Few students of human digestive physiology regard the large intestine as anything other than an organ that salvages some of the salt and water which escape absorption in the small bowel. However, in monogastric species such as the horse, pig, rabbit,

1. The effect of acetate absorbed from the gut on glucose turnover has been determined in four healthy subjects during both fasting and an intravenous glucose infusion by using [U-13C]glucose. 2. In the first part of the study, after an overnight fas

A new method is described for measuring the mean transit time (MTT) of digesta through the human gut in which a constant amount of marker (radio-opaque pellets) is fed to subjects with each meal over a period of weeks, and its excretion measured in t

SUMMARY Two hundred and seven strains of bacteria from human faeces were screened for their ability to convert oleic acid to hydroxystearic acid in vitro. Ninety-four strains were able to perform this reaction. All but one of the enterococci tested w

The effect on colonic function of adding wheat fiber for 3 weeks to the metabolically-controlled diets of six healthy volunteers has been studied. Increasing dietary fiber intake from 17 to 45 g/day increased fecal weight from 79 ± 6.6 g/day to 228

An investigation was made of the effect of changing mean transit time (MTT) by administration of drugs which affect colonic motility on faecal microbial mass in man. Senokot was used to accelerate and codeine and/or loperamide to prolong transit in s

Three-day faecal collections were obtained from 87 patients with a variety of gastroenterological diagnoses and 12 control subjects while consuming normal diets. Faecal weight, total fatty acids, and the proportion of hydroxystearic (OHSA) acid were

Epidemiological observations and animal experiments suggest that large bowel cancer is related to serveral factors. Among them, high dietary intakes of animal fat, the presence in the colon of relatively high levels of bile acids, specific patterns o

Nonstarch polysaccharide (NSP) intake was measured in representative samples of 30 men aged 50-59 in 2 urban and 2 rural Scandinavian populations that exhibited a 3-4 fold difference in incidence of large bowel cancer. Intake was measured by chemical

The nutritional consequences of the ingestion of NAS depend on the quantity ingested. At lower levels there is little effect on the absorption of other nutrients and the colonic microbiological-salvage mechanism operates and a substantial proportion
