Abstract
1. Seven samples of meat meal have been assayed with rats by the protein efficiency ratio (PER) test and with Streptococcus zymogenes by Ford's (1960) ‘relative nutritive value’ (RNV) test.2. A correlation coefficient of r = + 0·895 was obtained for the results from the two series of tests.This publication has 1 reference indexed in Scilit:
