    ObjectiveThe aim of this study was to quantify the bioaccessibility of phosphorus from amino acid-based formulas (AAFs) under different digestive conditions.MethodsWe developed in-vitro batch digestion models with stomach digestion at different pH mimicking the normal digestive condition and conditions representing use of acid-suppressive medication. To validate bioaccessibility findings, we devised a low phosphorus murine model to test phosphorus bioavailability under compromised digestive conditions using proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) to neutralize stomach pH.ResultsIn vitro phosphorus bioaccessibility of AAFs Neocate® Infant and Neocate Junior ranged between 57% and 65% under normal digestive conditions for infants (stomach pH 3.5) and between 38% and 46% under conditions that simulated bypass of stomach acidification, which is comparable to control diet and two EleCare® AAFs. In vivo bioavailability analysis showed that both Neocate formulas were able to normalize plasma phosphorus levels when administered to low phosphorus mice along with PPIs (control diet + PPI 8 ± 0.4; Neocate Infant 10.1 ± 0.9; Neocate Junior 9.2 ± 0.6; EleCare Infant 8.6 ± 0.4; EleCare Junior 8.7 ± 0.5; n = 8-10; P < 0.0001 versus baseline 3.4 ± 0.2 mg/dL). In comparison, plasma phosphorus levels remained lower on the low phosphorus diet (5.7 ± 0.2 mg/dL). Furthermore, urinary phosphorus/creatinine and intact fibroblast growth factor 23 were significantly lowered by low phosphorus diet. In contrast, intact parathyroid hormone and 1,25-dihydroxy vitamin D decreased and increased, respectively, and these parameters likewise normalized in mice administered AAFs.ConclusionThe present findings indicated that phosphorus bioaccessibility in the in-vitro batch digestion model translates well into phosphorus bioavailability in mice even under compromised digestive conditions that bypass gastric acidification.Copyright © 2021 The Author(s).
