a Schematic drawing shows the structure of intestine. b Projected intestine profiles of one free-moving mouse and one anesthetized mouse. c A comparison of frequency at different time points for free-moving mice and anesthetized mice. Free-moving mice showed higher motility frequency than the anesthetized mice (mean ± s.d., n = 3 mice). d The intestine of free-moving mice visualized by TIP at different time points post gavage. Scale bar: 10 mm. e The intestine of anesthetized mice visualized by TIP at different time points post gavage. Scale bar: 10 mm.
