Values for digestible indispensable amino acid scores (DIAAS) for some dairy and plant proteins may better describe protein quality than values calculated using the concept for protein digestibility-corrected amino acid scores (PDCAAS)
Open accessAbstract
An experiment was conducted to compare values for digestible indispensable amino acid scores (DIAAS) for four animal proteins and four plant proteins with values calculated as recommended for protein digestibility-corrected amino acid scores (PDCAAS), but determined in pigs instead of in rats. Values for standardised total tract digestibility (STTD) of crude protein (CP) and standardised ileal digestibility (SID) of amino acids (AA) were calculated for whey protein isolate (WPI), whey protein concentrate (WPC), milk protein concentrate (MPC), skimmed milk powder (SMP), pea protein concentrate (PPC), soya protein isolate (SPI), soya flour and whole-grain wheat. The PDCAAS-like values were calculated using the STTD of CP to estimate AA digestibility and values for DIAAS were calculated from values for SID of AA. Results indicated that values for SID of most indispensable AA in WPI, WPC and MPC were greater (P<0·05) than for SMP, PPC, SPI, soya flour and wheat. With the exception of arginine and tryptophan, the SID of all indispensable AA in SPI was greater (P<0·05) than in soya flour, and with the exception of threonine, the SID of all indispensable AA in wheat was less (P<0·05) than in all other ingredients. If the same scoring pattern for children between 6 and 36 months was used to calculate PDCAAS-like values and DIAAS, PDCAAS-like values were greater (P<0·05) than DIAAS values for SMP, PPC, SPI, soya flour and wheat indicating that PDCAAS-like values estimated in pigs may overestimate the quality of these proteins.

Each contradiction between two passages listed here was confirmed by an independent check.
PPC and SPI are misidentified as exceptions to a change in limiting amino acid
MinorThe discussion says the original PDCAAS scoring pattern changes the predicted first-limiting amino acid for every protein except SMP, PPC and wheat. Table 6 instead shows a change for PPC (Trp to SAA) and no change for SPI (SAA in both columns).
“However, if the original scoring pattern for PDCAAS was used, the predicted first-limiting AA were different for all proteins except SMP, PPC and wheat”
“| PPC | 75 a (Trp) | 75 a (Trp) | 71 b (SAA) | 62 c (SAA) | 0•6 | <0•0001 | | SPI | 93 a (SAA) | 93 a (SAA) | 86 b (SAA) | 84 c (SAA) | 0•5 | <0•0001 |”
Conflicting claims about threonine digestibility in wheat
MinorThe abstract excludes threonine from the amino acids whose digestibility was significantly lower in wheat than in every other ingredient. The Results section says this was true of all indispensable amino acids, which includes threonine.
“with the exception of threonine, the SID of all indispensable AA in wheat was less (P < 0•05) than in all other ingredients.”
“The SID of all indispensable AA and of alanine and tyrosine was less (P < 0•05) in wheat than in all other ingredients.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
A language model drew the claims from the paper on 2026-10-05, under version 3 of the claim definition (model deepseek-v4.1-flash, prompt extract-v3).
A second model labelled each claim on 2026-10-05 (model jev-1.13-20260917, definition revision gold-guideline-v0.2).
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
