MINTREX® chelated trace minerals combine HMTBa (hydroxy analog of methionine) with an essential trace mineral in a two-to-one chelated molecule. This protects the mineral from antagonists, allowing it to be more efficiently absorbed once reaching the small intestine. In all animal species, the result is improved stability of the molecule, higher bioavailability and optimized trace mineral supply and a residual methionine effect that can reduce the required methionine supplementation of the feed. When using MINTREX, levels of minerals in the diets can be reduced, while still achieving more in term of animal performance. As a result, mineral excretion in the environment is reduced. So the increased bioavailability of minerals in MINTREX makes animal production more sustainable.
