Abstract
Chemical composition, biological quality of the protein, and toxicity were determined for FPC, SPM, FPC-enriched food, and mixtures based on these concentrates. Acceptability and tolerance were tested in human trials. The FPC improved the biological quality of cereal-based foods. When fed as the only source of protein, FPC produced normal growth in infants. Mixtures containing FPC and SPM showed a high net protein utilization in the rat and produced normal growth in children when they supplied 70% of the total daily dietary protein.
