Zinc Supplement CAS 16039-53-5 USP/FCC Zinc Lactate
Products Description
Zinc lactate dihydrate is produced by complete neutralisation of lactic acid with a high purity zinc source and subsequent crystallisation.
Due to its antimicrobial properties and its ability to reduce or inhibit the formation of dental plaque and tartar, zinc lactate is mainly used in dental care products like toothpaste or mouthwash. As an organic mineral, it is preferred over inorganic sources because of its superior bioavailability, physiological compatibility and nearly neutral taste compared to other zinc salts.
Zinc lactate is supplied as a white to almost white fine powder. It is nearly odourless and highly soluble.
Main Features
- Source of zinc: Zinc lactate is an effective source of zinc. Zinc is an essential trace element for the human body and is involved in many physiological processes.
- Biocompatibility: Zinc lactate has good biocompatibility and is suitable for use in food and medicine.
- Antioxidant: Zinc has antioxidant properties, which helps protect cells from damage by free radicals.
