NOVEL CHROMIUM (III) ALPHA AMINO ACID COMPLEXES

摘要

Chromium (III) 1:3 complexes of alpha amino acids such as methionine are used as animal nutritional supplements. The chromium ion is complexed with three Methionine molecules to form the coordination complex anion [CR(met)₃⁺]. The complex is easily absorbed to provide a bioavailable source for methionine, chromium and for nutritional supplementation of animals.
