15. APPLICATION OF LYSINE IN LIVESTOCK
INDUSTRY
Lysine is part of the 20 AAs
that serve as building blocks
for protein biosynthesis
Lysine is considered as the
essential dietary AAs since it
needs to be supplied
exogenously
Lysine is usually given as
capsules, tablets, or liquid
mixed with the feedstock
Building blocks
for protein
Cannot be
produced naturally
Used as supplement in
feedstock
WHY LYSINE IS IMPORTANT IN LIVESTOCK INDUSTRY AND HOW IT IS USED?
(ESPECIALLY MONOGASTRIC ANIMALS)
16. BENEFITS OF LYSINE
● Lysine can improve muscle protein
accretion and whole-body growth
of monogastric animals such as
pigs
● Lysine plays a role in the
production of carnitine, which
turns fats into energy and helps
lower cholesterol
17. BENEFITS OF LYSINE
● Lysine assists in calcium absorption
and collagen production.
● Helps in keeping the skin, bones,
cartilage and tissues healthy.
● Lysine plays a role as a crucial
precursor for de novo synthesis of
glutamate
● It is an excitatory neurotransmitter in
the mammalian CNS.
18. BENEFITS OF LYSINE
● Lysine involves in the synthesis of
cytokines, lymphocytes and the
optimum functioning of the immune
system.
● Lysine also affect the hormone
production and activity in the body.
● Eg: hormone like insulin-like growth
factor (IGF-1).
19. BENEFITS OF LYSINE
● IGF-1 is a hormone in which it functions
primarily to stimulate growth.
● A study conducted on rats showed that IGF-
1 level drops with a low level lysine diet
(Liao et al., 2015).
● Another study conducted on pigs also
showed the same result.
● IGF-1 hormone is influenced by the
concentration of lysine available in which
better lysine concentration helps in
producing more IGF-1 hormone
● This study shows the results of different
concentrations of lysine on body weight of
broilers after 6 weeks (Nasr & Kheiri, 2011).
● It can be concluded that broiler fed with
high lys (120% NRC) gained the most
weight over time.
● High lysine content in the feed is important
for the production of broiler chickens to
produce high quality meat.
20. RECOMMENDED VOLUME FOR LYSINE
CONSUMPTION
- The NRC dietary total lysine
recommendation for starting broiler
chicks from 0 to 21 days of age was
1.2% of the diet in the 1984 edition.
- In the 1994 edition the NRC
lowered this recommendation to
1.1% of the diet.

B
SInce L-arginine is biosynthesized from the
precursor L-glutamic acid through ornithine
and citrulline, the use of strains with a high
capability for producing L-glutamic acid such
as Corynebacterium (Brevibacterium) is
desirable. It is well known in the production
of L-glutamic acid on a commercial scale
Editor's Notes
Arginine is one of the essential amino acids used in aquaculture industries aside from glutamic acid. For today, we will emphasize on the production of L-arginine using microbiological synthesis. Most arginine with the L-configuration has been produced by the direct-fermentation method from natural carbon sources.
As of now, we will talk about the production of amino acid in aqualculture industry as these dietary amino acids needed for growth and maintenance of aquatic species being cultured. In fish, shrimp and other aquatic species, the role of amino acids in the diet is to work as the basic unit for protein synthesis.
Arginine is often considered to be the most hydrophilic of the 20 natural amino acids. It is a nonessential amino acids that can be produced by the human body. Its side chain contains a large guanidinium moiety that has the capacity for up to six hydrogen bonds as shown in the figure. L-arginine is an L-alpha-amino acid that is the L-isomer of arginine. This is the chemical formula of arginine. It is basic and has two functional groups, a carboxyl group (COOH) and an amine group (NH2).It is also from glutamine family amino acid which plays role as a Escherichia coli and Cornyebacterium metabolite.
There are two types of metabolic control mechanisms in microorganisms. In type 1, which includes Escherichia coli and Bacillus subtilis, N-acetylglutamate is synthesized from L-glutamate by N-acetylglutamate synthase, and this enzyme is strongly inhibited by L-arginine through a feedback control mechanism. In type 2, which includes Corynebacterium (Brevibacterium), N-acetylglutamate-acetylornithine acetyltransferase, which is not inhibited by L-arginine, catalyzes a transacetylation reaction between glutamate and N-acetylor-nithine to form N-acetylglutamate and ornithine. However, N-acetylglutamokinase is inhibited by L-arginine in type 2.Briefly, to produce L-arginine efficiently by fermentation, it is necessary to breed strains with a strong biosynthetic pathway to L-arginine. Since it is biosynthesized from the precursor L-glutamic acid through ornithine and citrulline, the use of strains with a high capability for producing L-glutamic acid is desirable. And so the Corynebacterium (Brevibacterium) enters the picture as a better alternative, which is well known in the production of L-glutamic acid, was selected as a starting strain for the breeding of an L-arginine producer and has been used on a commercial scale.
Glucose from tapioca or corn is one of the best carbon sources for L-arginine production. Because 1 molecule of L-arginine contains 4 nitrogen atoms, ammonia is an essential raw material for supplying nitrogen. Starches from tapioca and corn are the main raw materials for amino acid fermentation. Sugar and sugar syrup are also used. Starches are first hydrolyzed with enzymes such as liquid amylase and glucoamylase to form liquid glucose. After filtration, the glucose solution is 95% dextrose. Another important raw material is ammonium sulfate. The L-arginine molecule is 32% nitrogen, the highest nitrogen content of any amino acid. This means that an ample nitrogen source must be supplied to produce a large amount of Larginine. Regarding the fermentation conditions, as for other amino acids, L-arginine fermentation is controlled by regulating pH near the neutral point. Due to its high oxygen requirement, L-arginine production is seriously impaired without sufficient oxygen. The production of L-arginine is strongly inhibited by the lack of oxygen, because oxygen is one of the raw materials for L-arginine. Oxygen dissolves in culture broth with a saturation value as low as 7.5 ppm at atmospheric pressure, so air must constantly be introduced into the fermentation vessel. Lactic acid accumulates in a culture where oxygen is extremely deficient. In aerobic amino acid fermentation, oxygen is one of the raw materials that must be supplied in large amounts
This is the brief representation of what is required for the L-arginine synthesis using Corynebacterium as the bacterial source or microorganism. Corynebacterium is a genus of bacteria that are Gram-positive and most are aerobic. As mentioned before, oxygen and ammonium sulphate is needed to produce L-arginine.
After L-arginine fermentation completed, the microorganisms are separated by centrifugal separation or membrane filtration. The supernatant or filtrate is charged to the resin column to separate organic acids or other amino acids.cation and anion types of resin are used to minimize the impurities in the L-arginine crystals.Active carbon powder is used for decoloration. After filtration through active carbon powder, the filtrate is concentrated to form the L-arginine crystals, which are separated by centrifugation. The crystals are dissolved in pure water and then ultrafiltered. The pure crystals are obtained by concentration and cooling. Because L-arginine dissolves well in hot water (Fig. 5), the concentrated solution must be cooled to 10°C to obtain L-arginine crystals. The crystals are dried with a dryer to minimize the moisture concentration at 0.5%. The obtained crystals (Fig. 6) are 98.5% pure.
