Heptaglucans

Carbohydrate molecules for metal-ion chelation

•       Trace elements are required in small amounts but are essential for healthy growth

•       Chelating trace elements facilitates plant uptake through the leaf

•       Traditional chelation uses “harsh” chemistry that can be persistent in the environment e.g. EDTA, DTPA, EDDHA and HEDTA

•       Heptaglucans are derived from sugar

•       Organic Approved by OF&G

•       No scorch – even at high concentrations

•       Highly biodegradable into natural products – do not persist in soil or water

•       Active over a wide range – pH 2 to pH 12

•       Highly water-soluble

•       Tank mix compatible with many plant protection products
