Ferrous Bisglycinate Structure

Synonyms: Ferrous glycinate, Iron bisglycinate, Ferrous amino acid chelate, Iron(II) glycinate, Glycine iron salt, Ferrous diglycinate

Ferrous Bisglycinate is a chelated iron compound where each iron(II) ion is bound to two glycine molecules, forming a stable, uncharged complex. It is manufactured through a controlled reaction between ferrous salts and glycine, yielding a high-purity product that meets pharmaceutical and nutraceutical standards.

With superior bioavailability and excellent gastrointestinal tolerance, Ferrous Bisglycinate has become a preferred iron source in dietary supplements and clinical nutrition. It is widely used in iron-fortified foods and beverages, as well as in pharmaceutical formulations for iron deficiency anemia.

Product Highlights

  • High bioavailability: Chelated structure enhances iron absorption via amino acid pathways.
  • Gastrointestinal tolerance: Minimal side effects compared to ferrous sulfate.
  • Stable and inert: Does not catalyze oxidation in food matrices.
  • Regulatory compliance: Meets USP/EP/BP monographs.
  • Consistent quality: Manufactured under cGMP with full traceability.
  • Customizable particle size: Available for direct compression or suspension.

Applications

  • Dietary supplements: tablets, capsules, softgels, and gummies.
  • Clinical nutrition: enteral and parenteral formulations.
  • Food fortification: cereals, dairy, beverages, and infant formula.
  • Pharmaceuticals: iron deficiency anemia treatment.
