The supplementary effect between the proteins of a heat-treated soybean meal ("Soma Meal") and a South African strain of yellow maize seed ("Eksteen")

Abstract

1. The proteins of an improved yellow maize strain popular in South Africa and that of a heat-treated soybean meal, supplemented each other to a small extent. 2. There was no determinable difference in the digestion or metabolism of the protein, when either the Hubbel or the Hawk and Oser Salt Mixtures were used in the rations with identical proteins.
