An essential basis for the understanding of the complex interplay between oral drug delivery
systems and gastrointestinal physiology is the ability to relate deposition of the dosage form …

Conventionally, pharmaceutical substances are administered orally because the
gastrointestinal tract possesses the appropriate features for drug absorption. Nevertheless …

We describe the development of a joint in vivo/ex vivo protocol to monitor magnetic
nanoparticles in animal models. Alternating current biosusceptometry (ACB) enables the …

A novel non-invasive method to study the motion associated with gastric antral contractions
is discussed. The method is based on magnetic flux changes detected by an ac …

Oral administration of solid dosage forms is usually preferred in drug therapy. Conventional
imaging methods are essential tools to investigate the in vivo performance of these …

Objectives This study aimed to evaluate the effects of prucalopride, a prokinetic agent that
acts as a potent serotonin agonist of 5-HT4 receptors, on gastric emptying and small bowel …

The oral administration is a common route in the drug therapy and the solid pharmaceutical
forms are widely used. Although much about the performance of these formulations can be …

Electrical activity in the gastrointestinal system produces magnetic fields that may be
measured with superconducting quantum interference device magnetometers. Although …

Background: We evaluated the impacts of corona protein (CP) formation on the alternating
current biosusceptometry (ACB) signal intensity and in vivo circulation times of three …

The use of magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) in biomedical applications requires the
quantitative knowledge of their quantitative distribution within the body. AC …
