The intestinal barrier separates the internal environment from the lumen of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. To keep the normal epithelial homeostasis (absorption of nutrients and water, water secretion…) a tight epithelial regulation is essential.

De kostprijs van AOPs voor een volledigechemische oxidatie is over ...
