CHELATED MINERALS

UNO Vetchem is a leading manufacturer of Glycine-based (Glycinates) and Methonine-based (Methionates) Chelated Minerals - organic compounds that effectively supplement deficiency of trace elements, ensuring the development and improvement of animal health.

Trace minerals are essential for daily biological functions of all livestock and poultry. However, it is common for inorganic minerals to not be absorbed at the level and speed required by animals for daily biological functions which leads to mineral deficiencies. Additionally, essential minerals are destroyed during digestion due to interactions with other components of feed which further contributes to the deficiencies. Chelated Minerals are extremely beneficial in trace mineral supplementation and to protect trace minerals during digestion.

Chelated Minerals consist of metal atoms which link and bond with amino acids. This distinctive complex uses the organic part of the compound to protect the inorganic mineral from antagonists in early digestive stages. The amino-acid in the Chelate significantly improves the bioavailability of the mineral which speeds and facilitates the absorption of micronutrients to support metabolic functions. Additionally, Chelated Minerals reduce the degenerative effect of trace minerals on vitamins in premixes and feed.

As Chelated minerals are bound to organic compounds, (such as Glycine or Methionine) their price is slightly higher than inorganic minerals. However, inorganic minerals, even at high doses, are not absorbed at the adequate concentrations, whereas, chelated minerals allow for better absorption and overall utilization. This is where chelated minerals provide the maximal benefit while being cost effective.

Glycine-based Chelated Minerals (Glycinates)

UNO Vetchem uses modern proprietary technology to manufacture a wide-range of Glycinates. Our range of Glycinates are completely chelated and highly effective. The high bioavailability of UNO Vetchem’s Glycinates makes it possible to reduce the dose of the microelement while also improving production results.

UNO Vetchem with every batch provides a Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectra. A FTIR spectra is the only method for qualitative identification of metal chelates and quantitative determinants of the extent of Chelation.

Methionine-based Chelated Minerals

UNO Vetchem uses modern proprietary technology to manufacture a wide-range of Methionine-based Chelated Minerals. Our range of Metho-Chelates have excellent mixability and are stable over a broad pH range which provide the animal with not just the mineral but also methionine – an important nutrient for animals.

Methionine plays an essential role in ruminant diet. The amino acid supports several metabolic processes and muscle protein synthesis. Methionine serves as a constituent of body protein and is involved in the development of the digestive tract and growth performance. Furthermore, it aids in increasing muscle mass and impacts the animal’s overall immunity. Methionine is usually the first limiting amino acid. If methionine is missing, the animal is unable to utilize any other amino acids for protein synthesis. UNO Vetchem’s Metho-Chelates ensure highest bioavailability of the mineral along supplementing the animal’s methionine needs.
