Molybdenum Glycinate

Molybdenum glycinate is a mineral chelate in which molybdenum is bound to the amino acid glycine, supplied by Nustras as a powder of Chinese origin and used as a source of the trace mineral molybdenum for supplements and premixes. Molybdenum is an essential trace element and a cofactor for several enzymes; the glycinate chelate gives the mineral an organic form that blends evenly at the very small quantities required.

Molybdenum glycinate is formulated into multivitamin-mineral and trace-mineral supplements in tablets, capsules and powders, into nutritional premixes for foods and beverages, and into feed premixes where permitted.

The material is a powder, standardised to specification for molybdenum content and chelate character. Molecular formula C8H20MoN4O8, molecular weight 396.22. Molybdenum is assayed by ICP and glycine by HPLC; the chelate is identified by infrared spectroscopy. Heavy-metal and microbial limits are supplied to specification and confirmed on each lot's certificate of analysis.

Nustras supplies molybdenum glycinate 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. Molybdenum is a permitted mineral source in major supplement and food markets; buyers confirm the elemental-molybdenum contribution and permitted level for their application.
