TL;DR: Digestion and absorption from the small intestine of starch and nonstarch polysaccharides (NSP) from potato cooked and treated in various ways have been studied in ileostomy subjects and in vitro studies with pancreatin demonstrated incomplete digestion of cooled potato.

TL;DR: It is found that all anthocyanidin glycosides were hydrolysed by the microflora within 20 min and 2 h of incubation depending on the sugar moiety, and phenolic degradation products were already detected after 20 min of incubations.

TL;DR: The present experiments were undertaken to investigate the site of dipeptide hydrolysis and in particular to determine whether di pepeptides could enter the mucosal cells.
Abstract: Newey & Smyth (1959a) found that when solutions containing certain dipeptides were placed in contact with the intestinal mucosa these were not transported as such, but the constituent amino acids were found on the other side of the intestinal barrier, i.e. in vitro in the fluid bathing the serosal surface, or in vivo in the blood stream. The only exception was glycyl-glycine, when it was found that small amounts of the dipeptide passed through the mucosal barrier, but even here the amount of dipeptide transported was small, and by far the greatest amount was transported as glycine. The in vitro results have been confirmed for other dipeptides by Wiggans & Johnston (1959). The present experiments were undertaken to investigate the site of dipeptide hydrolysis and in particular to determine whether dipeptides could enter the mucosal cells. A preliminary account has been given by Newey & Smyth (1959b).
