Amino Acid Adequacy in Pathophysiological States

Role of amino acid transporters in amino acid sensing.

Amino acid (AA) transporters may act as sensors, as well as carriers, of tissue nutrient supplies. This review considers recent advances in our understanding of the AA-sensing functions of AA transporters in both epithelial and nonepithelial cells. These transporters mediate AA exchanges between extracellular and intracellular fluid compartments, delivering substrates to intracellular AA sensor...

Amino acid requirements and amino acid supply in the sheep.

The special features of nitrogen metabolism in ruminants, which stem from the extensive breakdown and synthesis of dietary protein in the rumen (see Hungate, 1966), imply the absence of a specific dietary requirement for essential amino acids. Nevertheless, there is considerable theoretical and practical interest in defining the amino acid requirements of ruminant tissues in animals of known nu...

Pathophysiological Approach to Acid Base Disorders

wind farm impact on generation adequacy in power systems

در سال های اخیر به دلیل افزایش دمای متوسط کره زمین، بشر به دنبال روش های جایگزین برای تامین توان الکتریکی مورد نیاز خود بوده و همچنین در اکثر نقاط جهان سوزاندن سوخت های فسیلی در نیروگاه های حرارتی به عنوان مهم ترین روش تولید توان الکتریکی مطرح بوده است. به دلیل توجه به مسایل زیست محیطی، استفاده از منابع انرژی تجدید پذیر در سال های اخیر شدت یافته است. نیروگاه های بادی به عنوان یک منبع تولید توان...

Dietary Formulation with Poultry by-Product Meal on a Total Amino Acid vs. a Digestible Amino Acid Basis

Previous results indicated that performance of chicks fed a high level (10%) of poultry by-product meal(PBM) was lower than performance of chicks fed a corn-soybean meal (SBM) diet. The latter difference was hypothesized to be due to variation in digestible amino acid (AA) levels among the diets. This study evaluated diets containing PBM formulated on equivalent total AA basis vs. an equivalent...
