Early in vivo insights into UpFiber® Beta-Glucan targeting healthy aging
Yeastup AG, a food tech company developing functional ingredients from brewer’s spent yeast, transforms brewery by-products into high-value yeast-derived proteins and fibers for functional ingredients. With Nagi’s SydLab™ One platform and Nagi™ B-Age AI-based assay, Yeastup AG evaluated the functional impact of a yeast-derived beta-glucan ingredient (UpFiber® Beta-Glucan) across five concentrations in C. elegans.
The results below reveal that UpFiber® Beta-Glucan induced broad, dose-dependent effects on C. elegans healthspan, such as enhanced motility and improved biological-age parameters, including intestinal health.
