Product Overview

DL-Methionine is a synthetically produced, essential sulfur-containing amino acid critical for animal health and productivity. Appearing as a white, crystalline powder or flakes with a purity of 99% or higher, it is highly soluble and stable, ensuring excellent mixability in premixes and complete feeds.

As animals cannot synthesize methionine on their own, it must be supplemented in their diet, making it a fundamental and non-negotiable component of modern, precision animal feed formulation.

💡

Core Functions & Benefits

Building Block for Protein Synthesis: Often the first-limiting amino acid in poultry and swine diets. Essential for growth, milk production, and egg synthesis.

Powerful Methyl Group Donor: Precursor for SAMe, supporting fat metabolism and preventing fatty liver syndrome.

Precursor for Antioxidants: Converts into cysteine and glutathione, strengthening immune defense and cellular integrity.

Enhanced Feed Efficiency: Improves Feed Conversion Ratio (FCR), reducing overall feed costs.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the purity of your DL-Methionine Feed Grade?

Our DL-Methionine Feed Grade maintains a high purity level of ≥ 99.0%, ensuring maximum efficacy for animal nutrition.

Why is DL-Methionine essential for poultry and swine?

It is often the first-limiting amino acid, meaning animals cannot reach their growth potential without it. It is vital for protein synthesis, muscle building, and feathering.

What are the storage requirements?

It should be stored in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area. It must be kept away from moisture, water, and toxic substances.

What is the recommended inclusion rate in feed?

The typical inclusion rate ranges from 0.05% to 0.3% in complete feed, though this varies depending on the specific animal species and their growth stage.

What is the physical form of the product?

The product is available as a white crystalline powder or small flakes, which allows for excellent mixability in various feed formulations.
