biological activity | Calcium 2-hydroxy-4-(methylthio)butanoate is an active endogenous metabolite. |
use | this product is a feed nutrition fortifier, and its action and biological potency are the same as DL -- methionine in the presence of L-methionine. Lack of methionine in livestock and poultry can cause dysplasia, weight loss, weakened liver and kidney function, muscle atrophy, and fur deterioration. This product is widely used in organic synthesis, dyes, pharmaceuticals, pesticides, etc. It can be used as a catalyst, chlorinating agent, curing agent and stabilizer in organic synthesis; it can be used as a raw material for the production of dispersed red 343 in the dye industry; it can be used in the production of oxalazin in medicine; it can be used as a color regulator for color photos; It can also be used as a fungicide, etc. |
production method | is obtained by neutralizing liquid hydroxymethionine with calcium hydroxide or calcium oxide, and drying, crushing and sieving. |
