Title: Jejunal and cecal 3-oxy-methyl-d-glucose absorption in chicken using a perfusion system in vivo
Abstract: 1. 3-oxy-methyl-d-glucose (3-OMG) absorption by jejunum and caecum has been studied in the domestic fowl in vivo, with luminal perfusion, during 5 min periods. 2. The diffusion component was evaluated in the presence of phloridzin (10−3 M) that inhibits the active transport mechanism. Kd of jujunal and cecal diffusion of the monosacharide have been calculated, showing a similar value. 3. The Kt and Vmax of 3-OMG absorption were calculated using a graphical method for the two intestinal segments. The caecum showed a lower Kt and Vmax than the jejunum did.
