The nutritional role of lysine

The chemical name of L-lysine is L-2,6-diaminoacetic acid, molecular formula: C5H14N2O2?HCL white crystal. Lysine is often the first or second restricted essential amino acid due to its high nutritional requirements and low levels of feed ingredients. zcY China Feed Industry Information Network - based on feed, serving animal husbandry

The content of lysine in cereal feed is not high. Although the content of bean feed is high, soy cake or soybean meal as raw material for chicken feed is a by-product of processing. Lysine will reduce activity when it is heated or stored for a long time. Although there are many lysines in animal feed such as fishmeal, there are similar problems of inactivation. Thus, the lysine that can be utilized in the feed is only about 80% of the value obtained by chemical analysis. Antagonism between lysine and arginine is still present in the nutrition of lysine. zcY China Feed Industry Information Network - based on feed, serving animal husbandry
