Zinc Glycinate

Product Properties
White crystalline powder, slightly soluble in water.
Product Features
- A new type of zinc supplement, zinc glycinate is a chelate with cyclic structure formed by zinc and glycine. The significant difference from traditional inorganic zinc acid and organic zinc acid is that zinc ion is located in the center of the five-membered ring chelate and does not exist in the form of free zinc ions, which reduces the antagonism between elements and thus improves the utilization of zinc.
- Among many amino acids, glycine is the amino acid with the smallest molecular weight, and the chelate formed by its reaction with zinc also has the smallest molecular weight, which can be better absorbed and utilized by the human body. It can play the dual role of supplementing zinc and glycine.
- The zinc glycinate produced by Donghua Jinlong has high purity, no anion interference and no organic solvent residue. It has the advantages of easy absorption, high bioavailability and good stability.
Usage
- Widely used in food, medicine, health care products and other industries.
- It can be directly used to fortify zinc nutrition in dairy products, cereals, beverages and other foods.
- It can be made into granules, tablets, capsules, oral liquid and other health care products.
