Protein Digestibility Corrected Amino Acid Score Testing

By Editorial Team | Feb 13, 2023

Understanding PDCAAS PDCAAS is a scientific method used to evaluate the quality of a protein based on its amino acid content, corrected for its digestibility. It compares the amino acid profile of the food protein against a standard amino acid profile recommended...

The infographic above visually illustrates the concept of Protein Digestibility Corrected Amino Acid Score (PDCAAS) testing, including key components like a comparison chart for amino acid profiles, a diagram of protein digestibility, and a scoring scale for protein quality.
