Dried Pichia pastoris - Feed Ingredient

Dried Pichia pastoris refers to the inactivated and dried biomass of the yeast species Pichia pastoris, a methylotrophic yeast widely used in biotechnology and industrial fermentation. This yeast is known for its capacity to express high levels of recombinant proteins and enzymes.

In animal nutrition, including equine feed applications, dried Pichia pastoris may be included as a source of fermentation metabolites, functional proteins, or yeast cell wall components such as beta-glucans and mannans. These compounds can influence gut health, microbial balance, and immune modulation.
