✦ Synopsis


A recently developed in vitro gastrointestinal model was evaluated for the estimation of the bioavailability of Fe and phosphorus and its correlation with biovailability in vivo. In vitro experiments were carried out without and with phytase supplementation (750 FTU kg~1 feed) using rapeseed, sunÑowerseed, wholewheat and white wheat Ñour. Phytase addition during in vitro digestion of rapeseed and sunÑowerseed resulted in markedly increased dialysability of iron (67% and 20%) and phosphorus (31% and 66%). The release of free phosphorus during digestion of wholewheat and white wheat Ñour in the in vitro gastrointestinal model was observed to be correlated with the endogenous phytase activity in wheat. Comparison with di †erent in vivo studies revealed that the in vitro gastrointestinal model could be used for a relative estimation of the bioavailability of Fe and phosphorus.

Time-kill curves have frequently been employed to study the antimicrobial effects of antibiotics. The relevance of pharmacodynamic modeling to these investigations has been emphasized in many studies of bactericidal kinetics.
