Macromolecules include proteins, carbohydrates, and lipids. These macromolecules cannot be absorbed through the muscosal cells of the small intestine, as they are too large. Therefore, they must be chemically digested by enzymes into their monomers, or building blocks. These monomers are then...
The main function of our digestive system is to take in nutrients, in the form of food, and break them down to their simplest form so that they can absorbed into our blood supply. From there they can be stored as an energy supply. Let us discuss the organs invo...

For example, the pH of the A horizon in the San Bernardino Mountains of southern California declined by at least 2 units from the 1980s to the 2000s (Fenn et al., 2006). Coincidentally, in the same period, two nationwide surveys in China also showed that the farmland topsoil (0–30 ...
In order to investigate the metabolic characteristics of human follicular fluid (FF) and to reveal potential metabolic predictors of follicular development (FD) with clinical implications, we analyzed a total of 452 samples based on a two-stage study des
The Canadian Light Source is celebrating two milestones reached by scientists who have conducted research at the national facility at the University of Saskatchewan.
Microbes have the ability to consume or degrade a wide range of molecules including carbohydrates, lipids, and proteins as sources of energy. This ability allows researchers to identify and distinguish microbes based on their specific catabolic properties such ...
The EIFFF apparatus uses the two main walls of the channel to create a difference in the potential between the electrodes which leads to a separation between charges [149]. 3.5. Microfluidic Chips Since its appearance in the early 1990s, the microfluidics field of research has seen great and...
(Figure 3b) shows that the two main components distinguish between the roasting styles; hence, the Agrinose is a suitable tool for the rapid identification of defective “overdeveloped” and “underdeveloped” roasting processes versus the correct “standard” roast. Our previous studies demonstrated ...
. The parameters evaluated were moisture, proteins, fat, total dietary fiber (TDF), ash, carbohydrates, antioxidant capacity, antimicrobial activity, pH and water activity (aw). The multivariate statistical techniques evaluated those samples that exhibited the highest degree of correlation with the ...
