Gastric conditions, pH 2.5, 5 g/L NaCl, 3 g/L pepsin.
Intestinal conditions, pH 7.5, 5 g/L NaCl, 3 g/L bile salts, 1 g/L pancreatin from porcine pancreas.
All values are mean±SD (n=3).
Means with different superscript letters (a-d) in the same column are significantly different at p<0.05 by Tukey’s HSD test.
