Sulfur and Methionine Metabolism in Sheep. II. Quantitative Estimates of Sulfur Metabolism in the Sheep's Stomach

Abstract

The metabolism of dietary and supplemental DL-methionine sulfur in the stomach of sheep was studied in two experiments. In both experiments sheep were fed a 50 : 50 oaten chaff: lucerne chaff ration at two levels of intake, and some animals received intraruminal infusions of DL-methionine.
