Overview
ART-AN-006 Active Dry Feed Yeast is a dried viable yeast product intended for feed manufacturing, premix production, and on-farm ration inclusion. The material is produced from selected Saccharomyces cerevisiae biomass and dried to support activity during storage and transport. Typical specification targets may include viable yeast count of 5×10^10 CFU/g, moisture not more than 8.0%, crude protein around 40–48% on dry basis, ash not more than 8.0%, and light tan to beige granules with characteristic yeast odor. Final values are confirmed by lot-specific certificate of analysis.
The product is designed for use where formulators require a feed yeast with both nutritional contribution and live cell presence. It can contribute amino acids, B-complex vitamins naturally present in yeast biomass, nucleotides, mannans, and beta-glucan fractions. Particle size is typically suitable for mash, pellet, crumble, and premix blending; a common range is 40–80 mesh, with custom screening reviewed by inquiry.

Applications
- Livestock and ruminant feed: Used in dairy, beef, sheep, and goat rations where nutritionists specify viable yeast biomass for total mixed rations, concentrates, and mineral premixes. Inclusion rate depends on diet design, animal class, and local feed regulations.
- Swine production: Suitable for sow, nursery, grower, and finisher feed programs when a feed-grade active yeast source is required for dry blends, extruded feeds, or pelleted formulas subject to temperature review.
- Poultry feed: Applied in broiler, layer, breeder, and specialty poultry formulations as part of protein, nucleotide, and yeast cell wall ingredient strategies. It disperses well in mash feed and premix systems when blended with carriers.
- Aquaculture feed: Used in fish and shrimp feed formulations where formulators require yeast-derived nutrients in floating, sinking, or extruded feed systems. Heat exposure should be assessed if live count retention is a purchasing requirement.
- Premix and additive manufacturing: Supplied for feed additive distributors, toll blenders, and compound feed plants that need a stable bulk yeast input packed in 25 kg feed sacks with export documentation available on request.
Storage and Handling
Store ART-AN-006 in a cool, dry, ventilated warehouse away from direct sunlight, moisture, strong odors, and oxidizing materials. Recommended storage temperature is below 25 °C where practical, with relative humidity controlled to reduce caking and activity loss. Keep sacks sealed until use and close opened bags promptly. Under recommended conditions, typical shelf life is 18–24 months from production date, subject to final lot specification and destination conditions.
For best performance, add the material after high-moisture steps when possible and validate live count retention if the feed process includes steam conditioning, extrusion, or prolonged high temperature exposure. Standard pack size is 25 kg woven polypropylene feed sack; pallet configuration, container loading, and private label packing can be reviewed through bulk quote on request.
Quality and Documentation
ArtemisYeast supplies ART-AN-006 for professional feed and nutrition customers with procurement documentation aligned to international bulk trade requirements. A certificate of analysis can include appearance, moisture, viable count, crude protein, ash, particle size, and microbiological indicators such as total plate count, yeast and mold, coliforms, Salmonella, and heavy metals where specified. Product specifications should be confirmed at order stage because regulatory requirements vary by destination and intended species.
Manufacturing documentation may include HACCP-aligned production records, ISO 22000, FSSC 22000, Halal, or Kosher documentation where available for the requested origin and batch. Feed-grade declaration, non-GMO statement, allergen statement, SDS, and export documents are available on request. Buyers can review ArtemisYeast quality practices at quality and documentation or submit technical parameters for approval before purchase. Wholesale pricing on request applies for full-pallet, mixed-container, and recurring contract supply.
