Abstract
SUMMARY: Study of the complementary value of soybean and corn proteins in young growing rats resulted in the formulation of INCAP Vegetable Mixture 14: 58% corn flour, 3870 soybean flour, 3% torula yeast, 1% calcium phosphate, and 4,500 I.U. vitamin A per 100 g. The mixture contains approximately 27% protein. Formula 14, evaluated in young growing dogs, was slightly lower in protein quality than casein. Its main limiting amino acid is methionine, but only when fed at a low level of protein. The addition of lysine and threonine in the presence of methionine caused a highly significant increase in protein efficiency ratio. Only a small response was obtained when milk protein replaced Formula 14 protein in isoproteic diets.This publication has 8 references indexed in Scilit:
