Dried Candida rugosa Fermentation Extract - Feed Ingredient

Dried Candida rugosa fermentation extract is a feed ingredient derived from the controlled fermentation of the yeast Candida rugosa. The fermentation process produces a range of bioactive compounds, including enzymes such as lipases, which are retained in the dried extract.

In equine nutrition, this ingredient is typically used as a source of exogenous enzymes, particularly for fat digestion. Lipase activity from C. rugosa fermentation may support the breakdown of dietary lipids in the gastrointestinal tract, potentially enhancing fat utilization in the diet.

This extract is considered a fermentation product, meaning it includes not only enzyme activity but also microbial metabolites and cell components.
