Copper bisglycinate powder [29% Cu]
Copper bisglycinate is produced by chemical reaction between glycine and copper carbonate, it consists of a bivalent copper ion linked to two molecules of glycine. The copper metal is bound to the carboxyl group and to the α-amino group of glycine with coordinate covalent bonds. This 1:2 metal to ligand ratio restricts reaction with dietary inhibitors of the metal absorption and prevents the metal from participating in oxidation reactions. This is a blue coloured fine crystalline powder.
