Method for production of dry yeast containing s-adenosyl-l-methionine and having excellent storage stability, product produced by the method, and molded composition of the dry yeast

Abstract

The present invention relates to a method for producing a dry yeast containing S-adenosyl-L-methionine using a yeast having production capability of S-adenosyl-L-methionine, the method containing: adding a cyclodextrin compound to a yeast concentrate obtained from a fungus culture liquid of the yeast; and then drying the concentrate, an SAMe-containing dry yeast obtained by the production method, and a composition formed by molding the dry yeast. According to the present invention, a dry yeast containing S-adenosyl-L-methionine, which is useful as an aqueous physiologically active substance, in a high concentration excellent in storage stability and a composition obtained by molding the dry yeast can be produced conveniently and economically and can be brought into the market.
