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 ...

This video explains how mechanical and chemical digestion break food down and how the small intestine’s adaptations increase ...

(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 ...

A new mathematical model developed by the researchers takes a closer look at that hidden part of digestion. The model, called DAMM — for digestion, absorption and microbial metabolism — follows food ...

Reliable in-vitro digestion models that are able to successfully replicate the conditions found in the human gastrointestinal tract are key to assess the fate and efficiency of new formulations aimed ...

Due to the multiplicity of biogeochemical processes taking place in anaerobic digestion (AD) systems and limitations of the available analytical techniques, assessing the bioavailability of trace ...

Researchers have created a model that follows food beyond traditional calorie calculations, incorporating the role of gut ...

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 ...

Your body’s biliary system encompasses your bile ducts, gallbladder, and the associated digestive structures. This system works together to move bile, also called digestive fluid, through your system ...
