Precautions

NEW ZEALAND

Do not use at the same time as any other Selenised fertiliser, prill or product and do not exceed the stated dose or frequency without consulting a veterinarian or nutritionist. 

In sheep, liver levels of copper may be quite variable and consequently there is always as risk of copper poisoning occurring following supplementation in this species.

Features

OganoTrace-G trace minerals are chelated to the amino acids glycine and are water soluble 

 

OganoTrace-P Infant-6 is designed for liquid feeds where the bioavailability of trace minerals is critical for rapidly growing infant animals.

 

Trace minerals are chemically bound to a chelating agent or ligand, usually a mixture of amino acids or small peptides. This makes them more bioavailable and bioactive and provides the animal with a metabolic advantage that often results in an improved performance. They can therefore be included at much lower levels without compromising performance, thus minimizing nutrient excretion and environmental impact.

It is well known that trace minerals (Co, Cu, Fe, I, Mn, Mo, Se, and Zn, among others) are required for the normal functioning of basically all biochemical processes in the body. They are part of numerous enzymes and coordinate a great number of biological processes, and consequently they are essential to maintain animal health and productivity. Optimal nutrition, with adequate trace mineral levels, guarantees proper functions of the organism, among which the most important are structural, physiological, catalytic, and regulatory.

Trace minerals have very specific but often roles as outlined in the table below.

 

MINERAL TRACE MINERAL FUNCTION 
Zinc (Zn)
  • General growth and metabolism
  • Normal bone and cartilage development 
  • Maintaining integrity of skin and mucous membranes, hair and hooves
  • Maintaining a normal healthy coat
  • Wound healing
Manganese (Mn)
  • General metabolism
  • Development of bone, cartilage and connective tissue
  • Normal blood clotting 
  • Maintaining normal growth and reproduction
Iron (Fe)
  • Maintaining normal metabolism
  • Component of haemoglobin in red blood cells
Copper (Cu)
  • Iron metabolism
  • Bone development
  • Maintenance of elastic connective tissue
Cobalt (Co)
  • Involved in the formation of vitamin B12 and subsequent formation of red blood cells and haemoglobin
  • Maintaining normal nerve cell function 
Selenium (Se)
  • Preventing cellular oxidation
  • Necessary for normal growth and fertility

Deficiencies It is difficult to realize the impact of insufficient trace minerals, as symptoms of deficiency or mineral unbalances may not always be evident. However, a slight deficiency of trace minerals can cause a considerable reduction in performance and production. (López-Alonso, Vet Science 2012)
