A significant amount of research has been conducted to investigate the relative bioavailability of supplementary methionine sources for animal feed. These studies consistently report a bioavailability of around 65% MHA-FA when compared to DL-methionine on a product basis (Jansman et al. 2003 ; Lemme and Petri 2003 ; Rademacher et al. 2007 ; Sauer et al. 2008 ; Lemme 2010 ; Htoo and Rademacher 2012 ; Lemme et al. 2012 ; Lemme et al. 2020). Evonik continues to investigate the biological difference between MHA-FA and DL-methionine, as you can see below in our latest peer-reviewed articles.

This evaluation of the utilization of supplemental Met sources for Met+Cys deposition in body protein provides further evidence for a higher efficiency and, thus, nutritional value of DL-Met over HMTBA.

This study demonstrates the mean RBV of MHA-Ca to DL-Met of 65.7% on a product-to-product (wt/wt) basis or 78.2% on an equimolar basis.

Effects of DL-methionine and a methionine hydroxy analogue (MHA-Ca) on growth, amino acid profiles and the expression of genes related to taurine and protein synthesis in common carp. Aquaculture 532: 735962
Zhou, Y., He, J., Su, N., Masagounder, K., Xu, M., Chen, L., Liu, Q., Ye, H., Sun, Z. and Ye, C. 2021
This study indicates that dietary DL-Met or MHA-Ca supplementation could increase free essential amino acids in serum, as well as improve taurine synthesis and protein synthesis in common carp. Multi-exponential regression analysis showed that MHA-Ca was less utilized by common carp than DL-Met with bioavailability values of 41% to 50% on weight-for-weight basis.
