The amino acid composition of human milk corrected for amino acid digestibility [PDF]
Human milk was collected from women in their 10th–14th weeks of lactation, and was analysed for amino acids. Corrections were made for losses of amino acids which were presumed to occur during acid hydrolysis, using a non-linear mathematical model that describes the simultaneous processes of amino acid yield and decay.

The nutritional values of the protein are related to its amino acid content, and its physicochemical properties. We aimed to determine the relationship between the variation of protein digestibility or the releasing coefficient of amino acids with the ...

Determination of Dietary Amino Acid Digestibility in Humans [PDF]
Dietary amino acid digestibility is a fundamental measure of importance in protein quality evaluation. Determining amino acid digestibility in humans, as the disappearance of an amino acid across the total digestive tract, has been discredited. Extensive cecal and colonic microbial metabolism renders fecal estimates of amino acids misleading.

Need for protein supplementation in the diet of growing dairy bulls fed total mixed ration based on moderate digestible grass silage and barley [PDF]
The objective of the present experiment was to study the need for the protein supplementation in the diet of growing dairy bulls (initial live weight 272 ± 28.5 kg and final live weight 666 ± 31.2 kg, on average) fed total mixed ration based on moderate ...

Prediction of Digestible and Metabolizable Energy Content and Standardized Ileal Amino Acid Digestibility in Wheat Shorts and Red Dog for Growing Pigs [PDF]
Two experiments were conducted to evaluate the effects of chemical composition of wheat shorts and red dog on energy and amino acid digestibility in growing pigs and to establish prediction models to estimate their digestible (DE) and metabolizable (ME ...

The Protein Digestibility–Corrected Amino Acid Score [PDF]
The protein digestibility-corrected amino acid score (PDCAAS) has been adopted by FAO/WHO as the preferred method for the measurement of the protein value in human nutrition. The method is based on comparison of the concentration of the first limiting essential amino acid in the test protein with the concentration of that amino acid in a reference ...

SUMMARY Databases compiling the amino acid (AA) digestibility values of 20 common poultry feed ingredients from 2 commercial companies, Evonik Degussa (Burr Ridge, IL; chick assays) and Ajinomoto Heartland (Chicago, IL; rooster assays), were used to investigate the influence of AA concentration on observed digestibility values.
