BETAMETHIONE is a natural composite formulation that contains bioactive natural methionine derived from methionine rich and methionine synthesizing natural plants alongwith betaine, folic acid and organic sulfur complex.
Natural Methionine
Natural methionine in free as well conjugated dipeptides and oligopeptides form incorporates nearly two times more into different tissues of poultry birds and excretes approximately five times less as compared to synthetic dl-methionine, providing sustained bioactivity.
Natural precursors and intermediates of methionine present in BetaMethione facilitate optimum biosynthesis of methionine.
Betaine
Betaine exerts about four times the transmethylation activity than dl-methionine. Thus 100g betaine can replace 400g of dl-methionine for transmethylation reaction which helps to spare costly dietary and supplemental methionine to be more efficiently utilized for protein accretion, growth and immune competence etc.
Besides methyl donation, betaine optimizes digestibility of protein and fat, improves carcass quality, acts as osmolyte to maintain water and electrolyte balance, reduces heat stress, coccidial lesions and litter moisture
Organic Sulfur
Sulfur in organic complex form optimises biosynthesis of methionine from its precursors, as it is an important component of methionine.
Folic Acid
Folic acid helps in one-carbon transfer reactions and thus spares methionine for protein synthesis and also helps in recycling of methionine from homocysteine.
All the above components of BETAMETHIONE together help regular and optimum biosynthesis and availability of methionine, facilitate more efficient transmethylation reactions, optimize protein synthesis, energy metabolism & carcass quality, maintaining a balance in the metabolic pool of methionine and methyl donors.
By replacing synthetic dl-methionine in the diet, BETAMETHIONE helps to reduce feed cost, whilst maintaining performance of birds at optimum levels.
