The formation of the fatty liver, the growth of rats and their nitrogen balance, through the addition of DL-methionine, L-lysine, L-threonine, and L-tryptophan to rice protein dietwere investigated.
(1) The rice protein diet with 0.36% DL-methionine caused the fatty liver. The additionof 0.4% L-lysine HCl, 0.3% L-threonine, and 0.1% L-tryptophan promoted the growth andinhibited the formation of the fatty liver.
(2) The content of rice protein had a certain relation with the formation of the fattyliver. But in case of 10% or 15% protein level this was not evident.
(3) The enriched protein content and the improvement of the amino acid compositionin diet were found to increase the nitrogen content in the liver.
