Is Saccharomyces/Swiftlet Nest Ferment Filtrate vegan?

Saccharomyces/Swiftlet Nest Ferment Filtrate is a filtrate obtained from the fermentation of edible swiftlet bird's nest by Saccharomyces yeast. As the raw material is an animal (bird) product, harvested from nests built with swiftlet saliva, it is not considered vegan or strictly vegetarian by cruelty-free standards.

An ingredient is considered vegan if it contains no animal-derived components at any point in its production.
