Cattle
Chelated trace element injection for sheep, beef and dairy cattle deficient in and/or responsive to zinc (Zn), manganese (Mn), selenium (Se) and/or vitamin B12 supplementation.
Benefits
- Growth: Bone, muscle, joint development (Zn, Mn, Se)
- Reproduction: Supports key reproductive functions (fertility, pregnancy) through essential minerals (Zn, Mn, Se)
- Immune Defence: Boosts immune defense (Zn, Mn, Se)
- Energy: Vitamin B12 supports energy production which is the backbone of production

Marks-Min® Copper Free Injectable Trace Mineral with Vitamin B12 for Cattle & Sheep contains selenium, zinc, manganese and vitamin B12, which are required for optimal health, production and fertility. Sub-optimal trace mineral and vitamin B12 status at parturition and mating has been shown to negatively impact production, reproduction and health.
Optimising trace element status relying solely on oral supplements may fail as a result of variation in individual intake and reduced absorption because of antagonism of other ration components and minerals to these essential trace elements.
Using an injectable supplement can improve trace mineral and vitamin B12 status at these critical times, promoting a healthy immune system, which is important in resisting disease, and has a positive impact on reproduction.
For full list of indications see Fact Sheet.
