Nutritional indices of protein
> Whipple introduce plasmapheresis are as means to assess the
nutritional value of protein.
>Modern way to assess the nutritional value of protein as the only
source of nitrogen to an animal and assess the weight gain .
Following Indicates are used to assess the nutritional value of
protein.
1:-Bilogical value of protein
2:-Net protein utilization
3:-Net dietery protein
4:-Protein efficiency ration
Biological value (BV) of protein
This template can change color, shape
It is the radio between the amount of nitrogen retained and nitrogen
absorbed during a special interval.
Retain nitrogen ? 100
BV= -----------------------------------------------
Absorbed nitrogen
Suppose 127mg of a particular protein was consumed by a rat in a
day and 4mg is recoved in feces and 24mg is seen in urine. Then
Amount invested= 127mg
Amount absorbed= 127-4 = 123mg
Amount retained = 99/123?100= 81%
>Net protein utilization (NPU)
NPU= retained nitrogen/intake of nitrogen?100 in the above example.
NPU of protein "A"=99/127?100= 78%
and for protein "B" it is 4.5/100?100=4.5%
Thus NPU is a better index than BV to denote nutritional quality and
availability of protein ( table 36.12)
>Net dietary protein value (NDPV)
This will assess both quality and quality of the protein in diets.
NDPV= Intake of N?6.25? NPU
> Protein Efficiency Ratio or PER
It is the weight gain per gram of protein take. The essential amino
acid content can also be expressed in terms of chemical score ( mg
of amino acid per gram of protein). By comparing the chemical
score of different proteins with egg protein, the essential amino acid
content can be assessed.
