Dietary supplementation of di- and trimethylglycine to attenuate the effects of pulmonary hypertension syndrome (ascites) in broilers
Both N, N-dimethylglycine (DMG) and trimethylglycine (Betaine; TMG) are intermediary metabolites in the pathway of choline-to-glycine metabolism. DMG possess non-enzymatic anti-oxidant properties and have been implicated in enhanced oxygen utilisation while TMG posses osmolytic, methyl-donating, lip...
