Fluorescence imaging in vivo visualizes delayed gastric emptying of liquid enteral nutrition containing pectin

BACKGROUND: Semi-solidification by gelation or increased viscosity could slow the influx of liquid enteral nutrition (EN) into the small intestine. A liquid EN formula containing pectin that gels under acidic conditions such as those found in the stomach has been developed. A new near-infrared fluor...
