Product Overview
Zinc Citrate is a zinc mineral ingredient commonly used in dietary supplements, tablets, capsules, powder blends, oral care products, and functional nutrition formulas.
It is usually supplied as a white to off-white powder, and buyers often review elemental zinc content, assay basis, particle size, solubility, heavy metals, microbiology, and document support before technical or commercial evaluation.
It is commonly considered for zinc supplements, multivitamin-mineral formulas, oral care systems, tablets, capsules, and powder blends, with sample support and batch documentation available for sourcing reference.
Applications
Dietary Supplements
suitable for zinc tablets, capsules, sachets, and multivitamin-mineral blends where citrate-form zinc positioning is required.
Oral Care
reviewed for toothpaste, mouthwash, chewables, and oral care formulations; buyers should test taste, dispersion, compatibility, and stability.
Functional Nutrition
used in mineral powders, nutrition blends, gummies, and wellness formulas where zinc contribution and ingredient compatibility are important.
How to Choose the Right Grade / Form
For tablets and capsules, choose a grade with suitable particle size, flowability, zinc content, and excipient compatibility.
For oral care, choose a specification based on taste, dispersion, particle size, and compatibility with flavors and actives.
For powder blends, choose a grade with good mixing uniformity, moisture control, and mineral compatibility.
Confirm elemental zinc content and assay basis before formulation calculation.
Technical & Formulation Notes
Technical Notes
Zinc citrate is evaluated mainly by elemental zinc content, citrate identity, assay basis, particle size, solubility behavior, flowability, and compatibility with the final dosage form.
For oral care systems, taste profile, dispersion, and interaction with other ingredients should also be reviewed.
Manufacturing & Process
This ingredient is supplied as a zinc citrate powder for downstream supplement, nutrition, and oral care formulation use.
Commercial specifications can be reviewed according to elemental zinc target, particle size, grade standard, packaging format, and document requirements.
Compatibility / Formulation Notes
For tablets and capsules, review particle size, flowability, compressibility, and excipient compatibility.
For oral care systems, test taste, dispersion, pH behavior, interaction with surfactants, abrasives, flavors, and active ingredients.
For powder blends, confirm mixing uniformity, moisture control, and compatibility with vitamins or other minerals.
For gummies or chewables, evaluate taste impact, color, texture, and stability.
Store sealed and protected from moisture and contamination.
Extended QC & Test Items
Key QC items may include appearance, identification, zinc content, citrate identity, particle size, loss on drying, heavy metals, microbiology, and batch documentation.

FAQ
What is Zinc Citrate?
Zinc Citrate is a zinc mineral ingredient used in dietary supplements, oral care products, tablets, capsules, and powder blends.
What should buyers check before ordering?
Review elemental zinc content, assay basis, particle size, solubility, heavy metals, microbiology, and document package.
Is Zinc Citrate suitable for oral care?
Yes. It can be reviewed for oral care systems, but taste, dispersion, pH, and compatibility should be tested.
How is Zinc Citrate different from Zinc Lactate?
Zinc Citrate is a citrate-form zinc salt, while Zinc Lactate is a lactate-form zinc salt. Buyers should compare zinc content, solubility, taste, and formulation fit.
What packaging is available?
Sample packs and bulk packs such as 1 kg, 5 kg, 10 kg, 20 kg, or 25 kg are available.
Can Lifeworth provide samples and documents?
