Description

we offer keto analogue of amino acid methionine, calcium salt and CALCIUM-DL-2-HYDROXY-4-(METHYLTHIO)-BUTYRATE (ALPHA-HYDROXY ANALOGUE OF METHIONINE, CALCIUM SALT CAS-4857-44-7 Alpha keto-analogues of valine, leucine, isoleucine, methionine, phenylalanine, and (in one instance) tryptophan and histidine, along with the remaining essential amino acids, were administered orally to 10 patients with severe chronic uremia fed a diet low in protein but adequate in calories. Ketoanalogues of amino acids (KAs) are nitrogen-free analogs of essential amino acids. “Ketodiet” refers to a variety of KA and low-protein diets (LPDs; 0.6 g/kg per day) or very-low-protein diets (VLPDs; 0.3–0.4 g/kg per day), which allow a reduced intake of nitrogen while avoiding the deleterious consequences of inadequate dietary protein intake and malnourishment
