Zinc lactate
Zyntex provides premium Zinc Lactate, an organic mineral salt offering superior bioavailability and a neutral taste profile. It is a critical ingredient for anti-plaque oral care products and high-performance nutritional supplements.
Description
Comprehensive Product Overview
In the global ingredients market, Zinc Lactate is highly valued for its multi-functional properties in both hygiene and nutrition. First, in oral care, it functions as a powerful anti-microbial agent that specifically targets the bacteria responsible for dental plaque and tartar. By releasing zinc ions, it neutralizes volatile sulfur compounds (VSCs), effectively eliminating halitosis (bad breath) at the source rather than merely masking it. Zyntex provides Zinc Lactate as a white crystalline powder with excellent water solubility, ensuring it integrates seamlessly into mouthwashes, toothpastes, and dental gels.

Zyntex also supplies Zinc Lactate to the nutraceutical and functional food industries. Zinc is a vital trace element involved in over 300 enzymatic reactions, including protein synthesis, immune function, and wound healing. Because Zinc Lactate is an organic mineral, it is absorbed more efficiently by the human body, reducing the gastrointestinal irritation often associated with inorganic zinc salts. In addition, its stability under various processing conditions makes it an ideal candidate for fortifying beverages, infant formulas, and health supplements. Moreover, its antioxidant properties help protect cells from oxidative stress. Consequently, our product enables manufacturers to create high-efficacy health products that support overall immunity and metabolic health. Finally, our strict adherence to purity standards ensures that our Zinc Lactate meets the rigorous safety requirements of the global food and drug sectors.
