I propose here 3 methods of calculation to you to answer 3 cases of figures which you could meet.
Calculation of the quantity of Phenylalanine in a ration of weighed products
Example:
You wish to use carrots.
In the tables you find the values following: carrot 100g = 31 Mg of Phe
You have to weigh 220 G of carrots and you wish to know how much there is Phenylalanine in this ration.
Calculation has to carry out is the following:
Example:
You wish to obtain 60 phenylalanine Mg with carrots.
In the tables you find the values following: carrot 100g = 31 Mg of Phe
You wish to know how much carrots you must weigh.
Calculation has to carry out is the following:
One can without problem calculate the
quantity of Phenylalanine of a product commercial. For that, it is necessary to know: its
constitution and quantity of proteins contained in this product.
According to what it will contain, one will carry out following calculations:
- If it contains only vegetables or fruits: Protein rate X 3.5%
- If it contains only cereals: Protein rate X 4.5%
- If it contains only dairy products, chocolate or others: Protein rate X 5.1%
Example:
You buy a packet soup in a store
On packing you find the indications following:
Ingredients:
Potato, carrots, emulsifier, skimmed milk powder, spice, flour, salt, onion.
Constitution:
Proteins: 0.75 G for 100g of product
You wish to know how much phenylalanine there is in 100g of product.
Like there is skimmed milk, one considers that it is about a dairy product. One will thus
count to 5.1%
Calculation has to carry out is the following:
You refer then to calculations 1 or 2.
