Products may be shipped at a different temperature than the recommended long-term storage temperature. If the product quality is sensitive to short-term exposure to conditions other than the recommended long-term storage, it will be shipped on wet or dry-ice. If the product quality is NOT affected by short-term exposure to conditions other than the recommended long-term storage, it will be shipped at ambient temperature. As shipping routes are configured for minimum transit times, shipping at ambient temperature helps control shipping costs for our customers.

General description
Application
- A Comparative Study of Composition and Soluble Polysaccharide Content between Brewer′s Spent Yeast and Cultured Yeast Cells.: This study compares the composition and soluble polysaccharide content of brewer′s spent yeast and cultured yeast cells, highlighting the potential applications of yeast-derived ß-glucan in food industries (Lee et al., 2024). (Lee et al., 2024).
- Attenuation of inflammatory bowel disease by oral administration of mucoadhesive polydopamine-coated yeast ß-glucan via ROS scavenging and gut microbiota regulation.: This article explores the therapeutic potential of yeast ß-glucan in managing inflammatory bowel disease through oxidative stress reduction and gut microbiota modulation (Yang et al., 2024). (Yang et al., 2024).
- Beta-Glucan as a Soluble Dietary Fiber Source: Origins, Biosynthesis, Extraction, Purification, Structural Characteristics, Bioavailability, Biofunctional Attributes, Industrial Utilization, and Global Trade.: This comprehensive review covers the various aspects of ß-glucan, emphasizing its dietary benefits and industrial applications (Singla et al., 2024).

How can I determine the shelf life / expiration / retest date of this product?
1 answer-
If this product has an expiration or retest date, it will be shown on the Certificate of Analysis (COA, CofA). If there is no retest or expiration date listed on the product's COA, we do not have suitable stability data to determine a shelf life. For these products, the only date on the COA will be the release date; a retest, expiration, or use-by-date will not be displayed.
For all products, we recommend handling per defined conditions as printed in our product literature and website product descriptions. We recommend that products should be routinely inspected by customers to ensure they perform as expected.
For products without retest or expiration dates, our standard warranty of 1 year from the date of shipment is applicable.
