2. Nanocapsule - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nanocapsule

   Relatively new research involves the encapsulation of digestive enzymes within a non-toxic polymer shell. The enzyme filled nanoshell has been proven in lab mice to absorb ethyl alcohol from the bloodstream, therefore resulting in reduced blood alcohol levels.

3. First pass effect - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/First_pass_effect

   First-pass metabolism may occur in the liver (for propranolol, lidocaine, clomethiazole, and nitroglycerin) or in the gut (for benzylpenicillin and insulin). [4] The four primary systems that affect the first pass effect of a drug are the enzymes of the gastrointestinal lumen, [5] gastrointestinal wall enzymes, [6] [7] [8] bacterial enzymes [5] and hepatic enzymes.

   The formulations are generally hard capsules filled with gastro-resistant granules. Pancrelipases and pancreatins are similar, except pancrelipases has an increased lipase component. [citation needed] Pancreatin is a mixture of several digestive enzymes produced by the exocrine cells of the pancreas. It is composed of amylase, lipase and ...
