Abstract
To determine the effect of the quality of dietary protein on the fat absorption, we measured the fat absorption rate in the rats fed with diets containing gelatin, gluten, and casein, respectively. The fat absorption rate was highest in casein diet, and it was followed by gluten and gelatin diets.
To determine the effect of riboflavin supplement on fat absorption, we measured the fat absorption rate in the rats to which were administered orally three different amounts of riboflavin (0, 2.5, 25.0γ/day) . The fat absorption rate was somewhat increased by the supplement of riboflavin.
