Dear Paula,

 

It seems like you have not looked well enough J

Many food composition datasets/databases carry information on amino acid content of foods!

To name just a few food composition tables/datasets/databases, take a look at the Australian NUTTAB dataset, the USDA database, the old British tables (e.g. First Supplement of McC&W), the Danish database, the Swedish, the Japanese ….

 

You may use the links from the INFOODS page (http://www.fao.org/infoods/infoods/tables-and-databases/en/) or the LanguaL™ page (http://www.langual.org/langual_linkcategory.asp?CategoryID=4&Category=Food+Composition) to get to the food composition sites.

 

Are you looking for the amino acid profiles in any specific foods?

 

All the best,

Anders

Subject: Essential amino acids

 

Dear all,

I hope you are good. One question on essential amino-acids: what FCT compile at present information on the different amino-acids? I have found some old FAO tables (Ruth, I think FAO was putting together new  information considering essential amino-acids, has it happened yet?)  but I wonder whether some other specific tables contain this information… Not the ones I have looked at so far, so I was wondering if anyone was familiar with the best sources for this.

Many thanks and best wishes,

Paula
