Abstract
Influence of vibration (frequency 12-13/sec., amplitude 1.6-6.8mm, for seven hours daily) on protein metabolism of white rats fed on normal-protein (16%) and low-protein (10%) diets was observed for six weeks.
Results shows that under the vibration the nitrogen balance is much more positive in the case of the normal-protein diet than in low-protein diet.
In other words, in such a abnormal environment, the animal needs enough protein in order to reach full growth.
