Journal ArticleDOI

Intestinal disaccharidase activities in the growing germfree and conventional rats

TL;DR: The results indicate that intestinal disaccharidases are synthesized by the animal itself, and that the intestinal microorganisms do not contribute to any major extent to their production.
Journal ArticleDOI

Studies on the transport of glucose from disaccharides by hamster small intestine in vitro. I. Evidence for a disaccharidase-related transport system

TL;DR: In the presence of saturating concentrations of free d-glucose, total glucose uptake was enhanced beyond the theoretical V for free glucose uptake when disaccharides were incubated with intestinal rings and this could arise as a consequence of the association ofdisaccharidases with the brush border membrane.
Journal ArticleDOI

Validity of polyethylene glycol in estimating intestinal water volume.

TL;DR: The development of the nonabsorbable marker technique has given impetus to the study of intestinal absorption and secretion in man, since it has been shown that the water- and fat-soluble phases of a meal dissociate in the stornach and are propelled at different rates through the rest of the intestinal tract.
Journal ArticleDOI

A physico-chemical perspective of plant polysaccharides in relation to glucose absorption, insulin secretion and the entero-insular axis

TL;DR: A brief review of the possible physico-chemical mechanisms by which NSP, mainly the water-soluble polymers, influence glucose absorption, insulin secretion and the entero-insular axis is reviewed.

Intracellular hydrolysis of dipeptides during intestinal absorption.

H. Newey, +1 more
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.

The location of carbohydrases in the digestive tract of the pig.

TL;DR: Aldridge, W. H. & Potter, V. R. (1958).
