The nutritional quality of the flour of the micro-algae Scenedesmus acutus produced in a semi-industrial pilot plant at Sausal, Peru has been tested. The protein content varies between 47.4% and 66.6%. The PER was 2.63 = 0.15 (Casein 3.00 = 0.11), true digestibility 83.4 (Casein 92.4) and BV 60.9 (Casein 73.4). The protein quality did not increase by amino acid supplementation. The 12-week feeding test with micro-algae led to no abnormalities of the weight development, blood parameters, weights of organs and histological datas in the test animals. Further feeding trials and clinical examination on human subjects are recommended before approvement for use in human diet.
对在秘鲁索萨尔的一个半工业试验工厂生产的尖针栅藻微藻粉的营养质量进行了测试。蛋白质含量在47.4%至66.6%之间变化。蛋白质效率比值为2.63±0.15（酪蛋白为3.00±0.11），真消化率为83.4（酪蛋白为92.4），生物利用率为60.9（酪蛋白为73.4）。通过补充氨基酸，蛋白质质量并未提高。对试验动物进行的为期12周的微藻喂养试验未导致体重发育、血液参数、器官重量和组织学数据出现异常。在批准用于人类饮食之前，建议对人体进行进一步的喂养试验和临床检查。
