Overview
ART-BS-002 is a biosynthetic fermentation ingredient based on vitamin K2 as menaquinone-7, with an all-trans MK-7 profile specified for formulation consistency. It is intended for manufacturers that need a low-use-level active ingredient with traceable batch release, clear handling requirements, and compatibility review for dry blends, softgel fills, beadlets, emulsions, and cosmetic oil phases. This is a non-live ingredient; CFU/g is not applicable.
Typical procurement specifications may include assay by HPLC, all-trans MK-7 not less than 98% of total MK-7 isomers, controlled residual solvents, heavy metals tested by ICP-MS, and microbiological limits suitable for food or cosmetic ingredient use. Powder lots are commonly supplied as stabilized yellow to orange powder with moisture not more than 5.0% and practical 40–80 mesh handling, while oil-dispersible formats can be reviewed by request.

Applications
- Dietary supplement manufacturing: tablets, capsules, premixes, and softgel systems where MK-7 assay, dispersion, and label declaration must be controlled.
- Functional food development: nutrient fortification projects, powdered beverages, bars, and emulsified systems after stability and regulatory review by the buyer.
- Cosmetic active ingredients: oil-phase or encapsulated cosmetic formulations that require a fermentation-derived active with defined identity and purity documentation.
- R&D and scale-up: 5 kg foil pouch supply supports prototype batches, pilot runs, validation work, and transition to recurring production orders.
- Contract manufacturing: suitable for CMOs needing a documented ingredient, retained samples, consistent packaging, and a bulk quote on request.
Storage and Handling
Store ART-BS-002 in the original sealed foil pouch, protected from oxygen, moisture, direct light, and high heat. Recommended warehouse storage is cool and dry, typically 15–25 °C, with lower-temperature storage considered for long inventory holds after buyer validation. Reseal opened pouches promptly or transfer material under controlled conditions to minimize exposure.
Typical shelf life is 24 months from manufacture when unopened and stored as recommended, subject to the lot CoA and product format. Vitamin K2 MK-7 is sensitive to light and oxidative stress, so plant teams should minimize hold time in open hoppers, use clean dry utensils, and validate compatibility with minerals, alkaline systems, oxidizing agents, and high-temperature process steps.
Quality and Documentation
ArtemisYeast supplies ART-BS-002 as an inquiry-only B2B ingredient with lot-specific documentation. Available documents may include certificate of analysis, specification sheet, allergen statement, food-grade or cosmetic-grade declaration, SDS, composition statement, non-GMO position where applicable, and origin or manufacturing-flow information subject to confidentiality review.
Manufacturing and supplier qualification records are managed through controlled quality systems, with HACCP-aligned production review and ISO 22000, FSSC 22000, Halal, Kosher, or related documentation available when applicable to the contracted lot. Buyers can review our quality documentation process before purchase. Release testing can cover identity, assay, trans-isomer ratio, microbiology, heavy metals, residual solvents, appearance, moisture, and packaging integrity. Bulk quote on request; no public pricing is listed.
