Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Protein Digestibility measures of intrinsically 2H labeled egg and poultry meat protein in healthy adult humans using the dual tracer approachTimepoint: Blood sampling time points for digestibility measurement include half hourly once from 5th hour to 8th hour | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Comparison between the mean digestibilities of the two methods of egg protein processed test meal fed to the subjectsTimepoint: Average of 7 blood time point enrichment values will be taken for digestibility calculation and compared between two methods of processing;Determination of the functional status of the intestine using plasma kynurenine and KT ratio to rule of any effect of poor intestinal health on the digestibilityTimepoint: Basal (1 time point) plasma sample will be used for analysis and determination of plasma kynurenine and KT ratio;Determine the influence of tea polyphenol on whole egg individual true ileal digestibilityTimepoint: Average of 7 time points plasma enrichment values will be used for digestibility calculation and a comparison between true ileal IAA digestibility of egg with and without tea polyphenol will be made | — |
