Description

Zinc Bis(N6-Lauroyl-L-Lysinate) is a specialized organometallic complex derived from the amino acid L-lysine and lauric acid, chelated with zinc. This compound is valued for its enhanced bioavailability and stability, offering a superior source of zinc for applications requiring controlled release and improved compatibility. It is primarily utilized by manufacturers in the nutraceutical, cosmetic, and functional food industries seeking advanced mineral delivery systems.

Application

• Dietary Supplements: As a bioavailable zinc source in capsules, tablets, and powdered multivitamin/mineral formulations.
• Functional Food & Beverage Fortification: For enriching products like nutritional bars, shakes, and dairy alternatives with a stable, non-metallic tasting zinc.
• Cosmetic & Personal Care: Used in skincare products (creams, lotions, serums) for its potential skin-conditioning and anti-inflammatory properties.
• Pharmaceutical Excipients: As a stabilizing or delivery agent in certain topical and oral medicinal preparations.
• Animal Nutrition (Feed Premixes): Incorporated into premium pet food and livestock feed to support immune function and overall health.
• Research & Development: Serves as a reference standard or intermediate in biochemical and pharmaceutical research.
