• Livestock compound feed: suitable for swine, calf, dairy, beef, sheep, and goat formulas where yeast cell wall carbohydrates are specified by the nutrition team.
• Aquaculture feed: can be evaluated in shrimp, fish, and other aquafeed systems where fine powder dispersion and pelleting stability are required.
• Feed additive blending: compatible with many dry carriers, yeast derivatives, organic acids, mineral premixes, and specialty feed ingredients, subject to formulation trials.
• Export feed manufacturing: packed in 25 kg woven polypropylene feed sacks for palletized or containerized supply to feed mills, integrators, and regional distributors.

Store ART-AN-062 in a clean, dry, odor-free warehouse away from direct sunlight, condensation, and high humidity. Recommended storage temperature is below 25°C where practical, with sacks kept sealed until use. Under recommended conditions, typical shelf life is 24 months from manufacture; the confirmed retest or expiry date is stated on lot documentation.

Use standard feed-plant dust control and housekeeping procedures during weighing, tipping, and conveying. After opening, reseal unused material and use promptly to reduce moisture pickup. The product is intended for dry feed processing and should be validated by the buyer for thermal steps such as pelleting, extrusion, or expanded feed production.

ArtemisYeast supplies ART-AN-062 for business-to-business feed ingredient procurement with lot traceability and certificate-based release. Typical quality checks include appearance, odor, moisture, beta-glucan content, ash, protein, particle size, bulk density, heavy metals, total plate count, yeast and mold, coliforms, and Salmonella status where required by the buying specification. Exact analytical methods and acceptance limits should be confirmed during technical review.

Manufacturing and packing controls are aligned with feed ingredient good manufacturing practice and HACCP-based risk management. Documentation available on request may include certificate of analysis, specification sheet, safety data sheet, feed-grade declaration, allergen statement, non-GMO statement where applicable, country-of-origin information, and food or feed safety system documents such as ISO 22000, FSSC 22000, Halal, or Kosher when available for the supplying site and lot. Buyers can review the ArtemisYeast documentation approach at quality and documentation before placing a bulk inquiry.
