Iron Amino Acid Chelate

Iron amino acid chelate is a mineral chelate in which iron is bound to amino acids, most commonly glycine, giving an organically chelated source of the trace element iron. Nustras supplies it as a powder, a micronised grade and a direct-compression granular grade, made by our represented factory, for mineral supplement, fortification and premix manufacturing.

Iron amino acid chelate is formulated into iron and multimineral tablets, capsules and chewables, prenatal and multivitamin-mineral premixes, fortified flour, cereal and dairy products, and feed premixes.

The material is a powder standardised to specification for iron content, with identity confirmed by infrared spectroscopy or an equivalent method and iron assay by titration or ICP; the amino-acid ligand and chelate ratio are declared on the specification sheet. Heavy-metal and microbial limits are supplied to specification and confirmed on each lot's certificate of analysis.

Nustras supplies iron amino acid chelate in bulk commercial quantities, in 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. Iron amino-acid chelates are accepted iron sources in major supplement and food markets; buyers confirm the elemental-iron contribution, listing and permitted level for their application.
