Dietetic research of infant nutrition and protein efficiency ratio for some infant formulas from Croatian market
The aim of this work was to establish the state of infant nutrition mode in Croatia, with special regard to nutrition quality parameter protein efficiency ratio (PER) of the most used infant formulas. Methods included dietetic survey (n=255 mothers of infants) in urban area and PER (protein efficiency ratio) determination in vivo by rats and infants for the most used infant formulas on Croatian market. Results of dietetic survey showed that almost half examinees (49.4%) claim that their infants are exclusively breastfed. Significant amount of examinees (33.3%) was used mixed breast-and-formula fed for their infants. There are also 17.3% mothers whose infants is exclusively formula fed. According to PER values in infants, Samples 1-4 had very similar quality (PER 2.01-2.36). PER values in rats varies from 1.34 to 3.36. In spite of different PER values for infants and rats, these differences are not statistically significant (p<0.05), therefore it can be presume that both methods could be used equally.
