Application

Application Comment Organism
nutrition rats fed a casein-based diet lacking folate exhibit a 53% increase in circulating homocysteine concentrations compared with rats fed a casein-based diet including folate. Serum homocysteine does not differ between rats fed casein-based diet including folate and egg protein-based diet lacking folate. Hepatic BHMT activity is increased by 45% and 40% by the egg protein-based diet and whole egg-based diet compared with the casein-based diets, respectively Rattus norvegicus
