Zinc proteinate is the final product resulting from the chelation of zinc with amino acids and/or partially hydrolyzed proteins. It is used as a nutritional animal feed supplement formulated to prevent and/or correct zinc deficiency in animals.^[1] Zinc proteinate can be used in place of zinc sulfate and zinc methionine.
