Procedure
Into about 1500 grams of water was dissolved 150.14 grams of glycine. Next, 114.51 grams of calcium oxide, which was 70% calcium by weight, was added. The solution was continually stirred until all of the calcium oxide was dissolved. This took about 15 minutes. No heat was applied for this particular reaction, though heat could optionally be used. The resulting reaction formed a calcium glycinate chelate or complex.
