A chelated form of copper originating from copper and the amino acid glycine
What are Plexomin® Chelated Minerals?
Plexomin® Zinc and Plexomin® Copper are highly bioavailable trace minerals. They are organic bis-glycinates with the metal ion bound to 2 molecules of the amino acid glycine with a very high mineral content at 29% copper and 29% Zinc.
How it works:
As amino acids are highly available, all trace elements bound by these organic building blocks show an excellent bioavailability.
The Plexomin® Zinc and Plexomin® Copper are bis-glycinates which are chelate bonds with 2 molecules of glycine and one metal ion. This forms a highly stable ring structure surrounding the metal ion protecting it against potential antagonists trying to bind with it and therefore making it more available for absorption by the animal. They can be absorbed via amino acid transporters with high delivery into the small intestine.
The products have been extensively tested globally with positive results regarding digestibility, average daily weight gain and feed conversion ratio.
