Abstract
The invention relates to OTM of amino acid and minerals, the unique structure of rendering them useful in human and animal feed so as to improve in vivo bioavailability and assimilation of mineral sources.
Claims15
Organometallic complex of L-lysine or a derivative thereof with a mineral, wherein the L-lysine or the derivative thereof and the mineral are in a molar ratio of less than 1:1.
Human or non-human animal feed comprising the organometallic complex of claim 1 or the feed supplement of claim 8 in human or non-human animal feed.
Method for improving in vivo bioavailability and assimilation of mineral sources in a food composition, which comprises feeding an human or non-human animal with a food composition comprising L-lysine or a derivative thereof in an organometallic complex with minerals wherein the L-lysine and the mineral atom are in a molar ratio of less than 1:1.
