Abstract
Exclusive breastfeeding is the recommended feeding for all infants. Recent research has focused on the importance of balanced feeding during the first 1000 days, starting at conception with a balanced diet of the pregnant woman, up to the age of two years. The following step, a balanced diet after the age of two years is a challenge, as the dietary intake becomes more diversified. The role of young-child formula in this process is debated. This paper discusses the use of planted-based drinks, since they are a valuable and progressively more popular alternative for cow's milk, if nutritionally adapted to the requirements of toddlers. Plant-based drinks are per definition lactose free.

Abstract
The nitrogen pool of piglets weighing 19.4 +/- 1.4 kg at the beginning of the experiment was labeled with an oral application of ([15N]H4)2SO4 (1.26 [15N]-atom percent excess of dietary N) over a period of 7 d. The labeling period was followed by an equilibration period of 7 d without feeding the labeling compound. The two experimental diets were based on wheat (53%) and rye (25%) and were fed either with or without a xylanase containing enzyme preparation over both experimental periods. Additionally, diets were supplemented with an indigestible marker during the 2nd period of the experiment to allow the calculation of endogenous N-losses in subsequent segments of the digestive tract of the pigs. These endogenous N-losses were estimated at the end of the experiment by analyzing feces, ingesta and urine for [15N]-enrichment assuming that [15N]-enrichment of urine represents the [15N]-enrichment of the precursor pool. Endogenous N-losses were not significantly affected by xylanase addition at any measurement site (stomach, 3 sections of the small intestine, total digestive tract). Endogenous N-proportions of total nitrogen amounted on average for the six pigs to 42 +/- 11% and 56 +/- 5% at the last section of the small intestine and over the whole digestive tract, respectively, which corresponded to endogenous N-losses of 2.8 +/- 1.3 g N/kg DM and 2.0 +/- 0.3 g N/kg DM, respectively.

Abstract
Male broilers were given a low protein diet (15.5% CP) spiked with [15N]H4HCO3 from day 12 to day 18 of age to label the endogenous N-constituents. Experimental diets were subsequently fed from day 19 to day 24 of age and consisted of a rye based diet (56% dietary inclusion) which contained either 10% soya oil (S) or 10% beef tallow (T), each of which was either unsupplemented (-) or supplemented (+) with a xylanase containing enzyme preparation (2700 IU/kg at pH 5.3). [15N]-atom percent excess (APE) of excreta, faeces and urine were monitored on a daily basis during both experimental periods. Furthermore, APE was measured in various tissues at the end of the experiment. The APE of urine on the last day of the experiment was between the APE of the pancreas and that of the jejunal tissue, an observation which supported the usefulness of using urinary APE as an indicator for the endogenous N-pool. Endogenous N-proportions were estimated by an isotope dilution technique at the end of the experiment by examination of the ratio of APE in faeces and urine. The endogenous N-proportion in the faeces was greatest in birds receiving the T(-) diet. The proportions were 0.321, 0.319, 0.451 and 0.289 in S(-), S(+), T(-) and T(+) fed groups, respectively. Xylanase addition reduced endogenous N-proportion, a factor which was used to correct apparent crude protein digestibility (85.6, 86.2, 84.3 and 88.5% in S(-), S(+), T(-) and T(+) fed birds, respectively) for endogenous losses resulting in almost equal true digestibilities of crude protein for all treatments (90.3, 90.6, 90.4 and 91.5%). The amounts of endogenous N in faces were estimated to be 87, 69, 244 and 81 mg per day per kg0.67 body weight in S(-), S(+), T(-) and T(+) fed birds, respectively. It was concluded that xylanase supplementation of a rye based broiler diet does not change endogenous N-secretions when the supplemental fat is soya oil. However, addition of tallow rather than soya oil increased these N-losses significantly, an effect which was reversed by xylanase addition.

Abstract
The estimated value of true digestibility of food and feed proteins is in dependence from the excretion of metabolic faecal nitrogen (MFN). Results of many authors showed that a high fibre content of the diet increase the MFN-excretion and lower the true digestibility of the diet protein. The exact estimation of MFN is only possible with isotopic methods. The labelling of feed proteins with isotopic nitrogen (15N) is possible in experiments with small animals. In big animals (pigs) the utilization of recycled 15N is too high following the long transit time of non digested 15N-labelled feed protein and the parallel 15N-labelling of MFN. The best method for the estimation of true digestibility of proteins is the method with 15N-labelled animals and the differentiation between nonlabelled undigested feed protein and the 15N-labelled MFN in faeces. The estimation of digestibility of essential amino acids at the end of the ileum as a measure for protein quality is not in advantage because the bacterial breakdown and synthesis of amino acids in the small intestine is unknown. The estimation of the biological value (BV) of proteins with the classical method is useful when the exact MFN was determined. The classic formula of BV [formula: see text] is only applicable in experiments with growing animals with nitrogen retention. This result of BV value is in agreement with the method only valid for growing animals with N-retention and not for animals or human beings in maintenance. The measurement of a BV of proteins with animals in maintenance is possible when the animals are labelled with 15N. The 15N-loss of the animal after the feeding of different protein sources is the smallest when the amino acid pattern of the protein is adapted to the need of amino acids for the maintenance metabolism of the animal. It was found that proteins with a high content of glutamic and aspartic acid (proteins of grains) are better proteins for the maintenance metabolism as animal proteins. Measurements with the method of the oxydation rate of essential amino acids showed that the amino acid pattern of wheat protein is in agreement with the need of amino acids for maintenance of the adult men. The evaluation of protein quality in animal nutrition for growing or lactating monogastric animals is in the present time the balance of essential amino acids in the feed protein and the need of this amino acids of the animals.

Abstract
In a preexperiment of 12 days fishes (Cyprinus carpio L.) were labelled with 15N by means of 15NH4Cl and 15N-urea resp. in the aquarium water and by feeding a protein free diet. 15NH4Cl yielded a higher atom-% 15N excess (15N') in the tissues of fishes. In the main experiment 75 fishes (Cyprinus carpio L.) were 15N-labelled with 100 mg 15N'/l water from 15NH4Cl (95 atom-% 15N') in a protein free preperiod of 12 days. In the following main period the fishes received different protein sources in their diets in maintenance. A group of 20 fishes received an animal protein (fish meal) and two groups of 20 fishes each received plant proteins (soybean meal and wheat gluten resp.). The atom-% 15N' reached after the 15N-labelling period following values: digestive tract with content--7.15, liver--5.65, gills--5.89, muscle--0.81 and chorda dorsalis--1.09 respectively. During the main period (with protein feeding) the atom-% 15N' decreased in the tissues with high protein turnover (liver and gills) on the 2nd and 4th day to 4.31 +/- 0.11 (animal protein) and 4.64 +/- 0.14 (plant proteins) in average. The corresponding values in the tissues with low protein turnover (muscle and chorda dorsalis) were 0.73 +/- 0.04 and 0.80 +/- 0.04 atom-% 15N' in average. From the measurements on the 6th, 8th and 10th day of protein feeding resulted an atom-% 15N' in average of liver and gills of 4.08 +/- 0.13 (animal protein) and 4.11 +/- 0.15 (plant proteins). In muscle and chorda dorsalis the atom-% 15N' ascended in this time upon 0.80 +/- 0.04 (animal protein) and 0.90 +/- 0.03 (plant proteins). It seems that the protein metabolism of fishes is favoured from the amino acid of plant protein in comparison to animal protein to reduce the 15N-loss of the 15N-labelled body in maintenance, like the results from experiments with rats (Hernandez et al., 1981).

Abstract
N intake in the form of protein has neither got an upper nor a lower limit for agricultural working animals within a diet and there is no control mechanism for it. A high surplus of certain amino acids results in a reduction of feed intake. N excretion in faeces depends on 1) the excretion of N containing indigestible feedstuffs, 2) bacterial nitrogen synthesis in the large intestine and 3) the excretion of true endogenous N containing substances (digestion enzymes, intestinal epithelium, N containing endogenous secretion). There are no other control mechanisms for N excretion in faeces. N excretion in urine mainly comprises the nitrogen from the degeneration of amino acids and nucleic acids. The interrelations between urea, NH3, allantoin, creatine and creatinine, uric acid and hippuric acid depend on the species (monogastric or ruminants), on the nitrogen and N amount consumed and on the recycling ratio of the amino acids. The absolute amount of N excretion is not subject to any control mechanism, it depends on the intake of protein and NPN substances, the interim stages, however, which lead to the formation of excretory products, are intermediately controlled. The most important interim stage is protein biosynthesis, which is a fixed, intermediately controlled value in maintenance level. Under growth conditions only, the protein synthesis quota can exceed the protein degradation quota of the total organism (positive N balance). The control mechanisms of protein biosynthesis have, according to current knowledge, the following structure: Stimulation: 1) growth hormone (STH) stimulates protein synthesis by means of somatomedins; 2) hormones of the thyroid gland (T4 and T3) are controlled by the hormone stimulating the thyroid gland (TSH); 3) insulin. Inhibition: 1) somatostatin inhibits STH, TSH and insulin; 2) cortisol directly inhibits protein synthesis and stimulates protein degradation. The control mechanisms of protein turnover in addition to genetic coding and proteolysis extend in the framework of evolution over the period of 3,400 million years from the existence of the bacterial cell to the development of mammals, which is 74% of the age of the earth and approximately 90% since the existence of the first traces of life. The control mechanisms of protein turnover in mammals do not permit gene manipulation in protein synthesis as in bacterial cells since the control mechanisms mentioned are missing there.

Abstract
Four 40 kg castrated male pigs fitted with simple 'T' cannulas in the terminal ileum were given 15N-labelled ammonium salts, added to a low protein diet, for 6 days. Excretion of 15N in urine and faeces was monitored daily throughout the labelling and subsequent experimental periods. During the experimental period the pigs were given a diet based on wheat and fish meal, supplemented with varying levels of partially hydrolysed straw meal to give crude fibre contents ranging from 40 to 132 g/kg. After adaptation to the particular levels of straw meal, faeces and ileal digesta were collected during successive 24 h periods. N digestibility values were determined by the chromic oxide ratio method. The retention of 15N labelled non-specific N was 0.46 of the dose given. The validity of using urine values as a measure of 15N abundance in endogenous N was demonstrated by the similarity of 15N abundance in urine immediately before slaughter at the end of the experiment and in the digestive secretory organs thereafter. The average amount of endogenous N passing the terminal ileum was 3.4 g/day or 0.30-0.50 of total ileal N flow. This was not affected by dietary fibre level. The proportion of faecal N which was of endogenous origin was similar to that in ileal digesta, suggesting similar utilization of endogenous and residual dietary N by hindgut bacteria. Half the endogenous N entering the large intestine was reabsorbed there. Increasing dietary crude fibre from 40 to 132 g/kg increased faecal endogenous N excretion from 1.3 to 2.0 g/animal and day.

Abstract
A short-chain 15N-peptide mixture characterized by an average chain length of 2.3 was obtained when 15N-labeled yeast protein has hydrolyzed enzymatically by thermitase from Thermoactinomyces vulgaris. Fifteen newborn Wistar-rats were given a single pulse of [15N]glycine. [15N]H4Cl and [15N]yeast protein-thermitasehydrolysate (YPTH) in a dosage of 50 mg 15N excess kg-1 by gastric tube. In comparison with [15N]glycine the 15N-incorporation rates of brain, muscle and liver were approximately 150% higher after [15N]YPTH-application. Uniform labeling, high 15N-enrichment, almost complete absorption, avoidance of imbalances and the low price make this tracer substance superior to other tracers conventionally used for organ labeling.

Abstract
With protein evaluation the changing abilities of food proteins are characterized with regard to their covering the requirements of the organism for protein or amino acids, respectively. The biological value of proteins is influenced by several factors. Measuring the reaction of the whole organism (of man or animal) to the food protein the sum of all influencing factors is covered. Hence, these direct evaluation methods have priority. The general dose-reaction curve demonstrates the direct evaluation methods: The evaluation criteria protein efficiency or minimum protein requirement are presented and the different possibilities of interpretion are compared. Most direct evaluation methods are performed with suboptimal protein supply, therefore values for an optimum protein supply can be derived only with reservation. Improved values for protein evaluation can be obtained from investigations of the protein metabolism. With that the substrat-related evaluation can be more orientated to a organism-related one. Indirect biochemical evaluation methods are less important. That does not concern in-vitro evaluation by amino-acid analysis and/or in-vitro digestibility tests. Possibilities and limits of these methods are discussed.

Abstract
By a treatment with a solution of detergent, subsequent sedimentation and centrifugation faeces samples taken from 12 growing female pigs were divided into: fraction A (coarse particles), fraction B (finer particles), fraction C (bacteria fraction). N-, AA- and diamino pimelic acid (DAP) analyses as well as microscopic analyses were carried out with the complete samples and the fractions. By means of fractioning, 55% of the faecal N and 80% of the DAP could be concentrated in fraction C, fraction A contained approximately 23% of the N and 20% of the DAP. From the DAP: N quotient of fraction C, which was 65 mg DAP/g N, a quota of nearly 70% bacteria-N in the total faecal N of the pigs was calculated.

Abstract
Male rats received in 8 groups of 10 animals each for a period of 7 days 7 synthetic diets and one semisynthetic diet on maintenance requirement level. A L-amino acid mixture corresponding to the pattern of egg protein without glutamic acid was the protein source of the synthetic diets. Glutamic acid was supplemented successively from 0 to 58 mol-% of the total amino acid content. The crude protein source of diet 8 was whole egg powder. On the 8th day of experiment 5 animals per group were labelled by intragastric infusion (i.g.) with 14C-U-glutamic acid. During the following 24 hours the excretion of CO2 and 14CO2 was measured. Throughout the experimental feeding body weight was relative constant, however, when the synthetic diets were fed it was necessary to increase the daily amount of energy from 460 to 480 kJ/kg0,67. The relative 14CO2-excretion within 24 hours was 68-75% of the dose. However, the main part of the amount of radioactivity excreted during 24 hours was found after 4 to 6 hours already. Exponential functions calculated from the data of cumulative 14CO2-excretion suggest the existence of a fast process of 14CO2-formation directly from 14C-glutamic acid, reaching a plateau within 2 hours and a slow process of oxidation of intermediates of glutamic acid metabolism, causing a continued 14CO2-formation even after 24 hours. The oxidation of 14C-glutamic acid to CO2 decreased 2 to 14 hours after i.g. labelling if the glutamic acid content of the diet increased. The same was found for the specific radioactivity of 14CO2. A storage of intermediates of glutamic acid before degradation was assumed.

Abstract
Chymostatin is an effective inhibitor of intracellular proteinases in vitro. In the present experiment male rats were injected intraperitonealy during a 3 days period twice daily with a solution containing 0,9 mg Chymostatin per 100 g live weight. Reference animals received a control injection containing the same solvents but no chymostatin. During this period a daily nitrogen balance was made and metabolic faecal nitrogen and true digestibility of nitrogen were estimated using 15N-labelled animals. Furthermore, apparent biological half lives of proteins in liver and intestinal tissues were determined following the decay curves for radioactivity in proteins 48 hours after injection of L-[5-3H]-arginine und L-[guanido-14C]-arginine. The fractional rate of protein synthesis in tissues was measured by a 6 hours continuous infusion technique with L-[U-14C]-tyrosine and L-[U-14C]-leucine. Among the parameters estimated only the apparent biological half lives of proteins in liver and intestinal tissues were influenced by chymostatin. However, the prolonged half lives seemed to be rather an effect of an increased reutilisation of amino acids resulting from the intracellular protein breakdown than a decreased rate of protein degradation. The in vivo effect of the proteinase inhibitor was by far inferior compared with the action in vitro. Factors like distribution, degradation and excretion of the inhibitor could be responsible for the moderate in vivo action of chymostatin.

Abstract
1. This paper reviews chemical and biological assays for measuring the quality of food proteins. 2. The availability of amino acids in a protein is determined by digestability and the capacity of the recipient animal to absorb the amino acids. 3. Intracellularly amino acid concentration influences enzyme activities associated with amino acid and nitrogen metabolism. 4. Amino acids utilized for metabolism affect the cells at the gene level: transcription of DNA to RNA and translation of RNA to protein. 5. More accurate measurements of amino acid utilization for metabolism will follow from further understanding of basic cellular metabolic events.
