(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 prevalence of microplastics and nanoplastics in the human body is an increasing concern. Studies revealed that human brain tissues contain seven to 30 times more particles than other organs, such ...

Digestive system diseases arise primarily through the interplay of genetic and environmental influences; there is an urgent need in elucidating the pathogenic mechanisms of these diseases and deploy ...

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

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 ...

In vitro gastrointestinal digestion models are laboratory systems designed to replicate the physicochemical and biochemical processes of the human digestive tract. They span from static ...

A new review of randomized trials shows that while ChatGPT-style AI can improve education and trust in digestive care, hard evidence from real patients remains in short supply. Study: Randomized ...
