Poultry diets are typically supplemented with DL-2-hydroxy-4(methylthio) butanoic acid (HMTBA, or the hydroxy analog of methionine) or DL-methionine (DLM). Although HMTBA and DLM provide methionine activity, they are structurally distinct molecules with different physiological characteristics until they are converted to L-methionine. The relative rates of intestinal HMTBA vs. DLM absorption have been controversial, and it has been claimed that HMTBA is not fully absorbed. We measured the uptake of HMTBA and DLM in an in vitro everted intestinal slice model. Sections of intestinal slices (jejunum and ileum) were incubated with 0.1 to 50 mM HMTBA that was radiolabeled or DLM that was radiolabeled, and absorption was measured by scintillation counting. The HMTBA uptake was equal to or greater than DLM absorption in each tissue and at every time point with one exception. Furthermore, the rates of HMTBA absorption were always equal to or significantly greater than DLM uptake. In a separate in vivo experiment, absorption of HMTBA and L-methionine was monitored along the entire gastrointestinal (GI) tract. Broilers were fed commercial-type corn-soy diets supplemented with 0.21% HMTBA. Digesta was collected from crop, proventriculus, gizzard, duodenum, jejunum, ileum, large intestine, and cloaca and analyzed for the concentration of free HMTBA and free methionine in each compartment. These studies demonstrated that HMTBA is absorbed completely and along the entire GI tract, especially the upper GI tract. Furthermore, there was a higher concentration of free L-methionine than HMTBA in the digesta from every segment distal to the gizzard.
