Fe glukonat

[hasan66]

Friends, I see 2 types of iron gluconate on the market: c12h22feo14, and the one I have is c12h24feo14. What is the diffrence? I see a sign on it that says edible. Is 12.46% of it iron?

Hi all,
It doesn't matter, in practice they are the same.

If we assume that the gluconate containing "H24" and "H22" are different compounds (and I'm guessing that they aren't) the difference is absolutely minimal because hydrogen (H) has a RAM = 1 and you are 2 different (24 - 22).

This would be the formula for ferrous (iron II) gluconate: Fe C12 H22 O14

If you add up all the other RAMs to get the RMM, e.g. Fe ~ 56, C = 12, O = 16 etc. 56 + (12 * 12) + (22 * 1) + (14 * 16) you can see that "2" out of a huge number (RMM ~ 446) is irrelevant.

Then Darrel, I can use this product, right?

Yes, you can use the <"Rotala Butterfly"> calculator. Ferrous gluconate is a <"less strongly bound chelate"> that FeEDTA etc. so tends to work better in soft water.

If you have harder, more alkaline, water you need a <"more tightly bound chelate">.

Herkese selam,

Evet, <" Rotala Butterfly "> hesap makinesini kullanabilirsiniz . Demirli glukonat, FeEDTA vb.'nin yumuşak suda daha iyi çalışma eğiliminde olduğu <" daha az güçlü bağlı bir şelattır ">.

Daha sert, daha alkali suya sahipseniz daha sıkı bağlanmış bir şelata ihtiyacınız vardır.

şerefe Darrel

Thanks Darrel
