Abstract
Canine hysteria of the nutritional type has been produced in dogs by feeding baked dog foods containing wheat gluten flour and experimental rations containing wheat gluten flour. The disease appears to be caused by some toxic factor present in the wheat products. Although the proteins of these products are deficient in lysine, protein and lysine supplements do not prevent the disease. Hysteria can be caused in dogs receiving nutritionally adequate rations by the addition of wheat gluten flour to the rations.This publication has 10 references indexed in Scilit:
