Description
What it is. Nutritional additive of functional group 3c (amino acids, salts and analogues), in the form of an aqueous solution of L-lysine monohydrochloride, with a minimum L-lysine content of 22.4 % and a maximum moisture content of 65 %. The active substance is produced by fermentation using Escherichia coli (strain NITE BP-02917).
What it is for. This liquid form supplies lysine, an essential amino acid often limiting in cereal- and oilmeal-based diets. It is used to balance the amino acid profile of compound feed and can also be administered via drinking water, across all animal species. This liquid format is particularly suited to in-line dosing equipment and drinking water systems.
Points to watch. The lysine content of the additive must be stated on the label. Storage conditions, stability under heat treatment and stability in drinking water must be specified in the instructions for use of the additive and premixtures, and observed to ensure the actual lysine intake.
