Description

Application

• The gut microbiome modulates the impact of Anaerobutyricum soehngenii supplementation on glucose homeostasis in mice.: This study investigates how the gut microbiome affects glucose homeostasis in mice supplemented with Anaerobutyricum soehngenii. Findings suggest a significant role of microbial interactions in metabolic regulation (Hutchison et al., 2024).


• Development and cytotoxicity evaluation of multiple nanoemulsions for oral co-delivery of 5-fluorouracil and short chain triglycerides for colorectal cancer.: This paper explores the development of nanoemulsions containing 5-fluorouracil and short-chain triglycerides, including tripropionin, for targeted cancer therapy, highlighting their potential in improving drug delivery and efficacy (Fukumori et al., 2023).


• Gastrointestinal digestion of Pickering emulsions stabilised by hydrophobically modified cellulose nanocrystals: Release of short-chain fatty acids.: This study examines the digestion of Pickering emulsions stabilized by modified cellulose nanocrystals, focusing on the release of short-chain fatty acids, including those from tripropionin, during gastrointestinal digestion (Le et al., 2020).


• Evaluation of lipid-stabilised tripropionin nanodroplets as a delivery route for combretastatin A4.: This research evaluates the use of lipid-stabilized tripropionin nanodroplets for the delivery of the anticancer drug combretastatin A4, demonstrating enhanced stability and targeted delivery potential (Mico et al., 2017).
