Abstract
In continuation of our work on the relative supplemental value of animal and vegetable protein concentrates (Woodman & Evans, 1951), a study has been made of the proteins in extracted soya-bean meal. It is probable that vegetable protein concentrates may vary among themselves in nutritive value and that the proteins of ground-nut meal, which were the subject of investigation in our previous experiments, could not for this reason be regarded as representative of vegetable proteins in general. The same basal diet, composed of roughly 2 parts of barley meal and 1 part of fine bran, together with a little lucerne meal and minerals, was again used in the present investigation.
