L-Lysine HCL is one of the most widely used amino acid. It is an essential amino acid required in the diets of swine, poultry and most other animal species. L-lysine Hcl is frequently the first-limiting amino acid in many of the additives commonly included in swine and poultry feeds. Inclusion of pure lysine in the diets of swine and poultry is not only justified on the basis of least-cost formulation, but also enables the nutritionist to balance the diet to meet the animal' s requirements more closely.
