Abstract
A process for preparation of stable, liquid solutions of complexes of trace elements and amino acid complexes of L-lysine, glycine, leucine, and serine. The resulting complexes are used to supplement domestic animals nutritionally. Since the solutions are stable, they can be used as a top drench or in drinking water.
Claims8
A process of preparing a trace mineral, stable aqueous solution complex, comprising:
- dissolving a trace mineral salt in water that is below 50° C.;
- adding a 1:1 complex forming sufficient amount of an amino acid selecting from the group consisting of L-lysine, glycine, leucine and serine to the trace mineral salt in water;
- and
- adjusting the pH to within the range of 2.0 to 6.0 to provide a solution that is stable in storage up to at least 18 months.
