Useful:

• Description: Zinc Sulfate Monohydrate is a crucial chemical compound existing in the form of colorless orthorhombic crystals or white powder. Chemically, it is soluble in water, slightly soluble in alcohol, and insoluble in acetone. Due to its deliquescent nature, it requires protection from moisture during transportation and storage.
• Mechanism of Action: It acts as a zinc salt and plays a pivotal role in various biological processes, serving as a component of enzymes, proteins, and ribose in animals. Zinc sulfate monohydrate participates in carbohydrate and lipid metabolism and catalyzes pyruvate interconversion with lactic acid to promote growth.
• Used in Agriculture, Industry, and Medicine: Zinc Sulfate Monohydrate finds applications across multiple industries. In agriculture, it serves as a fertilizer and feed additive, aiding in plant growth and animal nutrition.^[1] Industrially, it is utilized in electroplating, flotation processes, and as a preventive measure against fruit tree diseases. Additionally, it is employed in the treatment of circulating cooling water.^[3] Furthermore, in medicine, Zinc Sulfate Monohydrate is incorporated into formulations as a dietary supplement, particularly in nano-sized formulations, to overcome barriers in absorption processes. It plays a crucial role in maintaining normal physiological conditions and preventing deficiencies associated with anorexia, infection, growth failure, and impaired wound healing. Additionally, it has been studied for its potential effects on dairy cows, with supplementation impacting milk yield, feed intake, and overall health. ^[2]
