Description
Key Functions and Applications
DL-Methionine is one of the most widely used amino acid additives in the feed industry, accounting for approximately 60% of amino acid feed additives.
Core Functions:
1.Balancing Amino Acid Nutrition: Supplementing the first limiting amino acid in plant-based feeds (e.g., corn, soybean meal) to improve protein utilization efficiency.
2.Promoting Animal Growth: Significantly promoting growth in young animals, reducing feed conversion ratio, and improving feed efficiency.
3.Methyl Donor: Participating in protein synthesis, lipid metabolism, and antioxidant system construction in animals.
4.Improving Production Performance: Increasing laying rate, fertilization rate, and hatchability in poultry; improving eggshell quality; enhancing coat luster; improving milk production in dairy cows.
Recommended Inclusion Rates:
Piglet feed: 0.15%-0.3%
Broiler feed: 0.1%-0.25%
Ruminant feed: 0.08%-0.15%
Freshwater fish feed: 0.2%-0.4%
Shrimp and crab feed: 0.3%-0.5%
Bioavailability
Animals can convert D-methionine to utilizable L-methionine via racemase enzymes. DL-methionine achieves 80%-90% bioavailability compared to L-methionine, offering a highly cost-effective methionine supplementation solution.
