Knowledge of the magnitude of the endogenous losses of fecal and urinary nitrogen is essential for the calculation of protein requirements by the factorial approach. In the present paper data for children are presented on endogenous losses in the feces and urine, that is, under conditions of nitrogen free feeding. In addition we have studied the losses of fecal nitrogen from different dietary protein sources (animal, vegetable and mixed) and various levels of intake. Apparent and true digestibility values were thereby derived and are reported here.
The studies were conducted in the Unit for Metabolic studies of INCAP. The subjects were boys ranging in chronological age from 23 to 74 months, completely recovered from malnutrition. Criteria for accepting them in the study included: (a) body weight/height above 95% of the 50th percentile of Stuart for the child's height; (b) fully repleted lean body mass as judged by a creatinine-height index above 0.95; (c) absence of any clinical or biochemical evidence of disease. In many children tested, as well as in other fully recovered children, basal oxygen consumption was measured, and found the same as for normal children of the same height.
The diets were quantitatively prepared in the metabolic kitchen and were designed to provide no protein, or variable quantities of the various proteins, but always sufficient amounts of calories and nutrients to meet the subjects' recommended intakes. Fecal and urine specimens were collected for three consecutive days for each determination.
The content of nitrogen in the prepared diets and fecal specimens was determined in the laboratory by direct analyses of representative aliquots, using the Kjeldahl method. "Actual Intake" was computed. That is, losses due to vomiting, refusal, etc, were determined and substracted.
The results are based on 67 independent determinations on 12 subjects ranging in age from 23-74 months. The data expressed as mg nitrogen per kilogram of body weight per day gives an average of 24.6 (± SE = 1.0). Since there is a relatively wide range of body weights and ages the dependance of the fecal losses on these variables was investigated. It was found that the fecal nitrogen/kg/d decreases with body weight (regression coefficient = -0.28). One would expect, normally a similar correlation with age. However the regression coefficient obtained between fecal nitrogen and chronological age was much smaller (-0.07). The reason is that since our subjects had previously suffered from malnutrition their biological age did not really match their chronological age. When height-age was used a better negative relationship was observed (N = 66; regression coefficient = -0.34; average = 25.0 ± SE = 0.96).
This fact unveils the error introduced by the WHO/FAO Expert Group when they fixed the losses of fecal nitrogen all along the age scale as 20 mg/kg/d.
The fact that basal calories/kg/d are also inversely correlated with biological age is compatible with a constant relationship between endogenous losses of fecal nitrogen and calories (as used by NRC), and emphasizes the soundness of this concept.
The regression between height-age and endogenous fecal nitrogen per basal calorie was calculated and is shown in Figure 1. It can be seen that, indeed, the ratio of endogenous fecal nitrogen to basal calories is constant with age (regression coefficient = 0.0003) with a value of 0.48 mg nitrogen per basal calorie (S.D. = 0.14; coefficient of variation = 29%). An interesting feature of these data is the large variability observed, which is greater within child than between children.
Urinary endogenous nitrogen per kilogram of body weight per day was negatively correlated with body weight (regression coefficient = -0.25) and with height-age (regression coefficient = -0.52). On the other hand, the excretion of urinary nitrogen per basal calorie (see Figure 2) is constant with height-age (regression coefficient = 0.0073) giving an average value of 1.232 mg/b.Cal/day; S.D. = 0.274; coefficient of variation = 22%.
Total fecal nitrogen was measured using the techniques described, in 125 children who were receiving various protein intakes from 18 different sources. These included 4 animal sources, 4 single-vegetable sources, 4 vegetable mixtures, and 6 vegetable mixtures containing powdered milk which contributed from 9 to 18% of the total nitrogen.
Tables I to V present the total fecal nitrogen excreted at various levels of intake for each source, grouped into the four greater categories described above. Regression equations for various nitrogen intake levels were calculated for each protein source and for the total data for each of the four greater categories.
In the case of milk it was found that fecal nitrogen excretion increased rapidly when milk protein intake was greater than 2.75 grams per kilogram per day (440 mg nitrogen/kg/day). Therefore, the linear regression for the animal protein category was calculated taking into consideration only the fecal nitrogen values for milk protein intakes below 440 mg/kg/day.
It is clear that, as expected, fecal nitrogen excretion increases with intake. However, the smallest slope is found for the animal protein category (regression coefficient = 0.07), and the greatest for the single vegetable sources as a whole (regression coefficient = 0.24). Vegetable mixtures have slopes which resemble the latter (regression coefficient = 0.18), the addition of animal protein tending to lower it slightly (regression coefficient = 0.15).
Tables V to XII present the average ± S.E. of total and "exogenous" fecal nitrogen excretion for various intake levels of each protein source. "Exogenous" fecal nitrogen has been calculated by substracting the average endogenous fecal nitrogen to the total fecal nitrogen at the various intake levels. We believe this is justified since it was impractical to determine endogenous fecal nitrogen in each child tested, and since the variability of this parameter was greater within a child than between children.
From these data it is evident that "exogenous" fecal nitrogen from animal sources contributes insignificantly to the total fecal nitrogen at nitrogen intake levels close to the nitrogen requirements. As an average, at 100 mg/kg/d nitrogen intake only 4 mg/kg/d are of exogenous origin. This is 14% of the total expected fecal nitrogen at that level of intake. This is not the case for vegetable proteins as a whole, which at the same level of intake would contribute 36% of the total fecal nitrogen (14/38.6 mg/kg/d).
Finally, apparent and "true" digestibility for each source of protein at various intake levels was calculated by the following formula:
Results are shown in Tables XIII to XVI. It is evident that animal protein as a group has a high digestibility while vegetable mixtures have the lowest values as a group. The incorporation of animal protein to vegetable mixtures appears to have a beneficial effect. As expected, digestibility is essentially constant for each protein source, independent of intake, with the notable exceptions of lower digestibility for milk fed at high levels (above 3.0 g protein/kg/d), and corn which progressively decreases its digestibility (tested at intakes between 239 and 461 mg of nitrogen/kg/d).
