- Mineralate™ MicroMaxx Aqua - Chelated Trace Minerals Functionalities
- Zinc: Functions as Immune Booster. Essential in several Enzymes. It helps to fight diseases.
- Manganese: Functions as enzyme activator. Manganese is also essential for bone formation, regeneration of red blood cells, carbohydrate metabolism and the reproductive cycle.
- Copper: Boosts immunity and fighting power during disease outbreak.
- Cobalt: An active agent in the synthesis of vitamin B12. Helps in red blood cell formation.
- Iodine: Important in regulating the metabolic rate of all body functions.
- Chromium: Associated with glucose tolerance factor, important in carbohydrate metabolism
- Selenium: Protects cells from deleterious effects of peroxides. Selenium acts along with Vitamin E to function as a biological antioxydant to prot ect polyunsaturated phospholipids in cellular and subsellular membranes from peroxidative damage. Zinc functions as a cofactor in several enzymes, makes stress free.
Features & Benefits
- Animal Feed & Nutrition Features
- Benefits of Chelated Minerals in Aquaculture
- Excessive Use of Agricultural fertilizers can be costly.
- Inorganic sources settles down in bottom with the pond soil, thus reducing their availability to Shrimp and Fish.
- Soluble Chelated Minerals are readily available to Aquatic Plants and Shrimp/Fish.
- Inorganic Trace Minerals: A Hit-or-Miss Approach
- Zinc, copper, manganese, cobalt, chromium, iodine, and selenium are required by crustaceans to develop proper shell and muscle, carbohydrate digestion, lipid metabolism, breeding, reproductive performance, and enhance immunity.
- Each trace mineral needs an organic “escort” before it gets absorbed in the crustacean’s digestive tract.
- Unfortunately, many trace minerals become attached to unwanted agents and excreted as waste.
- Some dietary constituents such as calcium, phosphates, phytates, oxalates, or fiber may interfere with absorption by forming unavailable complexes with trace minerals fed in organic form.
- Benefits of Mineralate Amino Acid Chelates
Mineralate MicroMAXX uses glycine, an organic amino acid compound with the formula NH2CH2COOH having only two hydrogen atoms as its “side chain.” Glycine is the smallest of the 20 amino acids commonly found in proteins. Glycine is a colorless, sweet-tasting crystalline soild. It is unique among the proteinogenic amino acids in that it is not chiral. It can fit into hydrophilic or hydrophobic environments due to its two hydrogen atom side chain.
- Requirements for Chelates
- Small molecular size < 800 Daltons
