Methionine Chelate
Limiting Amino Acid · Dual Nutrition
Methionine – a core essential amino acid and the first limiting amino acid for poultry, as well as a key limiting amino acid for swine – is used as our ligand to chelate with zinc, manganese, copper, and iron. Through targeted absorption via amino acid‑specific transport channels, our products achieve highly efficient dual nutritional supplementation of both trace minerals and limiting amino acids.
