Lysine

L-Lysine sulfate is a cost-effective, stable form of L-lysine—an essential amino acid that humans, poultry, swine, and aquaculture species cannot synthesize on their own, requiring external intake.

Details

Its main source is microbial fermentation, using renewable raw materials like corn starch or sugarcane molasses. This process ensures high purity, scalability, and environmental sustainability.

Compared to L-lysine hydrochloride, it has key advantages: better stability (resistant to heat/moisture in storage), lower production costs, and excellent miscibility (blends easily with feeds, foods, or supplements without clumping).

Its primary uses include: fortifying animal feed to boost growth and feed conversion efficiency; adding to cereals, beverages, or vegetarian supplements to enrich amino acid profiles; and being used in dietary supplements to support human immune function and address lysine deficiencies related to oral or skin health.
