component_protein_from_nitrogen_conversion_factor

URI: mifc:component_protein_from_nitrogen_conversion_factor

Applicable to: Component

Description

A float representing the nitrogen to protein conversion factor used to calculate a protein value indirectly using a measured nitrogen value.

Properties

  • Range: Float. The range of the slot is the type of the value that can be assigned to it.

  • Requirement status: Optional (You can add this slot, but it is not required.)

Examples

Example: 6.38

Example value:

6.38

Comments

  • Also known as Jones' factors. https://www.ars.usda.gov/ARSUserFiles/80400525/Data/Classics/cir183.pdf. A commonly used value for the component_protein_from_nitrogen_conversion_factor is 6.25 based on the assumptions that all proteins have a nitrogen content of 16%, and that all nitrogen is derived from protein. It should be noted that these assumptions might not always hold.
