What is Chelated Magnesium Amino Acid CAS 14783-68-7?

Chelated Magnesium Amino Acid CAS 14783-68-7 is a magnesium-glycine chelate in which magnesium is coordinated to amino-acid ligands. It is supplied as a light-yellow to off-white fine powder and is used in animal feed, mineral supplements and agricultural crop nutrition.

Why is this product called a chelate instead of a simple magnesium salt?

The amino-acid ligands surround the magnesium ion and reduce unwanted reactions with phosphates, sulfates or other components in feed and spray solutions. That coordination supports more stable and efficient delivery through biological membranes than many inorganic magnesium salts.

What are the main animal-feed applications?

In livestock, poultry and aquaculture nutrition it is used in premixes and supplements to support nerve and muscle function, reduce magnesium-deficiency stress, improve eggshell quality and provide a bioavailable magnesium source.

How is it used in agriculture and crop nutrition?

Because it is completely water-soluble, it can be used in foliar sprays, drip irrigation and fertigation to correct interveinal chlorosis or magnesium deficiency. A common foliar dilution is about 1:1000-1200, but the actual rate should be adjusted to crop, stage and local agronomic advice.

What key specifications should be confirmed before ordering?

Confirm the magnesium content of at least 10.0%, total amino-acid content of about 25.0-30.0%, water solubility, moisture, pH of a 1% solution, heavy metals, arsenic and particle size. Also state whether the product is needed for feed or fertilizer use so the grade can be matched.

What is the solubility and pH range of this powder?

The powder is described as 100% water-soluble. A 1% solution typically has a pH range of 4.0-7.0, making it suitable for liquid feed supplements, foliar application and fertigation systems when compatible with the rest of the formulation.

What packaging, storage and shelf life apply to this product?

It is supplied in 20 kg or 25 kg kraft paper bags or woven bags with an inner liner, with customization available. Keep bags tightly sealed in a cool, dry, well-ventilated warehouse because the powder is hygroscopic; typical shelf life is 24 months in the original unopened packaging.

Chelated Magnesium Amino Acid CAS 14783-68-7

Chelated Magnesium Amino Acid (CAS 14783-68-7) is an organic mineral complex utilized as a highly bioavailable nutrient source in animal feed additives and dietary supplements. Chemically recognized as a Magnesium proteinate or amino acid complex, this powder functions to deliver stable magnesium ions across biological membranes without the digestive interference common to inorganic salts. As a specialized Organometallic chelate, it is integrated into livestock nutrition and functional food formulations to support metabolic enzyme activity and muscle function. We ensure bulk supply capabilities for this material, providing access to competitive factory pricing and customized specifications to meet specific metal content requirements. Full technical documentation, including MSDS, TDS, COA, is available to support compliance and safety protocols.

Product Description

Chelated Magnesium Amino Acid appears as a light yellow to white powder. It is produced by reacting soluble magnesium salts with hydrolyzed amino acids derived from non-GMO plant sources (such as soy or corn). This process creates a stable heterocyclic structure where the magnesium is “clawed” by the amino acids.

Key features include:

High Stability: The amino acid shell protects magnesium from antagonistic interactions with phosphates or sulfates in the soil or digestive tract.
Rapid Absorption: Plants and animals absorb amino acids actively; the magnesium “hitchhikes” into the cell, resulting in absorption rates significantly higher than Magnesium Sulfate or Magnesium Oxide.
Photosynthesis Booster: Magnesium is the central atom of the chlorophyll molecule. Our product effectively cures “Yellow Leaf Disease” caused by Mg deficiency.
Full Solubility: 100% water-soluble, making it ideal for foliar sprays, drip irrigation, and liquid feed supplements.
