Cobalt Amino Acid Chelate Small Peptide Chelated Cobalt
Technical principle
Dual-channel cascade absorption mechanism:
- Fast channel (PepT1): The small peptide chelated cobalt (proportion >40%) in the product is preferentially recognized by the intestinal PepT1 carrier, and enabling rapid and intact absorption via the PepT1 transporter, with a lower risk of saturation.
- Conventional channel (AA Transporters): The amino acid chelated cobalt in the product can realize complementary absorption by amino acid transporters, maximizing absorption coverage.
Product Features
1.Multidimensional chelation with higher stability
Chemical bonds of different strengths are formed by leveraging the long-range steric- hindrance effect of small peptides and the tight binding ability of amino acids. The special structure combining long and short chains makes the product better adapt to feed processing, gastric acid environment, and different intestinal segments, finally ensuring that cobalt ions accurately reach the absorption site.
2.Staggered absorption with higher utilization efficiency
The small peptide chelation is absorbed at the front end of the intestine quickly while the amino acid chelation is continuously absorbed at the middle and back ends. Such "cascade absorption" mode further improves the absorption efficiency of cobalt element, making it very suitable for aquatic animals with short digestive tracts, and high-yielding cows with large feed intake.
3.Precise precursor supply for Vitamin B₁₂
It supplies cobalt in a more stable, predictable and effective manner, thus ensuring the synthesis of vitamin B₁₂ and energy metabolism in ruminants continuously.
4.Low addition, low emission
It can reduce the amount of additives and fecal cobalt emissions under the same effect, which complies with the trend of green aquaculture and precision nutrition.
