W. OnOSON, DIRECTOR Vol. 9, No. 10, April 1977 FROM THE DIRECTOR'S DESK At no time during the past 15 years has there been more discussion at national levels about agricultural research. There are several reasons for this; international conferences on world population, and on world food, have raised questions about the ability of the world's food producers to meet future food needs and demands of this population. The convergenc~ of factors which led to the food supply-price situation of 1973-74 threw an additional scare into the minds of policy makers concerned with these issues. Admittedly, the apparent "crisis" has eased off for the moment with higher levels of stocks and lower prices, but the basic long-run concern about food production continues. There seems to be a consensus in these discussions that the most important factor contributing to long-term growth in agricultural productivity has been technological change.

    J. Nutr. Sci. Vitaminol., 23, 481-489 1977 NIACIN AND PANTOTHENIC ACID EXCRETIONS OF HUMANS FED A LOW-METHIONINE, PLANT-BASED DIET1,2 Mary L. DUKE,3 Constance KIES,4 and Hazel M. FOX5 Department of Food and Nutrition, University of Nebraska, Lincoln, Nebraska 68583 (Received April 25, 1977) Summary The addition of a vitamin to a diet of humans has been shown to increase the excretion of that vitamin. The effects of an increase of one vitamin on another have not been investigated. The objective of the current project was to compare the effects of two supplementation patterns on the niacin and pantothenic acid excretion values of humans consuming a peanut butter-based diet. Two groups each received one of two supplementation regimens. One group received niacin, a multi vitamin, or no supplement. One group received methionine alone, pantothenic acid alone or methionine plus pantothenic acid. The addition of either vitamin resulted in increased excretion of that vitamin. Urinary niacin excretion of the group that received pantothenic acid and/or methionine was greater than that observed with a multi-vitamin or no supplement. Urinary pantothenic acid excretion was suppressed when niacin was a supplement. Urinary pantothenic acid excretion of the methionine supplement group was greater than the excretion of the groups which received either niacin or multi-vitamin supplements. These data suggest some possible dangers in indiscriminate supplemen tation of food products. Pantothenic acid and niacin are both known to be essential to metabolic processes, as a part of NAD and NADP and acetyl Coenzyme A (1-10). While these two vitamins operate independently of one another, an indirect relationship 1 Supported by funds from Nebraska Agricultural Research Station Project 91-007 and C.

    INFORMATION TO USERS This was produced from a copy of a document sent to us for microfilming. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the material submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or notations which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting through an image and duplicating adjacent pages to assure you of complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a round black mark it is an indication that the film inspector noticed either blurred copy because of movement during exposure, or duplicate copy. Unless we meant to delete copyrighted materials that should not have been filmed, you will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. If copyrighted materials were deleted you will find a target note listing the pages in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., is part of the material being photo­ graphed the photographer has followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material. It is customary to begin filming at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue from left to right in equal sections with small overlaps. If necessary, sectioning is continued again—beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete.

Mean nitrogen balances of ten human adults fed 4.0 g. N per day from the wheat grain plus no amino acid supplement, plus T-lysine, plus L.tryptophan, plus L-methionine, or plus a combination of the listed amino acids, were -0.68, +0.05, -0.64, -0.69, and +0.10 g. N per day, respectively. Nitrogen balances of nine human adults fed 4.0 g. N per day from the triticale grain plus no amino acid supplement; plus L-lysine, plus L-tryptophan, plus L-methionine, or plus a cor bination of all three listed amino acids, were -0.59, +0.11, -0.24, -0.4l,and +0.27 g.
