Mean (± SE) fractional synthesis rates (FSRs) in mixed muscle protein from 2 groups of healthy elderly subjects in the basal state and during supplementation with 18 g of an essential amino acid supplement (●; n = 6) or 40 g of a balanced amino acid supplement that contained 18 g essential amino acids (○; n = 8). Group effect: P = 0.77. Supplement effect: P = 0.0136. Treatment-by-group interaction: P = 0.29.
