Evaluacion de un producto a base de aceite esencial de oregano sobre la integridad intestinal, la capacidad de absorcion de nutrientes y el comportamiento productivo de pollos de carne [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 Eight experiments were conducted to test an oregano-essential-oil-based product (PRO) on performance, gut health, and nutrient absorption capacity in broilers. The first three, up to 14d and without specific challenges, tested the effects on intestinal histology, skeletal integrity, and growth.

A biomechanical model of swallowing for understanding the influence of saliva and food bolus viscosity on flavour release [PDF]
Journal of Theoretical Biology 280 (2011) 180-8, 2013 After swallowing a liquid or a semi-liquid food product, a thin film responsible for the dynamic profile of aroma release coats the pharyngeal mucosa. The objective of the present article was to understand and quantify physical mechanisms explaining pharyngeal mucosa coating. An elastohydrodynamic model of swallowing was developed for Newtonian liquids
