Zinc DL-Aspartate

Zinc DL-aspartate is a mineral amino-acid chelate in which zinc is bound to DL-aspartic acid, supplied by Nustras as a white powder, in standard and micronised grades, and used as a source of the trace mineral zinc for supplements and premixes. Zinc is an essential trace element and a cofactor for a large number of enzymes.

It is formulated into zinc and multimineral supplements in tablet, capsule and powder form, mineral-amino-acid premixes, sports-nutrition products and fortified foods. The micronised grade is intended for applications that require a fine particle size, such as suspensions and homogeneous dry blends.

The material is a white, odourless powder; CAS number 15281-32-0, molecular formula C8H12N2O8Zn, molecular weight 329.6. Zinc content is confirmed by complexometric titration or atomic absorption spectroscopy, identity by infrared spectroscopy, and the material is standardised to specification. Heavy-metal and microbial limits are supplied to specification and confirmed on each lot's certificate of analysis.

Nustras supplies zinc DL-aspartate in bulk commercial quantities, in food-grade bags and sealed packaging, to manufacturers and formulators internationally, with a certificate of analysis, specification sheet and country-of-origin documentation on every lot. Zinc aspartate is an accepted mineral source in major supplement markets; buyers confirm the elemental-zinc contribution, grade and permitted level for their application.
