The nutritive value of biscuits protein-enriched with soy-bean meal. 1976

I Gontzea, and F Popescu

The researches were carried out on 4 groups of 15 weanling rats and 2 groups of 8 adult rats "pair fed" in individual cages, with a complete isocaloric and isoproteic (10%) diet, the nitrogenous material being supplied for one group from casein, for another from gluten and for the two others this was supplemented with soy-bean meal (5 or 10%). The results obtained in the growth test and in adult rats (nitrogen balance) show that the incorporation of soy-bean into the gluten biscuits increased the gain in weight and the PER lowering the consumption index (p less than 0.001), and doubled the nitrogen retention.

D005527	Food, Fortified	Any food that has been supplemented with essential NUTRIENTS either in quantities that are greater than those normally present, or which are not found in the food typically.
