A Study in Biokinetics.

Impact of 131I diagnostic activities on the biokinetics of thyroid remnants.

UNLABELLED Recent publications described many discrepant findings about thyroid "stunning" after the administration of (131)I diagnostic activities to patients with differentiated thyroid carcinoma. Stunning may play a major role in reducing the therapeutic efficacy of high (131)I activities given for ablation therapy. METHODS Participation in a multicenter study to investigate differences in...

Biokinetics of Cesium in Perna Viridis

The biokinetics of Cs in four compartments in the green-lipped mussel Perna viridis, namely, gill, viscera, adductor muscle, and foot, were studied. First-order linear differential equations were set up for these four compartments, and their solutions were used to fit the experimental data. The parameters governing the biokinetics, which depend on the elimination rate from each compartment and ...

Exogenous Ketone Supplement Ingestion And Submaximal Exercise Response in Trained, Male Cyclists: A Randomised, Double-blind Study

Background. The acute ingestion of ketone body supplements can improve exercise responses such as oxygen consumption and blood lactate. Additionally, ketone body supplements show increases in circulating βhb concentration, matching those of someone in a state of nutritional ketosis. Studies testing ketone body supplements have reported different results in exercise response and varying gastroin...

Radionuclides Biokinetics Database (RBDATA-EULEP)

Comparative granule characteristics and biokinetics of sucrose-fed and phenol-fed UASB reactors.

Two upflow anaerobic sludge bed (UASB) reactors were fed with a non-inhibitory substrate sucrose and an inhibitory substrate phenol, respectively, to compare granule characteristics and biokinetics. The average size of biomass granules in the sucrose-fed UASB reactor was slightly larger than that of the phenol-fed reactor. The average microbial density was significantly higher in the phenol-fed...
