Abstract

In place of using solid DL-methionine for supplementing mixed fodders there are used sodium or potassium methioninate solutions. In comparison to solid methionine they are more easily dosable and can be more easily homogeneously mixed with the remaining components. Employing equimolar amounts they show the same methionine activity as solid methionine.
