What Is L-Methionine?

L-Methionine is a sulfur-containing amino acid identified by CAS 63-68-3. The supplied white crystalline ingredient has a specified assay of 98.5–101.5%.

Its L-form identity distinguishes it from DL-methionine and from methionine-containing protein hydrolysates. It can be evaluated in amino acid blends and professional nutrition ingredient systems that require a defined methionine contribution. Formulation calculations should use the stated assay and identity rather than treating different stereochemical forms or protein-bound sources as interchangeable raw materials.

FORMULATION

L-Methionine Applications

Nutrition blends

The amino acid ingredient is an option for suitable nutrition blends and powder formulations. Assay, identity and impurity requirements help purchasing teams define the material grade and compare supplier quotations.

Food formulation and processing

Suitable food-related formulation or processing applications can use the selected amino acid grade. Match the recipe requirements and intended manufacturing process to the technical specification when ordering.

Ingredient premixes

L-Methionine can be incorporated into compatible amino acid and multi-ingredient premixes. Specify the required composition, grade and packing so sample evaluation and commercial sourcing use the same material.
