A team of researchers has developed a "gut-on-chip" (a miniature model of the human intestine on a chip-sized device) capable ...

In a breakthrough for the advanced study of gut health, NUS scientists have developed a 3D microscopic version of the human ...

In a breakthrough for the advanced study of gut health, scientists have developed a 3D microscopic version of the human intestines condensed into a small chip about half the size of a five-cent coin.

Micro- and nanoscale plastic particles in soil and water can significantly increase how much toxic chemicals plants and human ...

Our intestines contain trillions of bacteria ... It simulates biological conditions (like food movement and oxygen levels) as in the human gut, mimics key structural and physiological features ...

In the animal kingdom, the vertebrate intestine is renowned for its regenerative capacity, a vital process for maintaining ...

A new Weizmann Institute study identified all of the proteins in a stool sample – those from the microbiome, the human body and food – revealing the hidden secrets of the intestines and their impact ...

The Gut-on-Chip makes it possible to test the gut microbiota of a patient with cancer, in this case melanoma, while waiting to undergo immunotherapy and to predict the outcome of that therapy. In the ...

"Our aim was to create a system that more closely mimics human intestinal tissue. This model will allow us to study in detail key processes such as cell regeneration or changes associated with ...
