Description
In the past, the function of amino acids as a component that constitutes proteins was examined. However, as biochemical technologies have developed in many fields such as cell culture, the physiological functions of amino acids have been realised and have to be considered in designing feed formulation to maximise the growth of the animal. Particularly it is used for monogastric animal species.
DL – Methionine, light yellow powder is synthesized from phyto biochemical raw materials using an environmentally friendly patented proprietary process known as the SSF process. This proven complex system results in a high quality product without the formation of waste salt, while largely avoiding pollution by waste air and water.
Applications & Uses
- Since methionine is limited in plant protein sources and is required at high level for feather growth and protein synthesis, methionine is always classified as the first limiting amino acid in poultry, pigs & piglets because of low nitrogen excretion due to ecological reasons resulting in methionine deficiency. Thus our feed grade methionine can be compensated.
- Methionine has many physiological functions, e.g. as an important methyl donor to provide the methyl group (CH4) necessary for metabolism in the body.
- Methionine not only serves as a constituent of body protein but also is involved in the development of the digestive tract and growth performance.
- Furthermore, it has a function of increasing muscle mass, feather development and improving egg production in poultry.
- Methionine is also known to reduce oxidative stress in the body by increasing antioxidative compounds such as glutathione.
