Article Synopsis
- ATR-FTIR spectroscopy is a key method for analyzing mineral chelation in proteinates used as animal feed additives, especially as regulations become stricter.
- The study developed calibration models with high accuracy (R > 0.99) for measuring manganese and zinc proteinates at 20% concentrations.
- The refined methodology demonstrated excellent reliability, specificity, and reproducibility, making it valuable for regulatory compliance and the feed industry in determining mineral chelation levels.
