The linear relationship between true protein and nitrogen contents of feed and food ingredients: calculating true protein from a new conversion factor
The protein content of feed and food ingredients has traditionally been estimated using a universal nitrogen-to-protein conversion factor (NPCF) of 6.25, assuming all proteins contain 16% nitrogen (N) and all N originates from protein. However, these assumptions are often inaccurate. Specific NPCFs...
