Methionine is an essential amino acid that is not synthesized by animals, so it must be obtained from their diets. Methionine is
traditionally available as: D,L-Methionine (DLM) and Methionine Hydroxy Analog (MHA). Globally, 98% of methionine produced is used as
an animal feed additive.
Methionine is mainly derived from petrochemical sources. However, biochemical routes have been researched. For instance, companies
such as CJ Bio, Arkema, Metabolic Explorer and Roquette developed processes for bio-based Methionine production.
Intratec portfolio includes reports examining Methionine production cost, with in-depth analysis of specific production processes and
high-level comparisons of different production routes.
