Ingestive behaviour and physiology of the medicinal leech [PDF]
, 1988 Ingestion lasts 25 min in Hirudo medicinalis and is characterized by pharyngeal peristalsis which fills the crop. This peristalsis has an initial rate of 2.4 Hz which decays smoothly to 1.2 Hz at termination of ingestion. During ingestion, the leech body

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.Four aspiration methods (UV, IN, IT, and OA) were compared, and OA was identified as the most effective delivery technique. A chronic aspiration pneumonia model was then established through repeated OA of food suspension or gastric contents. Integrated analyses, including micro‐CT, histopathology, cytokine profiling, and RNA sequencing, revealed ...

Artificial Mucin-based Saliva Preparations - Physicochemical and Tribological Properties.
Oral health & preventive dentistry, 2018 To create and investigate artificial mucin-based saliva substitutes with properties similar to natural saliva.Natural saliva and six saliva preparations were tested. Saliva substitutes were made using phosphate buffered saline (PBS) prepared in deionised water or plasma-treated water (PBSPT) with addition of porcine gastric mucin and guar gum or ...

Natural Aging of Biomaterials in Ambient and Physiological Environments
Advanced NanoBiomed Research, EarlyView.Biomaterials used in biomedical applications can change their physical properties over time, even under ambient and physiological conditions. This review highlights key studies on the natural aging of materials ranging from soft hydrogels to metals and ceramics, emphasizing how time‐dependent changes influence function and performance.
