Composition of Foods: Raw, Processed, Prepared. USDA (United States Department of Agriculture) Nutrient Database for Standard Reference, Release 18

摘要

The USDA National Nutrient Database for Standard Reference (SR) is the major source of food composition data in the United States. It provides the foundation for most food composition databases in the public and private sectors. As information is updated, new versions of the database are released. This version, Release 18 (SR18), contains data on 7,146 food items for up to 136 food components. SR18 includes all the food composition data published in the 21 volumes and four supplements of Agriculture Handbook 8 (AH-8). Since 1992, updated data has been published electronically on the World Wide Web. The electronic release supersedes the printed version in the event of any differences.
