Abstract
Proteins are important macronutrients for the human body to grow and function throughout life. Although proteins are found in most foods, their very dissimilar digestibility must be taking into consideration when addressing the nutritional composition of a diet. This review presents a comprehensive summary of the in vitro digestibility of proteins from plants, milk, muscle, and egg. It is evident from this work that protein digestibility greatly varies among foods, this variability being dependent not only upon the protein source, but also the food matrix and the molecular interactions between proteins and other food components (food formulation), as well as the conditions during food processing and storage. Different approaches have been applied to assess in vitro protein digestibility (IVPD), varying in both the enzyme assay and quantification method used. In general, animal proteins tend to show higher IVPD. Harsh technological treatments tend to reduce IVPD, except for plant proteins, in which thermal degradation of anti-nutritional compounds results in improved IVPD. However, in order to improve the current knowledge about protein digestibility there is a vital need for understanding dependency on a protein source, molecular interaction, processing and formulation and relationships between. Such knowledge can be used to develop new food products with enhanced protein bioaccessibility.

Abstract
BACKGROUND When sufficient breast milk is not available, infant formula is often used as an alternative. As for digestion, gastric behavior of infant formula and breast milk have not been studied in detail. OBJECTIVE This study aimed to compare gastric emptying and intragastric behavior between breast milk and infant formula in vivo using MRI. METHODS In this randomized crossover study, 16 lactating mothers (age: 31.7 ± 2.9 y; time since giving birth: 9.3 ± 2 mo), underwent gastric MRI scans before and after consumption of 200 mL of infant formula or their own breast milk. MRI scans were performed after an overnight fast (baseline) and every 10 min up until 60 min following ingestion. Primary outcomes were gastric emptying measures and the secondary outcome was gastric layer volume over time. Differences between infant formula and breast milk in total gastric volume and layering volume were tested using linear mixed models. RESULTS Gastric emptying half-time was 5.1 min faster for breast milk than for infant formula (95% CI: -19.0 to 29.2) (n = 14). Within a subgroup (n = 12) with similar initial gastric volume (<20 mL difference), gastric emptying half-time was 20 min faster for breast milk (95% CI: 1.23-43.1). Top layer volume (n = 16) was 6.4 mL greater for infant formula than for breast milk (95% CI: 1.9-10.8). This effect is driven by t = 10 and t = 20 min postingestion. CONCLUSIONS When taking initial gastric volume into account, breast milk emptied faster than infant formula in women, which is in line with previous findings in infants. Infant formula showed a significantly larger top layer volume in the first 20 min after ingestion. MRI in adults may find application in studies assessing gastric behavior of infant formula.

Abstract
The introduction of membrane filtration during infant milk formula (IMF) processing represents an innovative approach to increasing native protein content compared to standard IMF. The objective of this study was to compare IMF powder produced using a standard process and IMF produced from raw bovine skim milk with added whey protein isolate using a split-stream process incorporating a ceramic 1.4 μm filter followed by a polyvinylidene difluoride polymeric 0.2 μm filter. Retentates from 0.2 μm microfiltration (MF) were blended with fat, lactose, and minerals and subsequently high-temperature treated (125 °C × 5 s). The heat-treated retentate was merged with the permeate from the 0.2 μm MF, homogenised, and spray-dried (referred to as membrane-filtered IMF or MEM-IMF). A control IMF was also produced using standard treatment (referred to as high-temperature IMF or HT-IMF) without membrane filtration. Both IMF products were characterised by high-performance liquid chromatography, particle size, and enzyme activity assays. MEM-IMF powder had significantly higher amounts of native (1.1 g per 100 g powder) and monomeric (1.48 g per 100 g powder) whey proteins when compared to 0.18 and 0.46 g per 100 g powder in HT-IMF, respectively. MEM-IMF also exhibited a lower degree of protein aggregation compared to HT-IMF. Comparison of microbial and Maillard by-products markers demonstrated that a safe IMF product could be produced at scale, although levels of the Maillard by-product marker, carboxymethyl-lysine, were not significantly reduced in MEM-IMF. This study demonstrates how membrane filtration can be used to retain native proteins during IMF manufacture.

Abstract
The lipolytic behaviors and postprandial effects of butterfat and its fractions (30L and 30S) procured by dry fractionation at 30 °C were investigated using in vivo digestion. A total of 142 triacylglycerols (TAGs), 64 diacylglycerols (DAGs), 14 monoacylglycerols (MAGs), and 7 free fatty acids (FFAs) in the butterfat fractions and their hydrolysates were identified by combining high-performance liquid chromatography coupled with electrospray ionization-tandem quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry with solid-phase extraction. The first-step hydrolysis from TAGs to sn-1,2 DAGs occurred slower in the high-melting-temperature solid fat (30S) fraction, which is rich in long-chain FAs compared to that of the low-melting-temperature liquid oil (30L) fraction, which is rich in short-chain unsaturated FAs (the hydrolysis rates were 39.22% vs 60.11%, respectively, in the 30 min gastric phase), and these differences were also reflected in the delayed and relatively flat postprandial lipemia levels in rats force-fed with 30S fraction. This study revealed the importance of TAG composition and lipid physical state in regulating digestion and absorption, which is related to nutrition science and the dairy or pharmaceutical industry.

Abstract
In vitro digestion models are essential to predictively evaluate the bioaccessibility and bioactivity of food molecules or natural products. Dynamic models better simulate the gastrointestinal conditions as they reproduce similar physiological environments. Despite this, static methods, also known as biochemical methods, represent a simple and useful approach for the study of different types of molecules, with a broad applicability in the nutritional, pharmaceutical, and toxicological fields. In addition, static models can be validated, avoiding the disadvantage of a difficult reproducibility of dynamic in vitro systems and inter-individual variations of in vivo experiments. A crucial point in the standardization of static models was the COST Action Infogest in 2014, which elaborated an international consensus static digestion method to harmonize experimental conditions and has general guidelines, thus allowing the comparison of studies and data. The aim of our review is to underline the impact of the Infogest consensus method and the development and evolution of in vitro static methods in the following years, with a focus on food applications.

Abstract
Milk is commonly exposed to processing including homogenization and thermal treatment before consumption, and this processing could have an impact on its digestion behavior in the stomach. In this study, we investigated the in vitro gastric digestion behavior of differently processed sheep milks. The samples were raw, pasteurized (75 °C/15 s), homogenized (200/20 bar at 65 °C)-pasteurized, and homogenized-heated (95 °C/5 min) milks. The digestion was performed using a dynamic in vitro gastric digestion system, the human gastric simulator with simulated gastric fluid without gastric lipase. The pH, structure, and composition of the milks in the stomach and the emptied digesta, and the rate of protein hydrolysis were examined. Curds formed from homogenized and heated milk had much looser and more fragmented structures than those formed from unhomogenized milk; this accelerated the curd breakdown, protein digestion and promoted the release of protein, fat, and calcium from the curds into the digesta. Coalescence and flocculation of fat globules were observed during gastric digestion, and most of the fat globules were incorporated into the emptied protein/peptide particles in the homogenized milks. The study provides a better understanding of the gastric emptying and digestion of processed sheep milk under in vitro gastric conditions.

Abstract
Casein (CN) micelles will coagulate in the stomach after ingestion, which is similar to the cheesemaking process. Although genetic variants of bovine proteins, especially κ-CN, have been confirmed to influence the coagulation properties of the CN micelle, its influence on milk digestibility has not been revealed yet. This study aimed to investigate how genetic variants, glycosylation degree of κ-CN, and CN micelle size influence digestion rates during in vitro gastrointestinal digestion. Three milk pools, representing κ-CN phenotypes of either AA, BB, or AB composition were prepared from milk of individual Danish Holstein cows representing these different genotypes. In vitro digestion of the 3 milk pools, AA, BB, or AB, was investigated by sodium dodecyl sulfate-PAGE, liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry, and degree of hydrolysis. The results showed that κ-CN AA milk had faster digestion rate in the gastric phase compared with BB and AB milks, whereas only small differences were apparent in the intestinal digestion phase. The results further documented that the milk pools representing κ-CN phenotypes BB and AB had comparable overall glycosylation degrees (50.9% and 50.0%, respectively) and higher than that of the AA milk pool (46.9%). Further, the AA milk pool was associated with larger CN micelles. These differences in CN micelle sizes and glycosylation degrees can be part of underlying explanations for the differential in vitro digestion rates observed between the AA, BB, and AB κ-CN milk pools.

Abstract
The behavior of fat globules during the gastric digestion of raw and pasteurized cow, goat, and sheep whole milks was studied using a human gastric simulator. Microstructural and physicochemical analysis revealed that, initially, the coagulation of the milks in the human gastric simulator resulted in the majority of the milk fat globules being entrapped within the curd. As the digestion progressed, the proportion of fat globules entrapped within the aggregated protein matrix (curd) decreased; there was also some flocculation as well as coalescence of the fat globules within the curd. The liberation of the entrapped fat globules from the curd to the liquid phase of the chyme was strongly dependent on the disintegration and hydrolysis of the structured casein network. Surprisingly, the fat globules released (or already present) into the liquid phase of the chyme were not as extensively coalesced as those remaining within the curd. These phenomena were observed to be similar for the raw and pasteurized whole milk of all species. The pasteurized whole milks from all species formed relatively less structured coagula compared with their raw milk counterparts, leading to a greater extent of protein breakdown and, thus, higher proportions of fat release from the pasteurized milk curds. This study provides a deeper understanding of how the curd-forming properties of different mammalian milks in the gastric environment provide controlled delivery of nutrients (such as protein and fat).

Abstract
Evaluating the gastrointestinal (GI) fate of proteins is part of the assessment to determine whether proteins are safe to consume. In vitro digestion tests are often used for screening purposes in the evaluation of potential allergenicity. However, the current pepsin resistant test used by the European Food Safety Authority, only corresponds to fasted gastric conditions representative of a late phase adult stomach. In addition, these tests are performed on isolated proteins and the effect of the food matrix and processing are not systematically considered. The aim of this research is to compare three different static in vitro GI scenarios that are physiologically relevant. Namely, an infant, early phase (fed state) adult and late phase (fasted state) adult model. These protocols are applied to well-characterised isolated dairy (β-lactoglobulin and β-casein) and egg (lysozyme and ovalbumin) proteins and the impact of food matrix/processing on their proteolysis is also investigated. A combination of SDS-PAGE, LC-MS/MS and spectrophotometric assay was used for the evaluation of the proteolysis. Results highlight differences across the three GI scenarios whether on isolated proteins or within food matrices. The infant model led to incomplete digestion, leaving intact egg proteins, either isolated or in the food matrix, and intact β-lactoglobulin in the milk. In addition, peptides greater than 9 amino acids were found throughout the intestinal phase for all proteins studied, regardless of the scenario. This reinforces the difficulty of linking protein digestibility to potential allergenicity because many other factors are involved that need further investigation.

Abstract
Recent research indicates that the food matrix can influence digestion kinetics and uptake of nutrients, thus affecting human health. The aim of this study was to obtain knowledge on how variations in microstructure and texture of foods represented by four dairy products; (i) cheddar cheese, (ii) a homogenized cheddar cheese, (iii) a micellar casein and cream drink or (iv) a micellar casein and cream gel, all of identical nutrient ratios of protein : fat and calcium : fat, affect the in vitro digestibility kinetics of lipids. Rheology of the four dairy structures was measured at 10 °C and 37 °C before digestion, and during the gastric phase of in vitro digestion. During digestion cheddar cheese was most resistant to enzymatic and mechanical disintegration, followed by homogenized cheese, while both the drink and gel had low resistance and dissolved in the gastric juice. Particle size, fat droplet size and microstructure were assessed by light scattering and confocal microscopy during digestion. Significantly larger fat droplets were observed during digestion of the cheddar cheese sample. The release of free fatty acids during the initial intestinal digestion showed cheddar cheese to provide a significantly lower release than homogenized cheese, whereas the drink and gel both had significantly higher free fatty acid release. The results suggest that the cheese matrix resistance to degradation and its large fat droplets were responsible for a slower fat digestion.

Abstract
It is crucial to replicate or mimic the human digestive system conditions closely in model systems to have the food digestion-related data as accurate as possible. Thus, the data obtained could contribute to studies like those on the relationship between health and nutrition. This review aims to express the human digestion system's role in food digestion and compare the capability of the models used in simulations, especially the dynamic in vitro models. Activities of the human digestive system governing food digestion and the food matrix's disintegration mechanism in the digestive system were discussed. Dynamic in vitro models and their relevance to the human digestive system were described. Advancements in the last 20 years, as well as limitations of those artificial systems, with prospects, were discussed. Extensive use and improvement on these models will extend our knowledge of the food matrix and digestive system's complex interaction. Thus, it will be possible to design next-generation foods with improved health benefits.

Abstract
Reduced physiological capability of the human gastrointestinal tract with increasing age has recently attracted considerable attention to the potential of novel technologies to modify food digestion. Thus, the aim of this study was to investigate gastric digestion of milk proteins after application of high-pressure processing (HPP) at 400 MPa 15 min, 600 MPa 5 min and 600 MPa 15 min using two static in vitro models of adults (INFOGEST) and the elderly in comparison to a fresh untreated raw milk. Peptides distribution classified based on the number of amino acids (AA) (<10, 11-15, 16-20, 21-30, >30 AA) were investigated after 0, 5, 10 and 30 min of digestion using LC-MS and multivariate data analysis. Our results show significantly less efficient protein digestion of all investigated milks in the elderly model indicated by higher percentages of longer peptides during digestion, except for the HPP milk 400 MPa 15 min, which indicated an improved and comparable digestion in the elderly as in the adult model. Furthermore, increasing the pressurization time at 600 MPa did not have a significant effect on the peptides profile during the digestion. More efficient digestion of whey proteins in HPP milks, with the majority of peptides in the 16-20 AA range, compared to fresh milk was also noticed. According to the findings of this study, HPP at 400 MPa 15 min showed the most efficient digestion of major milk proteins and thus may be considered a suitable process to improve bioaccessibility of milk proteins, especially in products intended for the elderly.

Curr Res Food Sci 2021; 4:250-261.

Abstract
Hydrocolloids are often added as functional ingredients in foods, to better design the structure of the matrix and ensure food quality and optimal sensory properties. However, much less is known about their influence on the physical and chemical changes during gastric digestion. In this study, semi-continuous in vitro gastric digestion was applied on a model food system, prepared with milk protein concentrate (MPC) (3% w/v) and 1% alginate, pectin, guar gum, as well as a 1:1 mixture of alginate and pectin. The dynamics during simulated gastric digestion were observed by measuring particle size distributions, structuring at various length scales, as well as by evaluating differences in protein breakdown. Immediately after contact with the simulated gastric fluids, all samples showed extensive aggregation and formation of different structures. MPC control dispersions (no polysaccharide) and MPC containing alginate formed large inhomogeneous aggregates. The lack of structural homogeneity affected the simulated gastric emptying: there were marked differences in the type of aggregates present at various times of emptying depending on the hydrocolloid present in the mixture. MPC containing pectin or guar gum formed macroscopically homogeneous dispersion, with rather small protein aggregates showing a large population of particles between 60 and 100 μm of diameter, with marked differences in microstructure. Pectin created large coacervates, while guar microscopic phase separated systems. These dispersions showed a higher extent of protein digestion, due to the larger surface area created for enzyme activity compared to the macroscopically phase separated matrices. In all cases, there was a large undigested fraction at the end point of 140 min. SDS PAGE demonstrated differences in the casein peptides distribution depending on the type of polysaccharide present during simulated gastric emptying. This in spite of similarities in cumulative protein emptied. It was concluded that in this semi-continuous in vitro gastric digestion model, structuring with polysaccharides has a significant impact on gastric emptying and protein digestion kinetics. Protein-hydrocolloid interactions cause differences in structuring during gastrointestinal transit. Milk protein concentrates show different proteolysis kinetics during gastric digestion depending on aggregates formed. Milk protein concentrates with alginates show a delay in digestion. Pectin and guar form homogenous dispersions during gastric digestion.

Abstract
Infant Milk Formula (IMF) is designed as a breastmilk substitute to satisfy the nutritional requirements during the first months of life. This study investigates the effects of two IMF processing technologies on cow milk protein digestion using an infant static in vitro gastrointestinal model. The degree of protein hydrolysis at the end of the gastric phase was 3.7-fold higher for IMF produced by high temperature (IMF-HT), compared to IMF produced by cascade membrane filtration (IMF-CMF), as assessed by free N-terminal group analysis. The processing type also influenced the panel of bioavailable peptides detected in basolateral compartments of Caco-2 monolayers exposed to gastrointestinal digested IMFs. In addition, IMF-CMF significantly increased tight junction protein, claudin 1, whilst IMF-HT significantly reduced tight junction integrity. In conclusion, producing IMF by CMF may preserve intestinal barrier integrity and can deliver its own unique inventory of bioavailable peptides with potential bioactivity.

Abstract
Coagulation of milk in the stomach is the first crucial step in its digestion. Using a human gastric simulator, the dynamic gastric digestion of goat and sheep skim milk were compared with that of cow skim milk, focusing particularly on their physical characteristics. The gastric contents were analyzed for changes in dry matter and microstructure, and the extent of protein digestion. The study revealed that the skim milk from all species formed a curd within the first 15 min of gastric digestion, at which time the pH was ~6.1 to 6.3. Compared with cow skim milk, the dry matter contents of the clots formed from goat and sheep skim milk were lower and higher, respectively, which was due to the differences in their total solids and protein contents. Microstructural analysis showed that, as digestion progressed, the clot structure became more cohesive, along with a decrease in moisture content, which in turn affected the breakdown and hydrolysis of caseins by pepsin; this phenomenon was similar for milk from all species. However, the extent of moisture retained in the sheep skim milk clot appeared to be lower than those of the cow and goat skim milk clots. In addition, the relative firmness of the sheep milk clot was higher than those of the cow and goat milk clots at the end of gastric digestion. The pattern of protein hydrolysis by pepsin was similar for the milk of all species, despite the differences in the proportions of different proteins. The study provided insight into the coagulation kinetics of goat and sheep skim milk under in vitro gastric digestion conditions.

Abstract
Infant formula is used as a supplement for newborns. Although bovine milk-based infant formulas dominate the market, caprine milk-based infant formula has attracted increasing attention because of its lower allergenicity. This study compared the digestive peptidome of bovine and caprine milk serum proteins by using in vitro infant simulating conditions. The result showed that the degradation pattern of milk proteins was similar, whereas the digestive rates of milk proteins differed between bovine and caprine milks. Several proteins, such as α-lactalbumin (LALBA), β-lactoglobulin (LGB), serum amyloid A protein (SAA1), glycosylation-dependent cell adhesion molecule 1 (GLYCAM1), and lactotransferrin (LTF), released more peptides during digestion of caprine milk serum than during digestion of bovine milk serum; however, more peptides derived from αS1-casein (CSN1S1) were found in bovine digesta. In addition, antimicrobial-related peptides were mostly only found in caprine intestinal digesta. The results of this study may be useful in understanding the digestion characteristics of milk serum proteins and providing guidance on the improvement of infant formula.

Abstract
Correlation and validation of the results of simulated gastrointestinal digestion of food compounds towards in vivo data is essential. The objective of this work was to monitor the digestion of milk micellar casein in the porcine upper intestinal tract and to match the outcome with the gastric in vitro digestion following the Infogest harmonized protocol. In pig duodenum, small amounts of intact caseins were present in all samples, while caseins were observed up to 60 min of gastric in vitro digestion. The peptide profile generated after in vitro and in vivo digestion showed clear similarities with specific overrepresented regions rich in proline and other hydrophobic residues. The statistical comparison of the in vivo and in vitro peptidome resulted in satisfactory correlation coefficients, up to 0.8. Therefore, the in vitro protocol used was a robust and simple model that provides a similar peptide profile than that found in porcine duodenum.

Abstract
Background: The traditional dairy-cattle-based industry is becoming increasingly diversified with milk and milk products from non-cattle dairy species. The interest in non-cattle milks has increased because there have been several anecdotal reports about the nutritional benefits of these milks and reports both of individuals tolerating and digesting some non-cattle milks better than cattle milk and of certain characteristics that non-cattle milks are thought to share in common with human milk. Thus, non-cattle milks are considered to have potential applications in infant, children, and elderly nutrition for the development of specialized products with better nutritional profiles. However, there is very little scientific information and understanding about the digestion behavior of non-cattle milks. Scope and Approach: The general properties of some non-cattle milks, in comparison with human and cattle milks, particularly focusing on their protein profile, fat composition, hypoallergenic potential, and digestibility, are reviewed. The coagulation behaviors of different milks in the stomach and their impact on the rates of protein and fat digestion are reviewed in detail. Key findings and Conclusions: Milk from different species vary in composition, structure, and physicochemical properties. This may be a key factor in their different digestion behaviors. The curds formed in the stomach during the gastric digestion of some non-cattle milks are considered to be relatively softer than those formed from cattle milk, which is thought to contribute to the degree to which non-cattle milks can be easily digested or tolerated. The rates of protein and fat delivery to the small intestine are likely to be a function of the macro- and micro-structure of the curd formed in the stomach, which in turn is affected by factors such as casein composition, fat globule and casein micelle size distribution, and protein-to-fat ratio. However, as no information on the coagulation behavior of non-cattle milks in the human stomach is available, in-depth scientific studies are needed in order to understand the impact of compositional and structural differences on the digestive dynamics of milk from different species.

Abstract
This review outlines the current use of magnetic resonance (MR) techniques to study digestion and highlights their potential for providing markers of digestive processes such as texture changes and nutrient breakdown. In vivo digestion research can be challenging due to practical constraints and biological complexity. Therefore, digestion is primarily studied using in vitro models. These would benefit from further in vivo validation. NMR is widely used to characterise food systems. MRI is a related technique that can be used to study both in vitro model systems and in vivo gastro-intestinal processes. MRI allows visualisation and quantification of gastric processes such as gastric emptying and coagulation. Both MRI and NMR scan sequences can be configured to be sensitive to different aspects of gastric or intestinal contents. For example, magnetisation transfer and chemical exchange saturation transfer can detect proton (1H) exchange between water and proteins. MRI techniques have the potential to provide molecular-level and quantitative information on in vivo gastric (protein) digestion. This requires careful validation in order to understand what these MR markers of digestion mean in a specific digestion context. Combined with other measures they can be used to validate and inform in vitro digestion models. This may bridge the gap between in vitro and in vivo digestion research and can aid the optimisation of food properties for different applications in health and disease.

Abstract
Heat treatments induce changes in the protein structure in infant milk formulas (IMFs). The present study aims to investigate whether these structural modifications affect protein digestion. Model IMFs (1.3% proteins), with a bovine or a human whey protein profile, were unheated or heated at 67.5 °C or 80 °C to reach 65% of denaturation, resulting in six protein structures. IMFs were submitted to in vitro static gastrointestinal digestion simulating infant conditions. During digestion, laser light scattering was performed to analyze IMF destabilization and SDS-PAGE, OPA assay and cation exchange chromatography were used to monitor proteolysis. Results showed that, during gastric digestion, α-lactalbumin and β-lactoglobulin were resistant to hydrolysis in a similar manner for all protein structures within IMFs (p > 0.05), while the heat-induced denaturation of lactoferrin significantly increased its susceptibility to hydrolysis. Casein hydrolysis was enhanced when the native casein micelle structure was modified, i.e. partially disintegrated in the presence of lactoferrin or covered by heat-denatured whey proteins. The IMF destabilization at the end of the gastric digestion varied with protein structures, with larger particle size for IMF containing native casein micelles. During intestinal digestion, the kinetics of protein hydrolysis varied with the IMF protein structures, particularly for IMFs containing denatured lactoferrin, exhibiting higher proteolysis degree (67.5 °C and 80 °C vs. unheated) and essential amino acid bioaccessibility (67.5 °C vs. unheated). Overall, the protein structures, generated by modulating the whey protein profile and the heating conditions, impacted the IMF destabilization during the gastric phase and the proteolysis during the entire simulated infant digestion.

Abstract
All foods harbor unique length scale-dependent structural features that can influence the release, transport, and utilization of macro- or micronutrients in the human gastrointestinal tract. In this regard, food destructuring and restructuring processes during gastric passage significantly influence downstream nutrient assimilation and feelings of satiety. This review begins with a synopsis of the effects of oral processing on food structure. Then, stomach-centric factors that contribute to the efficacy of gastric digestion are discussed, and exemplified by comparing the intragastric de- and restructuring of a number of common foods. The mechanisms of how intragastric structuring influences gastric emptying and its relationship to human satiety are then discussed. Finally, recently developed, non-destructive instrumental approaches used to quantitively and qualitatively characterize food behavior during gastric destructuring and restructuring are described.

Abstract
Digestion and health properties of food do not solely rely on the sum of nutrients but are also influenced by food structure. Dairy products present an array of structures due to differences in the origin of milk components and the changes induced by processing. Some dairy structures have been observed to induce specific effects on digestion rates and physiological responses. However, the underlying mechanisms are not fully understood. Gastric digestion plays a key role in controlling digestion kinetics. The main objective of this review is to expose the relevance of gastric phase as the link between dairy structures and physiological responses. The focus is on human and animal studies, and physiological relevant in vitro digestion models. Data collected showed that the structure of dairy products have a profound impact on rate of nutrient bioavailability, absorption and physiological responses, suggesting gastric digestion as the main driver. Control of gastric digestion can be a tool for delivering specific rates of nutrient digestion. Therefore, the design of food structure targeting specific gastric behavior could be of great interest for particular population needs e.g. rapid nutrient digestion will benefit elderly, and slow nutrient digestion could help to enhance satiety.

Abstract
The gold standard for nutrition studies is clinical trials but they are expensive and variable, and do not always provide the mechanistic information required, hence the increased use ofin vitroand increasinglyin silicosimulations of digestion.

Abstract
AbstractIntroductionThe availability of β-carotene from provitamin A rich foods in order to improve the provision of vitamin A in humans through food-based approaches is an important factor in mitigating micronutrient deficiencies. However, the extent of intestinal absorption (and subsequent availability of carotenoids to target tissues) is dependent on meal preparation, components of the meal and other intrinsic factors during gastro-intestinal (GI) digestion. Gastric emptying (GE), dictated by the caloric value of a meal, has been suggested as a critical component in determining β-carotene absorption. Indeed, dietary intake of high energy meals may just unravel the underlying factors associated with low uptake of dietary carotenoids during digestion. While several studies have reported the uptake of β-carotene as an individual pure compound under different digestive conditions(1), very few studies have assessed the effects of dietary carotenoids embedded in an energy dense meal, as would normally be consumed, on GI transit time and subsequent nutrient release.Materials and MethodsIn this study, we investigated the role of meal composition, particularly its caloric value, in modulating gastric emptying and thus the absorption of β-carotene. A step-by-step in vitro semi-dynamic model that simulates adult gastric digestion(2) was used on a prepared standard meal whose caloric value was estimated based on the Atwater system as described elsewhere with the assumption that the caloric density of the meal will assume a linear GE rate of 2kcal/min.ResultsPreliminary results indicate that, short transit times of 40 minutes, mimicking early GE, have the highest concentration (3.84 ± 0.014; Mean SD) and therefore, highest bioaccessibility (55.7%) compared to the longer transit time of 160 minutes (0.81 ± 0.002; Mean SD) and (11.8%) for β-carotene concentration and bioaccessibility from a standard meal, respectively.DiscussionThe results suggest that gastric behaviour of the food determines the kinetics of bioaccessibility that may not result in low β-carotene release and ultimately low bioaccessibility from the embedded matrix.

Abstract
Because of their unusual chemical structure, bile salts (BS) play a fundamental role in intestinal lipid digestion and transport. BS have a planar arrangement of hydrophobic and hydrophilic moieties, which enables the BS molecules to form peculiar self-assembled structures in aqueous solutions. This molecular arrangement also has an influence on specific interactions of BS with lipid molecules and other compounds of ingested food and digestive media. Those comprise the complex scenario in which lipolysis occurs. In this review, we discuss the BS synthesis, composition, bulk interactions and mode of action during lipid digestion and transport. We look specifically into surfactant-related functions of BS that affect lipolysis, such as interactions with dietary fibre and emulsifiers, the interfacial activity in facilitating lipase and colipase anchoring to the lipid substrate interface, and finally the role of BS in the intestinal transport of lipids. Unravelling the roles of BS in the processing of lipids in the gastrointestinal tract requires a detailed analysis of their interactions with different compounds. We provide an update on the most recent findings concerning two areas of BS involvement: lipolysis and intestinal transport. We first explore the interactions of BS with various dietary fibres and food emulsifiers in bulk and at interfaces, as these appear to be key aspects for understanding interactions with digestive media. Next, we explore the interactions of BS with components of the intestinal digestion environment, and the role of BS in displacing material from the oil-water interface and facilitating adsorption of lipase. We look into the process of desorption, solubilisation of lipolysis, products and formation of mixed micelles. Finally, the BS-driven interactions of colloidal particles with the small intestinal mucus layer are considered, providing new findings for the overall assessment of the role of BS in lipid digestion and intestinal transport. This review offers a unique compilation of well-established and most recent studies dealing with the interactions of BS with food emulsifiers, nanoparticles and dietary fibre, as well as with the luminal compounds of the gut, such as lipase-colipase, triglycerides and intestinal mucus. The combined analysis of these complex interactions may provide crucial information on the pattern and extent of lipid digestion. Such knowledge is important for controlling the uptake of dietary lipids or lipophilic pharmaceuticals in the gastrointestinal tract through the engineering of novel food structures or colloidal drug-delivery systems.

Abstract
Several studies have linked food structure and texture to different kinetics of nutrients delivery. Changes in some nutrients' release rate, such as proteins and lipids, could induce different physiological effects (e.g., satiety effect, reduction of postprandial lipemia). Recently, experts are proposing to consider the food as a whole instead of looking at specific nutrients, as the combination of food components and the way they are structured could change their physiological effects. This review highlights recent knowledge linking the different levels of structure of dairy products to their digestion, absorption, and physiological effects. Two examples, yogurt and cheese, will be presented to showcase the contributions of dairy food structure to nutrient release rates. One study aimed to validate whether changes in the casein:whey protein ratio or addition of fiber could influence the digestion kinetics of protein and, subsequently, satiety. A static in vitro digestion model has been used on experimental yogurts differing by their casein:whey protein ratio or dietary fiber content. A human trial with healthy men (n = 20) consuming 5 isocaloric and isoproteinemic yogurt snacks before monitoring lunch intake revealed that the yogurt formulation with increased whey protein content significantly reduced subsequent energy intake compared with its control. This result was linked to slower in vitro disintegration rate and soluble protein release for yogurts with increased whey protein, whereas no difference was observed for yogurts with fiber. A second study allowed discrimination between the effects of cheese attributes on lipid release and absorption. Nine commercial cheeses were digested in vitro, and 2 were selected for the in vivo study, in which plasma concentrations of triglycerides (TAG) were followed before and after meal consumption. The in vivo study revealed that cream cheese, but not cheddar, induced a greater increase in TAG concentrations at 2 h than did butter; this difference was linked to their in vitro disintegration. These studies demonstrate that the dairy food matrix per se modulates foods' nutritional properties. Other studies recently published on this topic will also be included, to put in perspective the important role of the dairy food matrix on release of nutrients and their physiological effects, and how this can be compared with other foods.
