Accurate Measurement of Intestinal Transport
Project Description
Design for Accurate Measurement of Intestinal Transport — Rainbow trout are exceptional biological models due to their well-characterized genome and nutritional requirements. They are used as a model to provide data regarding nutritional uptake. Our team designed and built an intestinal transport chamber for future intestinal nutrient uptake studies.
