The global l-lysine market size reached USD 5.7 Billion in 2025. By 2034, IMARC Group expects the market to reach USD 10.0 Billion, at a projected CAGR of 6.30% during 2026-2034. The market is primarily driven by the rising demand from animal nutrition, expanding livestock production, increased focus on feed efficiency, and advancements in fermentation technology.
Latest News and Developments:
- September 2025: Researchers identified l-lysine as a potent stimulator of glucagon-like peptide-1 secretion, highlighting its potential role in glycemic control. In animal studies, oral l-lysine significantly increased plasma GLP-1 levels, outperforming several other amino acids, while l-alanine showed no effect. The response was partially mediated through calcium-sensing receptors in the intestine.
Product Description
L-lysine is an essential amino acid, meaning that it cannot be synthesized by the human body and must be obtained through diet. It is one of the building blocks of proteins and plays a critical role in various physiological functions. L-lysine is vital for growth and development, aiding in calcium absorption, collagen formation, and the production of hormones, enzymes, and antibodies. It is particularly important for muscle protein synthesis and tissue repair, making it a key nutrient for both humans and animals.
The production of L-lysine typically involves microbial fermentation, using bacteria such as Corynebacterium glutamicum. This bacterium is genetically engineered to enhance its ability to produce L-lysine in large quantities. The fermentation process begins with the cultivation of the bacteria in a nutrient-rich medium. The bacteria metabolize the nutrients and produce L-lysine as a byproduct.
L-lysine is widely used in animal feed, particularly for poultry, swine, and aquaculture, to enhance growth rates and feed efficiency. In humans, it is used in dietary supplements and functional foods to support overall health, including muscle maintenance and immune function. Additionally, L-lysine finds applications in the pharmaceutical industry, where it is incorporated into medications for conditions such as herpes simplex virus infections and osteoporosis. The versatility and essential nature of L-lysine make it a crucial component in the nutrition and health industries.
