Red Yeast Extract Monascus Red Powder

Product Description

What Is Red yeast extract？

Red yeast rice, or simply red yeast, is a rice made by inoculating steamed rice with Monascus spp. and fermenting it. It is purple-red in color and is used for fermentation, preservation, food coloring, and other functions. It is a natural food additive.

Red yeast extract, a traditional food and medicine ingredient made from rice fermented with Monascus, contains monascus pigments, lovastatin (monacolin K), ergosterol, and other active substances.

Red yeast is made from indica rice using modern biotechnology to isolate high-quality Monascus purpureus, a fungus that is refined through submerged fermentation. It is a natural, highly safe, and beneficial food additive. Its vibrant, pure, rich color and excellent light and heat stability make it an ideal colorant for natural, green foods.

It has a wide range of applications, including food (meat products, juices, colored wines, jams, beverages, candies, pastries, soy sauce, and health vinegar); pharmaceuticals (drug colorants, functional health supplements); and cosmetics.

Monascus pigment is a high-quality natural food pigment produced through fermentation of the filamentous fungus Monascus. It is a secondary metabolite of Monascus.

Monascus pigment, also known as Monascus Red, is a natural red pigment made from rice and soybeans through liquid fermentation, extraction, concentration, and refinement of Monascus. It also uses red yeast rice as a raw material through extraction, concentration, and refinement.
