The prevalence of microplastics and nanoplastics in the human body is an increasing concern. Studies revealed that human ...

Gut organoids are three-dimensional (3D), stem cell-derived structures that mimic the cellular composition and functions of the human gastrointestinal (GI) tract. By replicating digestive physiology ...

(Nanowerk News) Researchers at the International Iberian Nanotechnology Laboratory (INL) have made a significant breakthrough in the development of reliable in-vitro digestion models. This ...

The Gastrointestinal Experimental Model Systems Core (GEMS) is subdivided into two subcores: organoid and gnotobiotic sub-cores. The core’s centralized services support exciting scientific ...

Bornhöft, Hanke-Rauschenbach, and Sundmacher, [Nonlinear Dynn., 73 (2013), pp. 535-549] introduced a qualitative simplification to the ADM1 model for anaerobic digestion. We obtain global results for ...

Hydrolysis constants of mixed sludge at 35, 55, and 60 °C were found to be 0.32, 0.44, and 0.50 1/d, respectively, in pilot-scale, semicontinuously operated anaerobic digesters. The hydrolysis ...

Any drug that is taken orally must pass through the lining of the digestive tract. Transporter proteins found on cells that line the GI tract help with this process, but for many drugs, it's unknown ...

Much of the food you eat is absorbed by your digestive system, which includes your stomach and your intestines.
