Whole-body calorimetry studies in adult men

Changes of Nerve - Muscle Performance of Elderly Men in Response to Whole Body Vibration

Background and Aims: Whole body vibration exercise by affecting the neuromuscular system and mechanical mechanisms increase muscles strength. This study investigated the effect of whole body vibration training on neuromuscular function of elderly men. Methods: Based on a randomized controlled trial design, 72 retired elderly men with a mean age of 73.00 ± 2.67 years participated in thisstudy. A...

Effects of meal consumption on whole body leucine and alanine kinetics in young adult men.

The effects of meal consumption on plasma leucine and alanine kinetics were studied using a simultaneous, primed, continuous infusion of L-[1-13C]leucine and L-[3,3,3-2H3]alanine in four healthy, young, adult male subjects. The study included an evaluation of the effect of sampling site on plasma amino acid kinetics, with blood being drawn simultaneously from an antecubital and dorsal heated ha...

Whole body counting in erythrocyte survival studies.

In Cancer Research, 26: 198-201, Feb. 1966, Brodsky et at. describe a method for determining the red cell survival in mice, based on whole-body counting after injection of 51Cr-labeled red cells. Inspired by this article, we decided to use the method which seemed to have some obvious advantages over the sampling method. Three hundred /L1. of red cells, labeled with 1 uc. 51Cr ( specific activit...

Differential Scanning Calorimetry of Whole

Cereal Chem. 66(4):317-320 The thermal properties of whole grain milled rice and milled rice flour samples. Gelatinization enthalpies were about 40% greater in whole grain were investigated by differential scanning calorimetry. Thermal curves rice compared to rice flour for each variety. Heating rate studies conducted were obtained on representative long, medium, short, and very low amylose on ...
