 In: Cereal Foods World v. 36, no. 9, p. 806-81192-008657Summary: In this article I will review research results on the protein quality of high-lysine maize, first by presenting essential amino acid content of normal and high-lysine maize. Amino acid scores will indicate which are the limiting amino acids, and experimental evidence in rats will be presented to confirm such indications. The remainder of the article will review the results of clinical studies on the protein quality of high-quality protein maize with young and adult human subjects
