Rebound resilience of tendons in the feet of sheep (Ovis aries).
نویسندگان
چکیده
The interosseous muscle of the fore foot of the sheep is multipennate, with large tendons but extremely short muscle fibres. It is believed to save energy in locomotion by elastic storage in its tendons and its sheath. Its rebound resilience (at 5-7 Hz and 20-37 degrees C) is about 0.62.

متن کاملAnti-inflammatory action of the Ovis aries lipidic fraction associated to therapeutic ultrasound in an experimental model of tendinitis in rats (Rattus norvegicus).
BACKGROUND Studies have demonstrated the beneficial effects of topical application of fatty acids as healing agents. The lipid fraction of Ovis aries have an anti-inflammatory action that accelerates the healing process. Ultrasound increases blood flow and the extensibility of collagen structures and tendons. OBJECTIVES To assess the anti-inflammatory action of the Ovis aries lipid fraction a...
