The hazards associated with microplastic pollution are becoming increasingly recognized. However, one study suggests that researchers have misjudged the impacts of nanoplastics — the insidiously ...

The Peterson Health Technology Institute (PHTI) has released an independent evaluation of virtual solutions for gastrointestinal conditions, highlighting peer-reviewed clinical outcomes and measurable ...

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 ...

This film explores the complex process of human digestion, detailing how food is broken down into molecules by the digestive system. It follows the journey of food from the mouth, where it is chewed ...

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 ...

Digestive enzymes are found in the digestive system, including the mouth, stomach, and small intestine. They help you break down food and absorb nutrients. Sometimes, the body cannot make enough ...
