Abstract

In vitro digestibilityand protein efficiency ratio (PER) of skim milk concentrates from fresh and autoclaved coconuts as well as the acid and heat coagulates and whey solids have been determined. The supplementary effects of whey solids and minerals on the poor PER of coconuts have also been investigated. PER of skim milk concentrates from autoclaved COCOnuts was nel1atlve while that from. fresh coconuts was fairly high (1·4-1·9); acid and heat coagulates had also higher PER (1,9-2,4). The in vitro digestiblilty of both acid and heat coagulates was hillher than that of concentrates from fresh coconuts. The results sug,gest that the protein of skim milk suffers some damage during autodavlng and concentration.
