The Protein Digestibility–Corrected Amino Acid Score [PDF]
The Journal of Nutrition, 2000 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 ...

Protein and amino acid digestibility of 15N Spirulina in rats
European Journal of Nutrition, 2020 Spirulina is often used as dietary supplement for its protein content and quality. However, in vivo data on protein digestibility are lacking. This study aims to determine nitrogen and amino acid digestibility in rats. A secondary objective was to test the effect of sonication prior to ingestion to break cell walls.Wistar rats were fed a single test ...

The Effect of Enzyme Supplementation on Apparent Ileal Amino Acid Digestibility of Broilers Fed Sorghum or Wheat [PDF]
Animal Production: Indonesian Journal of Animal Production, 2010 In plant products such as sorghum and wheat, 50-70% of total phosphorus is bound in the form of phytin-P, which is unavailable to poultry due to the lack of significant endogenous production of the enzyme phytase.

Digestible indispensable amino acid score and digestible amino acids in eight cereal grains [PDF]
British Journal of Nutrition, 2014 To determine values for the digestible indispensable amino acid score (DIAAS), it is recommended that ileal amino acid (AA) digestibility values obtained in growing pigs are used to characterise protein quality in different foods. Therefore, an experiment was conducted to determine the standardised ileal digestibility (SID) of AA in eight cereal grains

The amino acid composition of human milk corrected for amino acid digestibility [PDF]
British Journal of Nutrition, 1998 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.

Variability of amino acid digestibility in different field bean cultivars for broilers [PDF]
, 2021 1. The amino acid composition of 10 different UK-grown field bean cultivar samples from the same harvest year were determined. 2. Diets included each bean sample at a level of 200 g/kg feed compared against a control diet formulated with only soyabean

Available versus digestible dietary amino acids [PDF]
British Journal of Nutrition, 2012 Available amino acids are those absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract in a form suitable for body protein synthesis. True ileal digestible amino acids are determined based on the difference between dietary amino acid intake and unabsorbed dietary amino acids at the terminal ileum.

True ileal amino acid digestibility and digestible indispensable amino acid scores (DIAASs) of plant-based protein foods [PDF]
Food Chemistry, 2021 Plant-based protein foods are increasingly common, but data on their nutritional protein quality are scarce. This study evaluated it for seitan (wheat-based food), tofu (soya-based food), soya milk, and a pea emulsion. The true ileal digestibility (TID) of their amino acids was determined in minipigs, to calculate the digestible indispensable amino ...

Determination of Dietary Amino Acid Digestibility in Humans [PDF]
The Journal of Nutrition, 2019 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.

The digestibility of amino acids in the small intestine of the sheep [PDF]
British Journal of Nutrition, 1981 1. The digestibilities of microbial and food proteins in the small intestine were studied in three sheep fitted with re-entrant cannulas in the proximal duodenum and terminal ileum.2. The quantities of microbial and food proteins at the small intestine were varied by infusion of a microbial isolate or by dietary manipulation and the balance of amino ...
