Amino Acids

Balancing rations for amino acids has many positive effects on animal production. Using an Amino Acid Profile can allow for higher milk yields, greater component production as well as greater herd profitability through decreased feed costs and improved milk yields.

At CVAS we provide three different options for amino acid analysis. All Amino Acid Profile analyses are completed using AOAC Official Methodology (see below). These options are the CML+9, Full Profile including Tryptophan and a Full Profile without Tryptophan. The CML+9 provides Cysteine, Methionine, Lysine plus 9 additional amino acids. The Full Profile provides all 20 essential and non-essential amino acids plus the non-proteinogenic amino acid Ornithine. The Full Profile without Tryptophan includes all results from the Full Profile with the exception of Tryptophan. Individual tests are available for Methionine, Lysine and Tryptophan.

For more information about our Amino Acids Packages, please see the CVAS Amino Acid Fact Sheet.
