Substantial adsorption of Pu, Cd and Pb onto mouth surfaces of mice occurs during consumption of drinking water that contains these elements. If this adsorption is not taken into account, the amounts deposited in the eviscerated carcass (muscle plus skeleton) after gastrointestinal absorption are overestimated by 2-9 times for the experiments described. An evaluation of data indicate that significant adsorption can also occur during gavage administration. Methods are described for estimation of amounts deposited in the carcass after exposure of mice to these metals via drinking water or gavage.

Enamel matrix derivative in the treatment of tooth replantation: from a biological basis to clinical application.
Ann Med

Article Synopsis
- Efficient treatment for patients with replanted teeth is challenging due to damage to periodontal tissue; this study evaluates the effectiveness of enamel matrix derivative (EMD) in improving clinical outcomes after replantation.
- Analysis of 375 replanted teeth from 329 patients revealed that EMD did not significantly enhance normal periodontal ligament (PDL) healing but was associated with a lower risk of tooth extraction and improved survival rates in teeth with root resorption.
- The study concludes that while EMD may not increase normal PDL healing, it could help prevent tooth loss in early resorption cases; further high-quality research is needed to confirm these findings.

The use of carriers to improve cannabidiol (CBD) bioavailability during digestion is at the forefront of research. The main objective of this research was to evaluate CBD bioactivity and develop CBD composites based on tailored carbon support to improve availability under digestive conditions. The antioxidant capacity of CBD was evaluated using spectrophotometric methods, and anti-proliferative assays were carried out using human colon carcinoma cells (SW480).

Native mucus is heterogeneous, displays high inter-individual variation and is prone to changes during harvesting and storage. To overcome the lack of reproducibility and availability of native mucus, commercially available purified mucins, porcine gastric mucin (PGM) and mucin from bovine submaxillary gland (BSM), have been widely used. However, the question is to which extent the choice of mucin matters in studies of their interaction with polymers as their composition, structure and hence physicochemical properties differ.

Article Synopsis
- The study explored how the texture of food, particularly factors like lubricity and oral coating, affects feelings of hunger and food intake.
- Milk protein-rich beverages with varying coating properties were tested, showing that a high coating led to a temporary increase in fullness after 20 minutes.
- Results indicated that while a higher concentration of protein in saliva decreased appetite ratings, oral coating and lubricity have minimal impact on overall energy intake and gut peptide responses, suggesting the need for further research on these texture attributes.
