IntelliBond Trace Minerals: Physical Properties
IntelliBond C and IntelliBond CII Key Messages
IntelliBond copper has superior handling characteristics or properties when compared to Foreign Basic Copper Chloride (FBCC). FBCC is consistently high in dioxin-like PCBs due to the nature of the raw materials used to manufacture BCC in foreign countries. IntelliBond C & IntelliBond CII is manufactured in the United States under a strict quality control program that is routinely audited by third-parties.
IntelliBond Z Key Messages
IntelliBond zinc has superior handling characteristics or properties when compared to Foreign Basic Zinc Chloride (FBZC). When compared in the TEAC test, FBZC was more soluble and dissociated faster in water than IntellBond Z, allowing for more free Zn to be present in the FBZC solution. IntelliBond Z is manufactured in the United States under a strict quality control program that is routinely audited by third-parties.
IntelliBond M Key Messages
Foreign Manganese Hydroxychloride has remarkably different physical characteristics than IntelliBond M when placed in water. IntelliBond M is manufactured in the United States under a strict quality control program that is routinely audited by third-parties.

IntelliBond® Trace Minerals Series: Part #4 – PALATABILITY
Trace Minerals and Preferential Intake. Weak ionic bond from sulfates causes dissociation of metal when exposed to moisture (saliva). Animals have evolutionarily developed an aversion to metallic tasting compounds due to their indication of plant toxicity. These free metal ions activate T2R bitter-sensing receptors.

IntelliBond® Trace Minerals Series: Part #3 – STABILITY
Trace Minerals and Nutrient/Additive Stability. Weak ionic bonds from copper sulfate and zinc sulfate cause solubility and dissociation of free metal ions when exposed to moisture. Soluble minerals can leach out of feed when exposed to precipitation. Mineral premixes that contain water soluble sources of trace minerals are more hygroscopic (absorb water).

IntelliBond® Trace Minerals Series: Part #2 – SOLUBILITY
IntelliBond has low solubility at a higher pH, which avoids negative interactions in the rumen. IntelliBond is more soluble in a low pH environment (such as the abomasum) and allows for a slower, more stable release throughout the gastrointestinal tract.
