Stable Isotope Method to Assess Dietary Protein Quality

Summary

The evaluation of protein quality has been identified as the top priority question by the Food and Agricultural Organization (FAO) of the United Nations. However, the current available methods do not precisely estimate protein quality, or need invasive procedures. The proposed 'dual tracer approach' is a non-invasive method to evaluate protein quality in humans.

The present project characterizes the use of 15N-intrinsically-labelled milk protein as a reference-protein for development a non-invasive method that can be used to assess protein quality in human subjects
