Lysine requirement of healthy, school-aged Indian children determined by the indicator amino acid oxidation technique.
We recently reported the lysine requirement of school-aged children living in Canada consuming a mixed diet to be 35 mg.kg(-1).d(-1). Because the majority of children in the world live on cereal-based diets in developing countries, we measured the daily lysine requirement in healthy children living in India and consuming a mostly cereal-based diet. Our objective in this study was to determine t...
متن کاملLysine requirement of healthy school-age children determined by the indicator amino acid oxidation method.
BACKGROUND The current Dietary Reference Intake (DRI) recommendations for lysine requirements in children are based on a factorial estimate. OBJECTIVE The objective of the current study was to determine the lysine requirement in healthy school-age children by measuring the oxidation of l-[1-(13)C]phenylalanine to (13)CO(2) (F(13)CO(2)) in response to graded intakes of lysine. DESIGN Five he...
متن کاملPhenylalanine requirement in children with classical PKU determined by indicator amino acid oxidation.
Dietary restriction of phenylalanine is the main treatment for phenylketonuria (PKU), and current estimates of requirements are based on plasma phenylalanine concentration and growth. The present study aimed to determine more precisely the phenylalanine requirements in patients with the disease by use of indicator amino acid oxidation, with L-[1-13C]lysine as the indicator.

متن کاملTryptophan requirement of growing swine as determined by the oxidation of an indicator amino acid.
The tryptophan requirement of growing swine was determined using the oxidation of L-[1-14C]-phenylalanine as an indicator of the adequacy of the dietary tryptophan level. Forty crossbred boars (30 to 45 kg) were fed a basal diet containing 16% protein supplied by corn and gelatin. A series of experimental diets containing .05, .08, .10, .15, .20 and .25% L-tryptophan were prepared. The diets we...
متن کاملEstimate of the variability of the lysine requirement of growing pigs using the indicator amino acid oxidation technique.
Although AA requirements for the mean in a population of growing pigs are well established, there are no direct estimates of their variability within the population. The indicator AA oxidation method allows repeated measurements in a short period of time so that the AA requirement can be determined for individual pigs. The objective was to determine the Lys requirement in individual pigs to der...
