  • Amino acid chelates to reduce still births and increase birth weight in non-human animals
    Patent number: 6197815
    Abstract: Metal amino acid chelates for animals are beneficial for facilitating and promoting growth by increasing desired metallic ion uptake. The present invention is directed to a process for providing an animal fed additive by preparing metal amino acid chelates, and the metal amino acid chelate growth facilitator, promoter and enhancer prepared by the process.

  • Metal amino acid chelate
    Patent number: 5504055
    Abstract: A water soluble metal amino acid chelate is prepared by adding a metal salt to deaerated water, mixing the salt solution with a mixture of an amino acid and an organic acid and adjusting the pH of the resulting composition to a range of from about 4.5 to about 8.5 to produce a clear solution. The resultant clear solution can then be applied to plants or it can be dried for storage. The water soluble metal amino acid chelate produced by the process, when applied to plants, results in increased metals assimilation and improved plant growth.
