INFOGEST static in vitro simulation of gastrointestinal food digestion
Open accessAbstract
Developing a mechanistic understanding of the impact of food structure and composition on human health has increasingly involved simulating digestion in the upper gastrointestinal tract. These simulations have used a wide range of different conditions that often have very little physiological relevance, and this impedes the meaningful comparison of results. The standardized protocol presented here is based on an international consensus developed by the COST INFOGEST network. The method is designed to be used with standard laboratory equipment and requires limited experience to encourage a wide range of researchers to adopt it. It is a static digestion method that uses constant ratios of meal to digestive fluids and a constant pH for each step of digestion. This makes the method simple to use but not suitable for simulating digestion kinetics. Using this method, food samples are subjected to sequential oral, gastric and intestinal digestion while parameters such as electrolytes, enzymes, bile, dilution, pH and time of digestion are based on available physiological data. This amended and improved digestion method (INFOGEST 2.0) avoids challenges associated with the original method, such as the inclusion of the oral phase and the use of gastric lipase. The method can be used to assess the endpoints resulting from digestion of foods by analyzing the digestion products (e.g., peptides/amino acids, fatty acids, simple sugars) and evaluating the release of micronutrients from the food matrix. The whole protocol can be completed in ~7 d, including ~5 d required for the determination of enzyme activities.

Quantifying the local exposure that matters for interactions cannot be inferred from plasma concentrations but requires dedicated methods.
“Quantifying the local exposure that truly matters for interactions cannot be inferred from plasma concentrations but requires dedicated methods [48,62].”
From Berberine-Drug Interactions: Mechanisms, Clinical Relevance and Risk Stratification-A Narrative Review (2026) · cites this paper as [62]
The Bioaccessibility of phytochemicals section (p. 28) describes dedicated digestion and separation methods for assessing the bioaccessible fraction of dietary compounds. It does not say that plasma concentrations cannot indicate local exposure, or establish which local exposure matters for interactions. (LLM, conf=0.79)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredINFOGEST was further improved to include an oral phase and lipase enzyme during the gastric phase (INFOGEST 2.0).
“This is referred to as the INFOGEST method, and was further improved upon to include an oral phase and lipase enzyme during the gastric phase (INFOGEST 2.0) (Brodkorb et al., 2019).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
