Title: Nutritional efficiency of lucerne leaf protein as a source of -carotene in rat diets.
Abstract: The efficiency of lucerne leaf protein as a source of Il-carotene in rat diets was studied. Both
in a 6-week growth experiment with male weanling rats and in another I8-day experiment on·
rehabilitation of male and female rats with early symptoms of vitamin A deficiency, the leaf
protein used as a Il-carotene supplement was found to be as good as synthetic Il-carotene at
comparable pigment levels.
