Yeast Cell Wall Dietary Fiber

ART-NY-091 is an inactive yeast cell wall fraction produced from food-grade yeast biomass and concentrated to provide insoluble and partially soluble dietary fiber components. The key functional components are mannan and beta-1,3/1,6-D-glucan, supported by residual yeast protein, minerals, and non-fermentable cell wall solids. It is not an active baker’s yeast and is not intended to provide leavening activity; it is specified as a nutritional and functional dry ingredient for industrial food systems.

Typical specification targets include moisture not more than 8%, beta-glucan 20-35%, mannan 15-30%, total dietary fiber 35-55%, protein 18-30%, ash not more than 8%, and particle size commonly 60-100 mesh, subject to lot confirmation. Color is light cream to tan, with a mild yeast cereal note. For related ingredients, see our nutritional yeast category, or request a bulk quote through ArtemisYeast inquiry support.

• Plant-based meat: Adds dietary fiber solids, improves dry mix density, and supports bite, water management, and savory base structure in burgers, nuggets, mince, sausages, and hybrid vegetable-protein systems.
• Extruded and texturized protein: Suitable for pre-blending with pea, soy, wheat, fava, or mycoprotein bases where fiber enrichment and matrix-building solids are required.
• Vegan and vegetarian prepared foods: Can be used in fillings, dumplings, patties, meat analogues, sauces, and frozen prepared meals where a yeast-derived fiber ingredient is preferred.
• Dry nutrition and supplement blends: Provides yeast cell wall mannan and beta-glucan as labeled fiber components in powders, sachets, tablets, and capsules, subject to local regulatory review.
• Process compatibility: Performs well in ribbon blending, high-shear mixing, retort-stable savory systems, chilled processing, and frozen distribution. Pilot validation is recommended to optimize hydration level, salt balance, flavor masking, and inclusion rate.

ART-NY-091 is supplied in 10 kg foil-lined sacks designed to protect the powder from moisture pickup during normal warehousing and international transit. Store unopened bags in a cool, dry, odor-free area, ideally below 25°C and below 65% relative humidity. Keep away from direct sunlight, steam lines, open water, and highly aromatic raw materials. Under recommended storage conditions, typical shelf life is 24 months from manufacture, pending confirmation on the certificate of analysis.

After opening, reseal the inner liner and use promptly to limit caking and aroma absorption. The material is a fine dry powder; operators should use appropriate dust controls, local ventilation, and standard personal protective equipment for dry ingredient handling. For food plants using allergen-controlled or vegan production, verify cross-contact statements and country-specific labeling requirements before commercial launch.

ArtemisYeast supplies ART-NY-091 for B2B qualification with lot-based documentation available on request. A certificate of analysis can include appearance, moisture, protein, ash, particle size, beta-glucan, mannan, microbiological limits, and heavy metal screening where specified by contract. Typical microbiological targets include total plate count limits, yeast and mold limits, and absence criteria for relevant food pathogens, confirmed per agreed test methods.

Manufacturing and supplier controls are managed through documented food-safety and traceability programs. HACCP-aligned production statements, ISO 22000 or FSSC 22000 documentation, Halal and Kosher declarations, GMO status, vegan suitability, allergen statements, and country-of-origin documents may be available depending on production site and lot.
