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.

Effect of Varying Levels of Dietary Tryptophan on Aggression and Abnormal Behavior in Growing Pigs
Body lesions, resulting from tail-biting and ear-biting, can result in decreased health and welfare in pigs. Tryptophan, an indispensable amino acid, is needed to support protein deposition, and the synthesis of the neurotransmitter serotonin, which is ...

Effects of lysine levels on performance, blood parameters, and nutrient digestibility of Duroc barrows in the starter phase [PDF]
The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of different levels of digestible lysine, at fixed amino acid ratios, in performance, blood parameters and diet digestibility of barrows from 15 to 30 kg.

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.

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 ...

The amino acid contents of whole body were determined in male ducks at 5 age intervals from d 1 to 29 post hatch. Whole body homogenates were analyzed of dry matter, nitrogen, and amino acids and used to determine amino acid accretion rates and ...

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.
