The effect u^wn yiornnd and tnmour growth of replacing the 'protein of a diet by amino-acid mixtures. It is mainly due to the extensive researches of Abderhalden that it is now proved that an animal can be maintained, and even show an increase of body-weight, when it is fed upon a diet in which protein has been entirely replaced by an amino-acid mixture prepared from a completely hydrolysed protein. Of outstanding importance in this respect are the classical experi-.
