Phosphorus Amino Acid Chelate

Phosphorus amino acid chelate is a mineral ingredient in which phosphorus, in its phosphate form, is complexed with amino acids such as glycine to give an organic-form phosphorus source. Nustras supplies it as a powder for mineral supplements, premixes and feed. Phosphorus is an essential macro-mineral and a constituent of bone mineral, nucleic acids and phospholipids.

It is formulated into mineral and multi-mineral supplements in tablet, capsule and powder form, into premixes and fortified nutritional powders, and into animal feed and pet food where an organic-form phosphorus source is specified.

The material is a white to off-white powder with a mild odour. Elemental phosphorus content, amino-acid content, loss on drying and pH are standardised to specification; phosphorus is assayed by a spectrophotometric (molybdovanadate) method or ICP, identity by infrared spectroscopy, and heavy-metal and microbial limits are supplied to specification and confirmed on each lot's certificate of analysis.

Nustras supplies phosphorus 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. Phosphorus amino-acid complexes are marketed as mineral sources in major supplement and feed markets; buyers confirm the elemental-phosphorus contribution, permitted form and level for their application.
