SCHAUMANN introduces organically bound trace elements - Aminotrace

Aminotrace, the organically bound trace elements developed by SCHAUMANN, feature high solubility, optimal concentrations of trace elements, stable complexes and improved biological availability.

Trace elements are important in the metabolism, reproduction, immune system, growth, development, and the regeneration of various tissues. For this reason, it is important to supplement them through the feedstuffs. These include zinc, copper, manganese, selenium, cobalt, iron and iodine.

With Aminotrace, the animals are supplied according to their requirements for any feeding situation. With 25-50% less added quantity, it provides a balanced supply and enables reliable performance in sow and piglet feeding, finisher feeding and dairy cattle feeding.

In addition, the highly effective copper, zinc, manganese and iron bisglycinate chelate hydrates are protected from interactions with other trace elements in the digestive tract, and thus provide better biological availability.

Aminotrace is developed by SCHAUMANN in collaboration with the Technical University of Clausthal and is used within the framework of the SCHAUMANN cattle and pig programme.
