Inactive Yeast Protein White Powder

ART-NY-004 is an inactive yeast protein white powder produced from selected yeast biomass and processed to provide a light cream to off-white protein ingredient with low viable yeast activity. It is not intended for fermentation performance; it is used as a nutritional and functional dry ingredient in vegan foods, plant-based meat systems, powdered beverages, capsules, tablets, and seasoning bases. For broader category sourcing, see our nutritional yeast ingredients portfolio.

Typical specification targets may include protein 50-60% on dry basis, moisture not more than 6%, ash not more than 10%, fat not more than 8%, and particle size through 80 mesh depending on the production lot and agreed specification. The ingredient naturally contains yeast cell-wall fractions, including beta-glucan and mannan components, and provides amino acids, peptides, minerals, and B-complex nutrient contribution without the strong yellow color often associated with conventional nutritional yeast flakes. Flavor is mild yeasty to cereal-like, allowing formulators to use it in high-inclusion applications where color and flavor impact must be controlled.

• Vegan and plant-based foods: protein fortification for meat alternatives, dairy-free sauces, meal bases, savory fillings, extruded snacks, and powdered soup systems where animal-derived ingredients are excluded.
• Plant-based meat: supports protein labeling targets, umami background, and dry-mix consistency in burger, mince, nugget, and sausage-style formulations. It can be evaluated alongside pea, soy, wheat, or rice protein to balance flavor and processing behavior.
• Dietary supplement manufacturing: suitable for dry blend, capsule, sachet, and tablet concepts where a yeast-derived protein source is required. Final suitability depends on the buyer's label, market, and regulatory review.
• Food manufacturing and R&D: useful in pilot trials for protein enrichment, savory base development, nutrition bar systems, and bakery fillings that require a fine powder rather than flakes or granules.
• Procurement programs: supplied as ART-NY-004 in 10 kg foil-lined sacks for batch traceability, warehouse control, and easier sampling-to-scale transition. Submit a bulk quote on request with target specification, destination port, and annual forecast.

Store sealed sacks in a cool, dry, odor-free warehouse, ideally below 25 C and below 65% relative humidity. Protect from moisture pickup, direct sunlight, insects, and strong-smelling materials. After opening, reseal the inner liner promptly and use the remaining powder within the plant's validated handling window. Typical shelf life is up to 24 months from manufacture when stored in original unopened packaging under recommended conditions, subject to the confirmed certificate of analysis and local requirements.

Because this is a fine protein powder, use standard dust-control measures during dumping, weighing, and blending. Recommended handling includes local extraction where required, grounded transfer equipment, food-grade contact surfaces, allergen and cross-contact review by the receiving facility, and first-in, first-out inventory rotation. Pre-production trials are recommended to confirm hydration rate, mouthfeel, color contribution, and compatibility with salt, acids, flavors, hydrocolloids, and heat processing.

ArtemisYeast supplies ART-NY-004 for industrial food and supplement ingredient buyers that require repeatable documentation, lot traceability, and specification alignment before purchase. A certificate of analysis can be provided by lot, typically covering appearance, odor, moisture, protein, ash, particle size, and microbiological limits such as total plate count, yeast and mold, coliforms, and absence testing for specified pathogens according to the agreed sales specification.

Manufacturing documentation may include food-grade declaration, non-GMO statement where applicable, allergen statement, heavy metals summary, and country-of-origin details on request. HACCP-aligned production controls and documentation for ISO 22000, FSSC 22000, Halal, or Kosher status may be available depending on the contracted plant and lot; buyers should confirm required documents before ordering.
