title: Influence of vitamin A form and protein nature on the retinol status in the rat.
abstract: In comparison with soybean proteins, the acid casein increases the blood and liver concentrations of retinol when the diet contains 1 mg of retinol/kg. The effect of the acid casein is more important when the vitamin A is supplied to rats as retinal: with the alcohol form, the amount of liver retinol is 88.7 micrograms; with the aldehyde form, it reaches 137 micrograms.
