Abstract
In experiments with vitamin B2 deficient and normal control rats, receiving equivalent amounts of food, it was found that the control animals made better gains in weight. Nitrogen balance studies led to inconclusive results although the biological value of the ingested N, calculated_ according to the method of Mitchell, was slightly higher in the case of the control animals.This publication has 4 references indexed in Scilit:
