Organic zinc has high biological potency

Organic zinc is not easily combined with other substances to form insoluble compounds or is adsorbed on insoluble colloids. Then it has good chemical stability.
Organic zinc is not only the main form of metal ions absorbed by the body, but also an intermediate substance for protein synthesis in animals. Organic zinc is absorbed quickly, consumes less energy in the body, and has fewer biochemical processes. Organic zinc has high biological potency. Organozinc reagent is one of the earlier discovered organometallic reagents. Its reactivity is relatively low, so it has good functional group compatibility and relatively High chemical, regional and stereoselectivity, etc. Organozinc reagents can react with a variety of electrophiles, and can also undergo metal exchange reactions with more transition metal salts or cooperate to obtain highly active organic transition metal reagents.

The method of zinc supplementation can be to add inorganic zinc or organic zinc to the feed. Inorganic zinc mainly includes zinc sulfate, zinc oxide, zinc carbonate, etc. Organic zinc refers to the complex or chelate formed by organic ligands, such as glucose. Zinc acid, zinc methionine, etc. Different forms of zinc have different utilization rates in the body. Generally speaking, the biological potency of inorganic zinc is lower than organic zinc, and organic zinc is lower than amino acid chelated zinc. Organic zinc refers to the complex (such as zinc glucate) or chelate (such as zinc methionine) formed by zinc and organic ligands. Amino acid zinc chelates have become the main development trend of trace element zinc additives today.
Inorganic zinc refers to zinc compounds that do not contain hydrocarbon elements (generally referring to containing alkyl groups), such as zinc oxide, zinc chloride, zinc nitrate, etc., which are all inorganic zinc. The molecular formula of organic zinc must contain hydrocarbons, such as zinc isooctanoate, zinc naphthenate, dimethyl zinc, laurel dibutyl zinc, etc., which belong to the organic zinc category. From the physical appearance, most of the inorganic zinc is white solid crystal, while part of the organic zinc is liquid and part is solid. Inorganic zinc mostly uses its physical properties as fillers, and organic zinc is used as a catalytic phase for proton transfer to accelerate chemical reactions and in some medical fields.
Organic zinc refers to the complex (such as zinc gluconate) or chelate (such as zinc methionine) formed by zinc and organic ligands. Amino acid zinc chelates have become the main development trend of trace element zinc additives today. Organic zinc plays a major role in rubber, plant feed, feed, and livestock production.
