They are called AIN-93G, formulated for growth, and AIN-93M, for maintenance. Major changes included substituting cornstarch for sucrose and soybean oil for corn oil and increasing the amount in order to supply both essential fatty acids (linoleic...
متن کاملAIN-93 purified diets for laboratory rodents: final report of the American Institute of Nutrition ad hoc writing committee on the reformulation of the AIN-76A rodent diet.
For sixteen years, the American Institute of Nutrition Rodent Diets, AIN-76 and AIN-76A, have been used extensively around the world.

Our review [1] was intended to provide guidance on current established therapies rather than consider potential future treatment options and hence we did not include a comment relevant to this interesting but, as yet, unproven treat...
متن کاملComparisons of the iron deficient metabolic response in rats fed either an AIN-76 or AIN-93 based diet
UNLABELLED BACKGROUND Previous studies examining the metabolic consequences of dietary iron deficiency have reported elevated serum glucose concentrations in iron-deficient animals. Importantly, the majority of these findings were observed using an earlier version of a laboratory animal diet (AIN-76A) in which the primary carbohydrate source was sucrose - a disaccharide known to negatively i...
متن کاملInfluence of AIN-93 diet on mortality and cardiac remodeling after myocardial infarction in rats.
BACKGROUND The AIN-93 diet was proposed by the American Institute of Nutrition with the objective of standardising studies in experimental nutrition. Our objective was to analyze the effects of AIN-93 diet after myocardial infarction in rats. METHODS Post weaning, the animals were divided into two groups: control (C, n=62), fed the standard diet of our laboratory (Labina); AIN-93 Group (n=70)...
