“…Aminoacid complexes of zinc can foster growth rates, increase zinc concentration in the tissues, and influence the formation of the breast muscles (Ma et al, 2024). The studies by Merzlov et al (2012) found changes in the content of zinc, cobalt, and cuprum in meat of broiler chickens that had been consuming mixed feeds enriched with immobilized enzymes, iodine, and mixed ligand complex of cobalt.…”

Poultry farming plays an important role as a producer of high-quality animal protein, which can solve issues of protein deficit among the population. Genetic growth potential of broiler chickens can be maximized through regular supply of microelements, especially chelate aminoacids. Those compounds improve metabolic processes in the body and increase increments in live mass and slaughter-yield of meat. The main objective of the study was identifying effects of mineral supplements with chelate microminerals on meat productivity of broiler chickens, quality of breast and thigh muscles, and content of mineral compounds in meat and liver. The studies were carried out on Kobb-500 broiler chickens, divided into three groups, each comprising 25 individuals. The experiment lasted from day 1 to day 42 of raising poultry. Broilers of the control group received the basic diet balanced in nutrients; the diet of birds of the second group was supplemented with Kronotsyd-L with chelates of copper, iron, zinc, and manganese in calculation of 0.25 mL/L of water, and chickens of the third consumed a diet with copper glycinate in calculation of 0.30 mL/L of water. Subject to mineral supplements with chelate microelements, the chickens had the highest mean-daily increments of live mass, slaughter yield, and yield of breast muscles. Use of mineral supplements in the diet of broiler chickens affected the quality of their meat, in particular its chemical composition. Those supplements led to changes in mineral composition of meat, influencing the concentrations of individual minerals in the tissues of the birds. Since minerals are important components of protein metabolism, the supplements augmented the content of dry matter and protein in meat. In the broiler chickens that had been receiving copper glycinate, the breast muscles had statistically significant increases in the mass shares of dry matter and protein. We found decrease in the content of fat in the breast and thigh muscles and the liver subject to copper glycinate and Kronotsyd-L with chelates of copper, iron, zinc, and manganese. This indicates improvement of the quality of meat and the liver. Use of mineral supplements with chelated microelements increased the ash content in dry matter because of higher concentrations of phosphorus, calcium, magnesium, iron, and manganese.

“…186 Liu et al studied the effects of Zn supplementation sources and Zn levels on broiler quality, and they suggested that Zn supplementation increased mammary muscle b* (b tands for yellowness, which is a physical indicator of meat color) and thigh muscle 24 h pH, decreased thigh muscle shear, and breast and thigh muscle drip loss, independent of Zn source; these results are consistent with studies conducted on Pekin ducks and pigs, in which zinc supplementation improved growth performance and meat yield. [187][188][189] Zinc supplements can shorten the reproductive performance of animals. Zinc plays an important role in reconstituting the ovarian follicle as a source of P2 through the involvement of MMP-4, a member of the zinc endopeptidase family.…”

Zinc, a crucial trace element is vital for the growth and development of humans. It is frequently described as ‘the flower of life’ and ‘the source of intelligence’. Zinc supplements play a pivotal role in addressing zinc deficiency by serving as a vital source of this essential micronutrients, effectively replenishing depleted zinc levels in the body. In this paper, we first described the biological behavior of zinc in the human body and briefly described the physiological phenomena associated with zinc levels. The benefits and drawbacks of various zinc supplement forms are then discussed, with emphasis on the most recent zinc supplement formulations. Finally, the application of zinc supplements in food, medicine, and animal husbandry is further summarized. © 2024 Society of Chemical Industry.

Livestock and poultry diseases occurring due to mineral or vitamin deficiencies are widely reported and belong to the factors restraining the development of livestock industry. Almost until the 90s of the last century, the conditions associated with trace element deficiency were prevented and treated using inorganic compounds. In recent decades, scientists have synthesized chelate metal compounds using organic carriers, determining the high bioavailability of these compounds and the efficiency that repeatedly exceeds the efficiency of inorganic compounds. Amino acids are preferably used as organic carriers. In addition to their main function, i.e. replenishing the trace element deficiency, chelate compounds increase the enzymatic activity, the functional activity of the immune system, and are also able to enhance the absorption of other trace elements, showing a synergistic effect. Due to the immunostimulatory activity resulting from increase in the content of sialic acids, properdin, ceruloplasmin, gamma globulin protein fraction, the metal chelates (copper, cobalt, iodine) can be used as immune response modulators. Iron chelate compounds are used for therapy and prevention of iron deficiency anemias not only in veterinary, but also in human medicine. This paper is based on data analysis of Scopus, CyberLeninka, PubMed, RSCI and other databases and systematizes scientific knowledge on the problem of designing and synthesizing metal chelate compounds using organic carriers. The scientific rationale is given for the use of amino acids and organic acids as organic carriers of metal, vitamin and other compounds. The mechanism of biological action of chelate compounds and the pathogenesis of trace element deficiencies in animals are considered, while the advantages of chelate compound use in microelementoses therapy and prevention are specified.
