Study of absorption and retention of nitrogen in fast growing rats--II. Influence of IMAO (nialamide).
A study was made in fast growing rats (65 g) of the nutritive effects of protein and the effect on different organs when influenced by nialamide (IMAO), administered at a dosage of 10 mg/100 g diet, with food intake controlled (pair fed). The administration of nialamide reduces the protein absorbed and retained to a significant degree, both in males and females. No difference was observed between the sexes caused by the effect of the drug, due to the absence of the hormonal anabolizant situation caused by testosterone in adult rats. The administration of nialamide does not significantly modify nitrogen content per 100 g of body weight in any of the organs studied, with the exception of the longissimus dorsi.
