2012-04-01
Abstract excerpt
The origin of Jatropha curcas L. is in Central America, probably Mexico, although it is also distributed in South America, Africa and Asia. In Mexico, it grows as nontoxic and toxic J. curcas genotypes. In this work, the protein quality including protein efficiency ratio (PER), net protein ratio (NPR) and true digestibility (TD) of nontoxic genotype defatted flour was assessed using Wistar rats. The probed diets c...
