Abstract
As a result of this investigation, mimafen was modified by the addition of extra riboflavine, choline, a-tocopherol and folic acid, and the substitution of lactose by dextrimaltose. This modified minafen + Phe was shown to be a suitable food for an infant, but attention is drawn to the fact that it has a somewhat lower N content than National dried full-cream milk and lofenalac. Supplementation of "modified minafen" with milk or another phenylalanine-containing food is still necessary in a phenyl-ketonuric infant.Keywords
