Sodium alginate decreases the permeability of intestinal mucus (2015)
Journal Article
Mackie, A. R., Macierzanka, A., Aarak, K., Rigby, N. M., Parker, R., Channell, G. A., Harding, S. E., & Bajka, B. H. (2016). Sodium alginate decreases the permeability of intestinal mucus. Food Hydrocolloids, 52, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.foodhyd.2015.08.004

In the small intestine the nature of the environment leads to a highly heterogeneous mucus layer primarily composed of the MUC2 mucin. We set out to investigate whether the soluble dietary fibre sodium alginate could alter the permeability of the muc... Read More about Sodium alginate decreases the permeability of intestinal mucus.
