Description
The CAS Registration Number for Copper Methionine Hydroxy Analogue is 292140-30-8.
Copper MHA stands for Copper Methionine Hydroxy Analogue Chelate.It is an organic molecule where a copper ion is chemically bound (chelated) to a specific molecule called 2-hydroxy-4-(methylthio)butanoic acid. This ligand serves as a substitute or “analogue” for the essential amino acid methionine.
Copper Content: Minimum 15%
MHA Content (Methionine Activity): Minimum 78%
Heavy Metals (e.g., Lead, Arsenic): Kept under strict regulatory limits (usually <10–20 ppm) to ensure safety
Standard Packaging: Generally sold in 25 kg PP bags
