Studies on the Nutritive Value of Milk

IV. The Supplementary Value of Yeast in Nutritional Anemia of Albino Rats

W. E. Krauss

Department of Dairy Husbandry, Ohio Agricultural Experiment Station, Wooster, Ohio

ABSTRACT

Ten samples of yeast from various sources were assayed for antianemic potency. Seven samples showed definite hemoglobin regenerating power of varying degrees. Three samples showed very little or none.

Some correlation appeared to exist between the copper content of the yeasts and their antianemic potency. No such correlation was evident with respect to iron. Other substances, recently claimed to be concerned with hemoglobin regeneration, were not considered.

Some supplementary effect on growth was shown by the addition of yeast to milk. This was attributed to vitamin B.

Most of the chemical analyses were made by Miss Dorothy Woodland of Wooster College.
