Abbreviations

FW = Fresh WeightDW = Dry Weight (Dry Basis)M = % Moisture/100TIU = Trypsin Inhibitor UnitsHU = Hemagglutination units

Conversions

Converting % Fresh Weight to % Dry Weight (Dry Basis):% DW = % FW / (1.0 - M)mg/g DW = (mg/g FW) / (1.0 - M)mg/kg DW = (ppm FW) / (1.0 - M)Converting Dry Weight (Dry Basis) to Fresh Weight:% FW = % DW * (1.0 - M)mg/g FW = (mg/g DW) * (1.0 - M)mg/kg FW = (mg/kg DW) * (1.0 - M)Converting TIU/mg FW to TIU/g DW:TIU/g DW = (TIU/mg FW) *1000/ (1.0 - M)Converting TIU/g DW to TIU/mg FW:TIU/mg FW = ((TIU/g DW) * (1.0 - M) ) /1000

Scaling Units & Relative Units

Scaling Unitsmg/g FW = 10.0 * (% FW)% FW = (mg/g FW) / 10.0μg/g FW = 10.0 * (mg/100g FW)mg/100g FW = (μg/g FW) / 10.0

mg/kg = ppm

Relative UnitsTotalAA = The sum of analyte values with the same Data_Source, Study_ID, and Sample_ID and whose Analyte Category Code is AMINO ACIDS.

TotalP = The value of the analyte CRUDE PROTEIN. TotalFA = The sum of analyte values with the same Data_Source, Study_ID, and Sample_ID and whose Analyte Category Code is FATTY ACIDS. Σ() = The summarization function AAi= Individual Amino Acid valueFAi= Individual Fatty Acid value

Units for Amino Acids% Total Amino Acids = ((mg/g FW AAi) / Σ(mg/g FW TotalAA )) * 100% Total Protein = ((mg/g FW AAi) / ((% FW TotalP )*10)) * 100

Units for Fatty Acids% Total Fatty Acids = (% FW FAi / Σ( % FW TotalFA )) * 100
