Protein digestibility-corrected amino acid score (PDCAAS) is a method of evaluating the quality of a protein based on both the amino acid requirements of humans and their ability to digest it. The PDCAAS rating was adopted by the US FDA and the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations / World Health Organization (FAO/WHO) in 1993 ...
To calculate the amino acid score the formula used is, the milligram of limiting amino acid in 1 gram of test protein/ the milligram of that same amino acid of reference protein multiplied by 100. [2] If food has a score of 100 it is to considered as a high quality protein with all the necessary nutrients.
The PDCAAS considers the global digestibility of the product's protein (a single figure) while the DIAAS accounts for a specific digestibility percentage for each indispensable amino acid The reference values for the PDCAAS are based on a unique age group, the 2 to 5-year-old child which is deemed to be the more demanding.

There are no scientific articles I could find saying that soy protein has a PDCAAS of 0.92, as the article claimed before. They claim either 0.99 or 1.0. I will proceed to change it to 1.0. Jorgenumata 06:41, 15 January 2008 (UTC) Isolated soy protein has a PDCAAS score of 1.0. Soybeans and soy flour are lower.
