Published 1979Staff ViewISSN: 1433-8580Keywords: Plasma amino acid ; Protein quality ; Weaning food ; Preschool childrenSource: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000Topics: MedicineNotes: Summary The plasma amino acid response to single test meals was studied in preschool children, aged 9 months–5 years. The amount of protein given in each test meal was 1 g per kg body weight, which represented one-third of the daily intake of the children who were recovering from protein-energy malnutrition. The test meals given was gruels made from wheat mixed with a supplementary weaning food (Faffa or Superamin) or fish protein concentrate (FPC). The plasma amino acid responses were evaluated both as PAA ratios (a modification of the Longenecker and Hause method), and as ΔMR% (percentage change in the postprandial essential amino acid molar ratios according to Graham and Placko). Both evaluation models indicated that lysine, threonine and methionine were the limiting amino acids in the Faffa/wheat diet, and that lysine and threonine were limiting in the Superamin/wheat diet. All essential amino acids seemed to be supplied in adequate amounts in the FPC/wheat diet. These results were in close agreement with the amino acid score of the diets (based on chemical analysis).Type of Medium: Electronic ResourceURL: -

ISSN: 1432-1041Keywords: streptomycin ; tuberculosis ; malnutrition ; pharmacokinetics ; childrenSource: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000Topics: Chemistry and PharmacologyMedicineNotes: Summary Fifty-six malnourished Ethiopian children with tuberculosis classified in four nutrional groups (normal, underweight, marasmus and kwashiorkor), were given streptomycin 20 or 30 mg·kg−1 i.m. The plasma concentration-time data revealed an increased apparent volume of distribution in children with kwashiorkor compared to normals. The total plasma clearance was low and did not differ between the nutrional groups. Thus, the half-life was prolonged only in kwashiorkor. The results could be explained by decreased protein binding in plasma and decreased renal clearance by glomerular filtration.Type of Medium: Electronic ResourceURL:
