Sequence of Limiting Amino Acids in Gelatin for the Growing Chick

Abstract: Several 6-day growth assays were conducted to delineate the amino acid limitations of gelatin for chick growth. At a dietary level of 14.5% crude protein, gelatin was observed to be severely deficient in nine essential amino acids. Tryptophan, sulfur amino acids and isoleucine were first, second and third limiting, respectively. Aromatic amino acids, threonine and valine were found to be equally fourth limiting, while leucine, histidine and lysine were seventh, eighth and ninth limiting, respectively. Arginine… Show more

“…Sesame meal is deficient in lysine and it has been shown that it can support good performance in chicks when supplemented with lysine (Griminger and Scott, 1959). Gelatin has been shown to be deficient in most of the essential amino acids (Boomgaardt and Baker, 1972) and it is particularly low in tryptophan, the sulfur amino acids and isoleucine. Results of a preliminary assay (Table 2) using the 23% protein diet with no added lysine or methionine showed that lysine and methionine were severely deficient in this diet and that chicks were able to gain well on the supplemented diet.…”

“…The remaining indispensable amino acids were evidently present at about the same relative abundance. A great number of treatments are usually required in other proposed methods (Fisher, 1965;Ashley & Fisher, 1966;Boomgaardt & Baker. 1972;Lewis et al, 1965).…”

“…Because of their high collagen content and poor amino acid balance, any increase in bone content in the raw materials may have a negative effect on protein quality. Collagen and gelatin (refined collagen) are deficient in most essential amino acids, such as tryptophan, sulfur amino acids, and isoleucine, whereas they oversupply hydroxyproline, proline, and glycine (Boomgaardt and Baker, 1972;Berdanier, 1998). The amino acid profile of the Daka-40 tested showed that this source contained a high amount of collagen.…”
