Department of Biochemistry and Nutrition, Women's College, Ains Shams University, Cairo, Egypt.

The protein quality of 4 Egyptian pastries made from different combinations of flour and fish protein concentrate (0%, 4% and 6%) was measured by rat growth study. Weight gain, feed consumption and PER were determined. Weight gain of rats fed cottage cheese crescents was higher than that fed date bars followed by that fed brouche, then rats fed salty sticks. Feed consumed by rats fed with the corresponding commercial pastries was low except in date bars group. Commercial pastries led to low weight gain and low PER values. Supplementing wheat flour with 6% fish protein concentrate gave the highest weight gain and the highest PER values.

D009753	Nutritive Value	An indication of the contribution of a food to the nutrient content of the diet. This value depends on the quantity of a food which is digested and absorbed and the amounts of the essential nutrients (protein, fat, carbohydrate, minerals, vitamins) which it contains. This value can be affected by soil and growing conditions, handling and storage, and processing.
