The intestinal motility patterns were documented with time lapse imaging for 14 hours. The images were used to construct spatio-temporal maps for gut motility analysis; i.e. to determine the speed, amplitude, frequency, travelled distance, direction, and initiation site of waves of muscle contractions. The experiments were repeated for RNA sampling and deep seq analysis. Gene expression analysis showed that intestines administered intact lipids clustered closer to the empty intestines compared to those given hydrolyzed lipids.
