Extract

1. The biological value of proteins at an 8% level of protein intake measured on rats by the method of Mitchell (7, 10) was 52 for white bread of 73% extraction, 76 for Cheddar cheese, 75 for a mixture of both foods when each supplied 50% of the protein, and 67 when the two sources of protein were given on alternate days. The true digestibilities were, respectively, 99, 100, 98 and 99.

2. Similar experiments with dried skim milk and dried cooked potatoes yielded biological values of 71 for potato, 89 for milk, 86 for the mixture and 81 for the substances fed separately on alternate days. The true digestibilities were, respectively, 82, 90, 82 and 87.

3. An attempt to carry out experiments of the same type with dried whey and dried potato failed because of deaths of some rats receiving the whey diet, probably because of its high content of lactose. A biological value of 76 was obtained for the potato proteins and of 70 for a mixture of whey and potato in which whey supplied 25% of the protein. The true digestibilities were, respectively, 82 and 68.

4. The biological value and the true digestibility of the proteins of a sample of edible soya-bean flour were, respectively, 73 and 90.

5. It is concluded that there is a marked supplementary relationship between the proteins of milk and potato and those of bread and cheese when the members of each pair supply equal amounts of protein and when they are given together. No supplementary relationship is exhibited when the sources of protein are given separately on alternate days.
