Soybean Protein as a Source of Amino Acids for the Chick

Division of Poultry Husbandry, University of California, College of Agriculture, Berkeley

1. Raw and heated soybean protein were studied as the sole source of protein in a chick diet.

2. The principal growth-limiting deficiency in raw soybean protein is that of methionine.

3. Heated soybean protein is slightly deficient in methionine for the chick at the 20% protein level, but is complete in respect to all other amino acids required by the chick.
