L-Lysine Sulfate is a feed-grade amino acid product containing L-Lysine in combination with sulfate, typically providing 50-70% L-Lysine content along with residual fermentation biomass. It is produced through microbial fermentation followed by a simplified downstream process that retains some of the fermentation broth nutrients.
This processing approach makes L-Lysine Sulfate a cost-effective alternative to L-Lysine HCl for animal feed applications. The residual biomass provides additional nutritional value including vitamins, minerals, and other amino acids. L-Lysine Sulfate is widely used in compound feed manufacturing where its granular form ensures good mixing and handling properties.
