TLDR
The response of the rat small intestine to an overnight fast has been compared with feeding ad libitum with chow and the structure and function of the small intestine in the fasted and fed animals appear to be important considerations in studies of absorption.

Energy kinetics and role of nutrition in cancer patients

TL;DR: A conceptional theoretical model is developed to represent energy production and utilization in four stages; namely, intake of nutrients, processing of nutrients into macromolecules by digestion and absorption, metabolism into fuel, and utilization of fuel by cells to carry out essential life processes.

Effect of cholestasis and biliary diversion on the absorption of Na octanoate in the rat

TL;DR: The intestinal absorption and portal vein transport of Na octanoate by isolate jejunal segments perfused in iivo were unchanged in rats studied 48 h after bile duct ligation or fistula.
Journal ArticleDOI

Intestinal response to feeding heat damaged casein in rats

TL;DR: The present study shows that leucine aminopeptidase activity in the small intestinal mucosa is not affected by this dietary stress, indicating that the mucosa still has amino acids available for enzyme synthesis.

Protein Measurement with the Folin Phenol Reagent

TL;DR: Procedures are described for measuring protein in solution or after precipitation with acids or other agents, and for the determination of as little as 0.2 gamma of protein.

A study of the conditions and mechanism of the diphenylamine reaction for the colorimetric estimation of deoxyribonucleic acid

TL;DR: The present study arose from the observation that a more intense colour was sometimes produced if, instead of being heated at 1000 for 10 min., the reaction mixture was allowed to stand overnight at room temperature.

The use of sacs of everted small intestine for the study of the transference of substances from the mucosal to the serosal surface.

TL;DR: A preparation of isolated small intestine of the rat or golden hamster is described which permits convenient measurement ofpiration and glycolysis during periods of active transference of substances across the wall.

Influence of the normal flora on mucosal morphology and cellular renewal in the ileum. a comparison of germ-free and conventional mice

TL;DR: By comparison of germ-free and conventional mice, many of the morphologic characteristics of the ideal mucosa ordinarily recognized as 'normal' were demonstrated actually to develop in response to the presence of the bacterial flora of the natural environment.
