Description

Copper Aspartate is a biologically relevant, chelated form of copper where the copper ion is bound to the amino acid L-aspartic acid. This compound is valued for its enhanced bioavailability and stability compared to inorganic copper salts, making it a preferred source of copper in applications where absorption and gentle handling are critical. It serves as a vital functional ingredient for manufacturers in the nutraceutical, animal nutrition, and pharmaceutical intermediates sectors.

Application

• Dietary Supplements & Nutraceuticals: Used as a bioavailable source of copper in mineral supplements, multivitamin formulations, and functional foods.
• Animal Feed Premixes: Incorporated into feed for livestock, poultry, and aquaculture to support essential metabolic functions and overall health.
• Pharmaceutical Intermediates: Serves as a starting material or catalyst in the synthesis of more complex active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs).
• Cosmetic & Personal Care: Utilized in trace amounts in skincare formulations for its potential antioxidant and enzymatic cofactor properties.
• Biochemical Research: Employed in laboratory settings as a reagent or standard in enzymatic studies and trace metal analysis.
• Food Fortification: Acts as a nutritional fortificant in specialized dietary products requiring highly bioavailable mineral sources.
