Boron Chelate (Rice-Based)

Boron chelate (rice-based) is a mineral chelate in which boron is bound to a hydrolysed rice protein and rice-derived organic matrix, giving an organic, plant-based boron source rather than an inorganic borate. Nustras supplies it as a fine powder, a mineral ingredient for the supplement sector.

Boron chelate (rice-based) is formulated into trace-mineral and multimineral supplements in capsule, tablet and powder form, into bone-category mineral blends and premixes, and into functional foods and beverages where a non-borate boron source is wanted.

The material is an off-white to light tan fine powder with a mild characteristic taste. Boron content, loss on drying, particle size are standardised to specification and boron is determined by ICP; identity is confirmed by the boron assay, and heavy-metal and microbial limits are supplied to specification and confirmed on each lot's certificate of analysis.

Nustras supplies boron chelate (rice-based) in bulk commercial quantities, in sealed food-grade bags and fibre drums, to manufacturers and formulators internationally, with a certificate of analysis, specification sheet and country-of-origin documentation on every lot. Boron is a permitted trace-mineral ingredient in supplements in several major markets, with maximum levels that differ by jurisdiction; buyers confirm the elemental-boron contribution and permitted level for their application.
