• Yeast extract is a nutrient source prepared from Saccharomyces yeast as the main ingredient. This substance is rich in vitamins, proteins and essential substances for growth and development. Yeast extract is known as a useful and natural food supplement and its various products are used by humans. Yeast has been used by humans for many years as a protein and nutrient-producing factory, and with the enzymatic processes of this cell, it can be used as a useful and nutritious substance for the growth of various cells from bacteria to animal cells. Among the compounds of this substance are essential amino acids, which are normally produced by this yeast. The main active ingredients in yeast extract include all B vitamins except vitamin B12, unless brewer’s yeast is also enriched with vitamin (B12). B vitamins including thiamine (B1), riboflavin (B2), niacin (B3), pantothenic acid (B5), pyridoxine (B6), folic acid or folate (B9) and biotin (H) are found in yeast extract.
