Inactive Yeast Protein for Plant-Based Meat

ART-NY-037 is an inactive yeast protein ingredient for manufacturers developing plant-based meat analogues, vegan prepared foods, and dry nutrition systems. Unlike active dry yeast, it is non-leavening and is selected for protein contribution, savory background, process stability, and clean handling in dry premix operations. It can be evaluated as part of the wider nutritional yeast ingredient range where formulators need yeast-derived protein, flavor-supporting solids, and standardized industrial packaging.

Typical specification targets may include protein 45-55% on dry basis, moisture not more than 6.0%, ash 5-9%, beta-glucan fraction 8-15%, and particle size commonly 60-80 mesh depending on lot and milling requirement. The material is generally cream to light beige with a characteristic yeast and light savory note. It is suitable for hydration into emulsified plant-protein matrices, dry blending with pea, soy, wheat, oat, or mycoprotein systems, and inclusion in seasoning carriers where yeast-derived solids improve rounded flavor perception without adding live microbial activity.

• Plant-based meat: burgers, mince, nuggets, sausages, and fillings where inactive yeast protein supports protein labeling targets, savory base notes, and dry-mix standardization.
• Vegan prepared foods: sauces, gravies, dumpling fillings, ready-meal bases, and protein-enriched savory pastes requiring a non-animal ingredient compatible with heat processing.
• Dry premixes: seasoning systems, protein blends, bakery-style savory mixes, and extrusion feed blends where controlled moisture and mesh size help dosing accuracy.
• Supplement and nutrition manufacturing: plant-based powder blends where yeast-derived protein and cell-wall components are desired within a food ingredient specification, subject to the buyer’s formulation and regulatory review.
• R&D screening: bench-scale trials comparing hydration, color, viscosity, flavor masking, and interaction with binders, oils, hydrocolloids, starches, and texturized vegetable proteins. For volume planning, submit intended use, annual demand, and target specification through bulk quote on request.

ART-NY-037 is packed in a 10 kg foil-lined sack to reduce moisture pickup during storage and transit. Store unopened product in a cool, dry, odor-free warehouse, ideally below 25°C and below 65% relative humidity. Keep away from direct sunlight, steam lines, strong oxidizing materials, and volatile aroma compounds. Once opened, reseal the inner liner and use promptly to maintain flowability and sensory consistency.

Typical shelf life is up to 24 months from manufacture when stored in original sealed packaging under recommended conditions. For plant trials, pre-screen hydration rate, mixing order, shear tolerance, and thermal profile because protein systems can vary by matrix pH, salt level, fat phase, and extrusion or retort conditions. Use standard dust-control measures during weighing and transfer, including local extraction where powders are handled at scale.

ArtemisYeast supplies ART-NY-037 for professional food manufacturing with lot traceability and specification review prior to shipment. A typical documentation package can include certificate of analysis, product specification, allergen statement, non-GMO statement where applicable, food-grade declaration, safety data information, and country-of-origin documentation. HACCP-aligned production records and food-safety documentation such as ISO 22000, FSSC 22000, Halal, or Kosher status may be available for relevant lots or facilities; buyers should confirm required documents before order placement through quality and documentation review.

Microbiological and chemical limits are confirmed by lot on the CoA. Common control parameters include total plate count, yeast and mold, coliforms, Salmonella absence in the tested quantity, moisture, protein, ash, sensory appearance, and particle size. ArtemisYeast supports specification matching for procurement teams that need recurring supply, private-label ingredient declarations, multi-site manufacturing approval, or export documentation for international shipments.
