It is crucial to replicate or mimic the human digestive system conditions closely in model
systems to have the food digestion-related data as accurate as possible. Thus, the data …

Background: The traditional dairy-cattle-based industry is becoming increasingly diversified
with milk and milk products from non-cattle dairy species. The interest in non-cattle milks has …

Developing a mechanistic understanding of the impact of food structure and composition on
human health has increasingly involved simulating digestion in the upper gastrointestinal …

Oral bioavailability is the key to the bioefficiency of food bioactive ingredients; it evaluates
the relationship between foods and their health benefits. The analysis of the main factors …

Background Food digestion rate and location within the gastrointestinal (GI) tract are
important for human health. Ideally, food digestion studies should be performed in vivo but …

During the last decade, there has been a growing interest in understanding food's digestive
fate in order to strengthen the possible effects of food on human health. Ideally, food …

The gold standard for nutrition studies is clinical trials but they are expensive and variable,
and do not always provide the mechanistic information required, hence the increased use of …

In vitro digestion assays simulate the physiological conditions of digestion in vivo and are
useful tools for studying and understanding changes, interactions, as well as the …

In vitro alternatives to clinical trials are used for studying human food digestion. For
simulating infant digestion, only a few models, lacking physiological relevance, are …

Milk protein coagulation is not only important during the processing of milk into various dairy
products, but also during digestion of milk. This review focusses on the gastric coagulation of …
