Produktinformation

• Name: Zinc picolinate
• Synonyme: Picolinic acid zinc salt
• Marke: Biosynth
• Beschreibung: Zinc picolinate is an enzyme activator that has been shown to increase the activity of superoxide dismutase, catalase, and glutathione peroxidase. It is also a potent inhibitor of lipid peroxidation and facilitates the transport of zinc across cell membranes. Zinc picolinate has minimal toxicity in vitro and in vivo. Molecular docking studies have been performed to determine its binding affinity with chromium-binding proteins. Zinc picolinate has also been shown to increase the production of growth factor-β1 by cells in culture and to inhibit the production of picolinic acid, which is toxic to cells. The coordination geometry around zinc ions can be elucidated from x-ray crystal structures and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy studies.
