Methionine (Met) metabolism is vital for one carbon metabolism, redox status and fetal development. Hence, this study investigated the effects of different levels and sources of Met on maternal metabolism, anti-oxidative capacity and fetal survival in pregnant sows. Forty primiparous sows were assigned to the following four groups: control group (basal diet, CON), 1.5S-OHMet group (supplemented methionine hydroxy analogue [OHMet] at 1.5 g/kg diet), 3.0S-OHMet group (supplemented OHMet at 3.0 g/kg diet), and 3.0S-Met group (supplemented L-Met at 3.0 g/kg diet) (
