Biomin Molybdenum is a glycine chelated mineral. they are a subset of amino acid chelates. Glycine is the smallest amino acid and it is often used as a chelating agent. Because of its small size, glycine passes through stomates and also through the cell membrane effectively and more easily thean other larger molecules, thus enhancing plant uptake and making it more bio-available to the plant. Comparatively, other chelates cannot pass through cell membranes as the Biomin products do, due to their large molecular size, only passing through large pores when thestomates are open. Biomin products therefore, have the advantage of being more highly available
Molybdenum (Mo)
- Is a co-factor in the enzyme Nitrate-reductose
- Aids in theconversion of Nitrates of Ammonium (the initial stage of synthesis of proteins)
- Essential for Rhyzobia to enable legume crops to fix aerobic (atmospheric) Nitrogen
- Helps plants to utilise Nitrate Nitrogen
- Involved in Phosphate and Iron metabolism
