Frequently Asked Questions

Q1: What's the difference between Oyster Powder and Oyster Extract Peptides?

Oyster Powder is whole oyster meat spray-dried (lower protein concentration, natural composition). Oyster Extract Peptides are hydrolyzed for higher bioavailability and protein concentration. Both deliver zinc and protein; peptides are preferred for premium formulations.

Q2: What's the natural zinc content of Oyster Powder?

Whole Oyster Powder typically contains 200-500 mg/kg (0.02-0.05%) zinc naturally. Zinc-enriched specifications are available with higher zinc content per gram.

Q3: Can Oyster Powder be combined with other ingredients?

Oyster Powder is commonly combined with Zinc Picolinate, Maca, and Tribulus in men's vitality formulations. We recommend consulting with your formulation team.

Q4: What's the regulatory status in the EU?

Oyster Powder is permitted as a food supplement ingredient in the EU. Allergen declaration (shellfish) is required on label. Specific regulatory status depends on intended application and labeling.

Q5: How is Protein Content measured?

Total Protein is quantified via Kjeldahl (N × 6.25) or Dumas combustion method.

Q6: What's the typical MOQ?

Standard MOQ is 25 kg. Smaller quantities (5-10 kg) are available for evaluation.

Q7: Do you offer custom specifications?

Yes. Custom specifications (e.g., specific zinc content, concentration ratio, particle size) can be discussed with our coordination team.

Q8: What documentation is available?

Standard documentation includes COA, MSDS, allergen statement, Non-GMO statement. Additional documentation available upon request from production partners.
