Zinc glucoheptonate
Description
Zinc glucoheptonate (CAS 12565-63-8 ) is a zinc salt of glucoheptonic acid used as a bioavailable zinc source in nutritional and agricultural applications. Its chelated structure improves zinc uptake compared to inorganic zinc salts. This makes it a preferred form for fortification and supplementation. Zinc alpha-glucoheptonate is a recognized alternative name buyers may encounter in technical specifications and regulatory filings during procurement. In food and dietary supplement manufacturing, it functions as a zinc fortification agent in functional foods, beverages, and mineral premixes. It is ideal where clean-label mineral sources are required for production. Pharmaceutical formulators use it in oral zinc supplements and effervescent tablets. Its chelated form supports consistent dosing and formulation stability across various delivery systems and medicinal applications. In agriculture and animal feed, it supplies bioavailable zinc to support crop nutrition programs. It is also used in livestock feed blends targeting mineral deficiency correction and overall animal health improvements. Personal care formulators incorporate it into skincare and haircare products. In these applications, zinc delivery and mild antioxidant stabilization are primary formulation objectives for high-quality cosmetic goods. Zinc glucoheptonate is typically supplied as a white to off-white powder. It is available in food-grade and pharmaceutical-grade specifications, with material commonly tested against FCC and USP standards. Bulk supply is standard for industrial buyers requiring large volumes for manufacturing. Smaller quantities are also available for formulation development and pilot-scale testing in laboratory environments. Contact us for supply of Zinc glucoheptonate Request Quote
