Product Introduction
The Saccharotide® Series is a portfolio of yeast-derived nutritional ingredients designed to deliver both protein value and functional benefits in modern animal feeding programs.
Produced through controlled enzymatic processing of fresh brewer’s yeast (food grade), Saccharotide® products provide varying combinations of digestible protein, small peptides, nucleotides, and oligosaccharotide derived from yeast cell wall components. Rather than offering a single, generic yeast product, the Saccharotide® series are structured to address different nutritional objectives across species, production stages, and formulation strategies.
Worthy to note, owing to the plant facility advantages and advanced processing technology, freshness of brewer’s yeast are ensured during processing, hence super low bioamines, even much lower than even premium fish meal and other premium yeast culture product, esp. histamine and cadaverine that are not desired for most animal feed.
Each product within the series is developed with a distinct nutritional role, ranging from highly digestible protein supply to functional support for gut health, immunity, and stress resilience.
Mode of Actions
Across the portfolio, Saccharotide® ingredients act through a combination of nutritional and functional mechanisms.
Enzymatic hydrolysis converts brewer’s yeast cell biomass into small peptides, nucleic acids, oligosaccharotides and free amino acids etc. Through further separation and isolation processing, Saccharotide® 80P, Saccharotide® Nucleo and Saccharotide® 50P etc. are produced.
Depending on the product type, Saccharotide® ingredients may provide not only high content of digestible protein, but also yeast-derived bioactives such as nucleotides, β-glucans, and mannan oligosaccharides. These components are associated with modulation of gut integrity, immune response, and oxidative balance, contributing to overall animal robustness and production resilience.
As yeast-based ingredients, Saccharotide® products are free from common plant-derived anti-nutritional factors typically associated with conventional plant protein meals and are suitable for consistent inclusion across a wide range of feed formulations.
Product Portfolio
Saccharotide® 80P is a high-protein (min. 80% crude protein) yeast concentrate developed for efficient amino acid delivery. It is characterized by a high proportion of small peptides and a well-balanced amino acid profile. Digestibility has been evaluated in swine, demonstrating high standardized ileal digestibility of essential amino acids. Also high gross energy and digestible energy was measured and reported in-vitro. is Saccharotide® 80P is primarily positioned as premium protein sources for wine feed and aquafeed while remaining applicable to other species requiring highly digestible protein sources.
Saccharotide® Nucleo is a functional yeast-derived ingredient rich in nucleotides. It is designed to support growth performance, immune function, and antioxidant capacity, particularly in aquaculture species exposed to intensive farming conditions. Its positioning focuses on functional nutrition rather than primary protein contribution.
Saccharotide® 50P is a balanced protein base combining moderate protein content with yeast cell wall fractions, including β-glucans and mannan oligosaccharides. It is formulated to support gut health and formulation flexibility in cost-sensitive feeding programs. This product is positioned based on composition and functional ingredient logic rather than direct performance trials, esp fit for pet food formula.
Key Benefits
The Saccharotide® Series offers a flexible solution set rather than a single-purpose ingredient. Formulators can select products based on specific nutritional goals, whether targeting protein efficiency, functional health support, or cost-effective inclusion.
The portfolio allows clear separation between products supported by digestibility or performance data and those designed for structural or functional roles in feed formulations. This transparency supports responsible product positioning and regulatory alignment.
As yeast-derived ingredients, Saccharotide® products contribute to diversification of protein and functional inputs, supporting sustainable feed formulation strategies.
Its natural taste, derived from brewer’s yeast, is favored by most pets through decades’ history of usage.
Frequently Asked Questions
Yes. The series are applicable to multiple species. Individual products within the portfolio are optimized for different use cases, such as protein efficiency in swine or functional support in aquaculture.
Product selection should be guided by nutritional targets, species requirements, production stage, and cost considerations.
Conventional yeast ingredients are often positioned either as bulk protein sources or as generic functional additives. The Saccharotide® series are structured as a differentiated portfolio, with each product designed for a specific nutritional role. Differences between products are defined by protein level, degree of hydrolysis, and the presence of targeted yeast-derived bioactives rather than by origin alone.
Saccharotide® products are not intended as one-to-one replacements for conventional protein meals. Instead, they are designed to complement existing protein sources by improving digestibility, functional performance, or formulation flexibility, depending on the product selected.
Yes. Products within the Saccharotide® Series may be particularly suitable for early-life stages, where digestive capacity and immune resilience are still developing. Selection should be aligned with species and nutritional objectives, with consideration given to protein digestibility and functional support needs.
Yes. Due to the natural taste and smell, derived from brewer’s yeast, is favored by most pets through decades’ history of usage, Saccharotide® products could be added into pet food with appropriate inclusion rate for better nutrition profile and better palatability for pets, subject to pet nutritionist formula.
