Clinical Trial: Assessment of Protein Availability of thick Liquid Feeds Powdered by Spray Drying (Japan)

Tokyo, Sept. 6 -- UMIN Clinical Trials Registry (UMIN-CTR) received information related to the study (UMIN000059002) titled 'Assessment of Protein Availability of thick Liquid Feeds Powdered by Spray Drying' on Sept. 6.

Study Type: Interventional

Study Design: Basic Design - Single arm Randomization - Non-randomized Blinding - Open -no one is blinded Control - Uncontrolled

Primary Sponsor: Institute - Hiroshima International University

Condition: Condition - sarcopenia Classification by malignancy - Others Genomic information - NO

Objective: Narrative objectives1 - Concentrated liquid diets are used to meet energy and nutrient deficiencies when food intake is reduced. They are also used for tube feeding when oral intake is difficult due to dysphagia. Concentrated liquid diets distributed in Japan are mainly liquid, but powdering them offers several significant advantages. Powders obtained by the spray-drying method undergo a significant change in physical properties due to the evaporation of water as well as the temporary exposure of food components to high temperatures. Whether these changes affect the bioavailability of energy and nutrients is unknown. The purpose of this study is to investigate nitrogen delivery during consumption of conventional liquid or powdered concentrated liquid diets to determine if the bioavailability of nitrogen is altered by the powdering process. Basic objectives2 - Others
