title: Reversal of ethionine intoxication in the domestic fowl with methionine and adenine sulphate.
abstract: When DL-methionine was administered to young chickens fed on a diet containing DL-ethionine (2 g/kg) growth recommenced and proceeded linearly for the first 2 d; the rate was dependent on the amount of methionine administered. 2. Adenine sulphate did not stimulate growth but when given with methionine the response was enhanced.
