Protein
The bulk of the proteins found in semen derive from the seminal vesicles, although albumin is mainly of prostatic origin (Hirsch et al, 1991). A review of the literature indicates that albumin makes up about one third of the protein content of semen. The amino acid content of semen is much higher than that of plasma, and it increases rapidly (particularly glutamic acid) in the hours following ejaculation (Keil et al, 1979; Frohlich et al, 1980) [...] the average total protein concentration was 5040 mg/100 mL. We formulated our simulant with a protein content of 5040 mg/100 mL, with the entire protein contribution made up of bovine serum albumin (see Table 6).

For anyone painfully bad at math that equals out 50.4 g of protein per liter. That's a little bit less than a really good protein shake.
