Faex Extract is a natural ingredient, a complex mixture of yeast extract.

It appears as a yellowish or whitish powder with a characteristic odour, deliquescent, water-soluble with an acid reaction pH 6.6

What it is used for and where

Synthesis of high-protein intermediate materials consisting of bacterial growth factors and vitamins.

Food

It improves the taste of food products, softens dough and product, covers up intense flavour, too salty taste and adds a discrete aroma. Typically, fermentation for food products makes use of API, VC, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, amino acids and antibiotics, and makes use of modern biotechnology that biodegrades the nucleic acid and proteins in fresh yeast cells. The end product is free of fatty acids and cholesterol. Microbial culture medium: Bacillus subtilis, yeast and Mycoplasma, Gluconobacter, Acetobacter, Pseudomonas and others.

Dosages: 1.0-1.2% for baked bread, 0.3-0.5% for other products. Fermentation at 35 ~ 38°C.

Cosmetics

In Faex extract, there are peptides, amino acids, vitamins (often vitamin B1 thiamine and B vitamins) that have the function of moisturising and reactivating the skin.

Other uses

Biological compound for biochemical research

Industry

It is obtained, by enzymolysis, from the separation of fresh brewer's yeast emulsion. It contains trace elements, peptides, nucleotides, B vitamins and favourable environments for the growth of microorganisms.

Fermentation

Depending on its uses, Faex extract can be refined by the following fermentation processes:

• Refined product with high nitrogen concentration
• Refined product with low nitrogen concentration
• Refined product to pharmaceutical standards
