Application:
L-Methionine (H-Met-OH; Abbreviated Met or M) (CAS: 63-68-3) is the L-isomer of Methionine, an essential amino acid for human development. Methionine acts as a hepatoprotectant. L-Methionine is used for biochemical studies. L-Methionine is used in the fields of chiral drugs, chiral additives, chiral auxiliaries and the like, and is used as a chiral source for chiral synthesis in the pharmaceutical industry. L-Methionine can be used in the synthesis of medicinal vitamins, nutritional supplements and feed additives. L-Methionine is one of the main components of amino acid infusion and compound amino acid. L-methionine has anti-fatty liver function. Taking advantage of this function, the synthetic medicinal vitamins can be used as liver protection preparations. Function of L-Methionine 1. L-Methionine can be used as nutional supplement. DL-methionine has the same effect with L-methionine, but DL-methionine is cheaper. 2. L-Methionine can be formulated as a flavoring agent. 3. L-Methionine has a protective role of the liver. Methionine has effects of anti cirrhosis, fatty liver, and a variety of acute, chronic, viral, jaundice liver. 4. L-Methionine has a myocardial protective effect. 5. L-Methionine has an antidepressant effect. 6. L-Methionine has a blood pressure lowering effect. 7. L-Methionine has an antivirus poison eradicates effect. 8. L-Methionine is the feed nutrition enhancer.Livestock and poultry lack of methionine, can lead to stunted growth, weight loss, liver and kidney function abate, muscle atrophy, fur, metamorphism and so on.Add 1 kg methionine, feed of 50 kg fish meal nutrition value.Feed in the general content of 0, 05 % to 0.2%. Methionine is a kind of important amino acid varieties, is a kind of indispensable in the animal feed additives, animal feed with methionine added can help animals grew quickly in a short time, make its save about 40% of the feed. In the compound feed, especially poultry feed, methionine is the first limiting amino acid. Application of L-Methionine 1. Food grade: nutrition enhancer, flavouring agent, improving food nutrition value and flavor 2. Feed grade: improving animal production performance, health and the quality of animal products 3. Medicine grade: liver and myocardial protection, fight depression, fall blood pressure 4. Nutritional Supplements 5. Methionine is biological protein synthesis skeleton amino acids. Methionine is the necessary growth factors in livestock animal. It can also regulate animal's metabolism.63-68-3 AJI 97 Test Method:
