CAS: 56-87-1
MF: C6H14N2O2
MW: 146.19
EINECS: 200-294-2
Chemical Properties White to pale yellow crystalline powder
Usage Essential amino acid for human development. Lysine residues are useful in many cellular processes, due to their ability to accept a wide variety of post-translational modifications.
L-Lysine, one of essential amino acids, is the first limiting amino acid for pigs and the second for poultry. The level of dietary L-Lysine concentration significantly influences on the growth performance and feed efficiency. Supplementing L-Lysine in dietary could balance the amino acid profile in the formula and fulfill the requirements of animals to optimize the technico-economic result of production.
