Nutritional Improvement of Food and Feed Proteins edited by Mendel Friedman.

The nutritional quality of a protein depends on the proportion of its amino acids-especially the essential amino acids-their physio­ logical availability, and the specific requirements of the consumer. Availability varies and depends on protein source, interaction with other dietary components, and...
