Copper glycinate / Copper bisglycinate

Main uses:

Food nutrition fortifier, used as a source of copper supplementation. Copper is an essential trace mineral for the human body, involved in the synthesis and activation of various enzymes. It plays an important role in maintaining normal immune system function, promoting iron metabolism and hemoglobin synthesis, maintaining connective tissue health, and antioxidant defense. Glycine copper is an amino acid chelate formed by the coordination bond between copper ions and glycine. It has good water solubility and biocompatibility, high absorption rate, and no irritation to the gastrointestinal tract, making it an ideal copper supplement. GB 14880 stipulates that it is a food nutrition enhancer that is allowed to be used, suitable for dairy products (such as yogurt, cheese), beverages (such as juice, plant protein drinks), baked goods (such as bread, biscuits), etc. The addition amount is 0.001% to 0.01% of the total food mass (calculated as copper element, and must comply with food safety standards).

Feed additive, used to supplement the trace element copper required by animals. Glycine copper is an organic chelating copper, which has advantages such as high bioavailability, good stability, and good palatability compared to inorganic copper sources. Helps promote hemoglobin synthesis and red blood cell maturation, maintain normal iron metabolism, and prevent copper deficiency anemia in animals; Promote piglet growth, increase daily weight gain, and reduce feed to meat ratio; Improve the redness of pig skin, enhance meat color and texture, and reduce water loss; Improve the survival rate of piglets in sow litters and reduce weight loss; Improve the egg laying performance and eggshell quality of laying hens. The European Commission issued Regulation (EU) 2018/1039 on July 23, 2018, approving the use of solid and liquid glycine copper chelates as feed additives for all animal species.
