 note = {P(論文), The effects of dietary zinc deprivation on zinc concentration, the activity of angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) and the ratio of apo/holo-activity of ACE (ACE ratio) in the serum of rats were examined. 
　The rats were fed either a zinc-deficient diet or a control diet for up to 3, 7, 14 or 21 days. Zinc concentration in the serum was measured by atomic absorption spectrophotometry. Also, the activity of ACE in the serum was measured using ACE assay kits.
　There was a significant decrease in zinc concentration and of the activity of holo-ACE in the serum of rats fed a zinc-deficient diet. The ACE ratio was significantly increased in the rats deprived of dietary zinc.
　These results suggested that the ACE ratio is as sensitive as the serum zinc concentration in the evaluation of zinc deficiency and can be used for the biochemical diagnosis of zinc nutritional status.},
