I will be doing a study on effect of black rice (powdered) in glucose response of mice in high fat, high fructose diet. How do I determine the amount of rice to be included in the intervention? Can I simply add 20% to one group then 40% rice to the feeds of another group?
I followed the researchdiet formula. However, im not sure if adding 20 or 40 % of rice will be sufficient to show significant findings. Or should i do a preliminary experiment beforehand to determine effective dose?
This level of rice make your diet a high carbohydrate diet. Please send approximate analysis of rice and your diet and the goal of study to discuss more.
Rice proximate analysis per 100 g

Fiber:10.0 ± 0.2a
Carbohydrates: 32.5 ± 0.3
My topic is effect of glutinous black rice on hyperglycemia in high fat high fructose diet mice.
I will be replacing the carbohydrate source of the high fat high fructose diet with powdered glutinous rice then test for its effect in glucose, insulin, ROS, inflammation after 12 weeks. I have attached the diet formulas that i will be feeding to the control diet group and the high fat high fructose diet group.
As I remembered rice has not antinutrients therefore for replacement, prior posology is not needed. You can also convert the amount of daily usage of human to that of animal. Please see my lecture ppt in slideshow for more information.
which lecture slideshow? Could you post the link here? Thank you.
Plz look over slideshare. I wrote wrong in last message, slideshow.
