Product Information

• Name: Zinc glycinate
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: Zinc glycinate is a form of zinc that is well-absorbed in the gut and has low toxicity. It is used to treat metabolic disorders such as fatty acid oxidation, ethylene diamine oxidation, and antimicrobial peptide synthesis. Zinc glycinate also inhibits the activity of enzymes involved in reactions involving acid complex, nutrient solution, drug interactions, and tissue antigens. Zinc glycinate binds to picolinic acid (a metabolite of tryptophan) and inhibits mitochondrial membrane potential. Structural analysis shows that zinc glycinate has a molecular weight of 196.2 g/mol and an empirical formula of C9H12N2O6Zn.
