Synthetic methionine is traditionally commercially available in two varieties: D,L-methionine (DLM), a racemic mixture of the two stereoisomers, and methionine hydroxy analog (MHA). For animal nutrition, the two are equivalent. Globally, 98% of methionine produced is used as an animal feed additive, especially in the poultry market. Methionine is also used in pharmaceuticals and cosmetics.Methionine is an essential amino acid that is not synthesized by animals, so it must be obtained from their diets.
