Abstract
The results of experiments carried out on albino rats show that administration, during periods of continued muscular activity, of casein hydrolyzate, a mixture of amino acids, or phosphoric acid salts, favors the maintenance of a higher than normal level of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) and phosphocreatine (CP) and a corresponding decrease in the level of adenosine diphosphate (ADP) and adenosine monophosphate (AMP) in the muscles.It appears from this study that just as carbohydrate is known to have a protein-sparing action, so amino acids have been found to have a sparing action in the metabolism of carbohydrate and phosphate ester in the animal even under conditions of intense physical exercise at low temperatures.
