The correlation between feed-intake cycle and nutritional zinc-deficient status in rats

The characteristic cyclic variation in feed intake of rats fed a Zn-deficient diet (Mills et al, Am J Clin Nutr 22: 1240-1249 (1969)) followed a Cosinor curve, as determined by computer analysis (Tamaki et al, Br J Nutr 73: 711-722 (1995)). The values of amplitude for the feed-intake cycle had a pos...

Zusammenfassung:The characteristic cyclic variation in feed intake of rats fed a Zn-deficient diet (Mills et al, Am J Clin Nutr 22: 1240-1249 (1969)) followed a Cosinor curve, as determined by computer analysis (Tamaki et al, Br J Nutr 73: 711-722 (1995)). The values of amplitude for the feed-intake cycle had a positive correlation to their own day-to-day variations and to the correlation value of their own simulated cycles (r2=0.764, df=50, p0.001 and r2
