About

Gluconate salts of Iron, Manganese, Magnesium, Zinc, Calcium, and Barium are used as the mineral supplements in humans and also as micronutrient in formulations for nutrient deficient soils. The technology available so far uses electrolytic method for the production of such salts which is cost prohibitive and generates a lot of polluting effluents. IIIM, has developed a fermentation process for the production of these salts. The technology is non-polluting, and cost effective.
