Fantastic Voyage Lisa Whitfield HS 130 Anatomy and Physiology II Unit 9 Kaplan University 5/20/13 Fantastic Voyage The gastrointestinal tract starts with the mouth‚ which leads to the gullet via the stomach‚ small intestine‚ large intestine‚ and ends at the anus. In due course of the journey‚ the ingested food is broken down by both physical and chemical means to release nutrients which are absorbed into the blood stream. The ingested food is physically broken down in the mouth

the compounds we produce. However‚ at the same time bacteria is frequently assaulted by things like antibiotic treatment‚ birth control pills‚ radiation therapy‚ constipation and a diet that is low in calcium‚ fiber‚ lactose and other complex carbohydrates‚ but high in meats‚ coffee‚ tea and alcohol (Intestinal Ecology). It is very beneficial to have bacteria in the intestinal tracts‚ because the bacteria can close up the ecological space in our bodies‚ so that invading pathogens cannot get a solid

From the table it was found that the calcium oxalate content in fresh tuber were 0.14% in elephant foot yam‚ in karunai kizhangu 0.25% and in taro 0.20 percent respectively. The processed (soaking the tubers in citric acid followed by blanching‚ drying & roasting) tuber flour was subjected to determine the presence of calcium oxalate. It was found that elephant foot yam flour had 0.05%‚ karunai kizhangu flour contained 0.09% and in taro flour had 0.08 percent calcium oxalate. The reduction in acridity

Chapter 4 - Methane production 4.1 Microbial consortia and biological aspects of methane fermentation 4.2 Molecular biology of methanogens 4.3 Developments in bioreactor technology References Methane fermentation is a versatile biotechnology capable of converting almost all types of polymeric materials to methane and carbon dioxide under anaerobic conditions. This is achieved as a result of the consecutive biochemical breakdown of polymers to methane and carbon dioxide in an environment

Regarded as an osmotic laxative‚ it offers relief from chronic constipation within about 24-48h. Lactulose transits unchanged to the colon (bypassing small intestine) where it serves as an energy source for the carbohydrate-splitting bacteria‚ predominantly Lactobacillus acidophilus and L.bifidus (Luzzana et al.‚ 2003). According to Prasad et al. (2007)‚ lactulose improves mental action or process of acquiring knowledge and understanding in the patients with cirrhosis
