Levels of microbiologically available glycine, isoleucine, tryptophan, and tyrosine in unhydrolyzed human plasma were similar in blood obtained in the fasting state or after food intake. In 1 of 13 experiments histidine was significantly increased (P < 0.01) following eating. In 4 of 11 experiments on eight individuals, arginine was significantly elevated (P < 0.01) after food intake. Of the six amino acids studied, analysis of variance indicated significant variation (P < 0.01) among individuals for tyrosine and arginine only.
