Organic Chromium

organic chromium for animals

Chromium (cr) is essential to normal carbohydrate, lipid and protein metabolism for animals. Chromium is biologically active as part of an oligopeptide – chromodulin – potentiating the effect of insulin by facilitating insulin binding to receptors at the cell surface. With chromium acting as a cofactor of insulin, Cr activity in the organism is parallel to insulin functions.

Cr absorption is low, ranging between 0.4 and 2.0% for inorganic compounds while the availability of organic Cr is more than 10 times higher. Chromium Picolinate has been widely used as chromium source to animals, but we have introduced another form of Organic Chromium for animals into the market.

We now have good ability to make Organic Chromium for animals/Chelated Chromium in the form of Chromium Methionine.

Chromium Methionine Chelate is the third generation of trace mineral feed additives. It is manufactured with one metal ion bound to three methionine molecules which form ring compound with proper structure. This organic ring compound is very stable when passing the pre-intestinal volatile environment which allows the organic chromium to reach the target organs and tissues to maximize the utilization of trace minerals.

According to the AAFCO definition of Organic Trace Minerals, there are different types and names on the market. If you are looking for any of the following products, please feel free to contact us. We are open to make product on to-order basis:

Chromium Methionine, Chromium Methionine Chelate, Chromium Methionine Complex, Chromium Glycinate, Chromium Glycine Chelate, Chromium Glycine Complex, Organic Chromium for animals, etc.
