Liquid Mineral Supplement
LT4® is a balanced liquid trace mineral supplement packaged for cattle and horses manufactured by Global Animal Products, Inc. in Amarillo, Texas and Austasia Animal Products in Forbes, NSW, Australia.
LT4® contains zinc methionine, manganese methionine, copper dibetaine and cobalt sulfate.
What Is LT4®?
LT4® is an organic source of zinc, copper, and manganese and an inorganic source of cobalt. Zinc and manganese are chemically-bonded to methionine while copper is chemically bonded to betaine.
Why are Methionine and Betaine Important?
Methionine is an essential sulfur-containing amino acid. It is one of the most limiting amino acids and cannot be synthesized in enough quantity by cattle to meet daily requirements.
Betaine or try-methyl glycine is a component of many metabolic pathways. Chemically, it is similar to choline, one of the B vitamins.
Why Feed LT4®?
LT4® contains vital trace minerals plus methionine and betaine in a convenient, easy to use, liquid that is easily adaptable to different feeding regimens. By providing highly bioavailable forms of copper, zinc, manganese and cobalt, LT4® ensures your animals receive their essential daily requirements. All of this is available in LT4® at a cost lower than comparable products on the market.
Typical Chemical Composition of LT4®
- 4.38% Zinc, from ZinMet® liquid zinc methionine
- 2.43% Manganese from ManMet® liquid manganese methionine
- 1.52% Copper from CuBet® copper dibetaine
