We have developed a computational model to simulate hypoxia-ischaemia (HI) in the neonatal piglet brain. It has been extended from a previous model by adding the simulation of carotid artery occlusion and including pH changes in the cytoplasm. Here, simulations from the model are compared with near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) and phosphorus magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) measurements fr...

Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) has potential as a non-invasive brain monitor in a wide range of clinical scenarios. In the last decade, there has been a rapid expansion of clinical experience using NIRS to monitor cerebral oxygenation, particularly in cardiac surgery, where there is some evidence that NIRS-guided brain protection protocols might lead to a reduction in peri-operative neurolog...

Abstrak. Proximate analysis dan elemental merupakan dua dari beberapa metode yang umum digunakan untuk uji jaringan tanaman. Namun, tersebut butuh waktu, tenaga, bahan kimia, biaya mahal serta tidak real time. Sehingga para pakar mencari alternatif lain, yaitu menggunakan Spektroskop sinar infra merah dekat (Near Infrared Spectroscopy, NIRS) memprediksi kandungan unsur terkandung dalam tanah ma...

In this review the potential application of near-infrared spectroscopy for the in vitro and in vivo characterization of skin is presented. The near-infrared attenuated reflectance spectroscopy allows the determination of the overall skin water content as well as of the various components constituting the skin, i.e., stratum corneum, epidermis and dermis. This technique provides the possibility ...

Abstract Near Infrared Reflectance Spectroscopy (NIRS) is an alternative method that can be applied in the evaluation of feed ingredients. The purpose this study was to evaluate vitro digestibility value fermented cocoa pods using NIRS analysis. This used 18 samples shell waste, where material pod skin (KBK) then analysis carried out. Samples were acquired spectrum by Thermo Integrative. Chemic...

Introduction: Near Infrared Spectroscopy (NIRS) and BOLD fMRI measure complementary quantities relating to changes in the concentration of oxyand deoxyhemoglobin (HbO and HbR respectively) [1]. NIRS offers superior temporal resolution (40ms versus 2000ms), whereas BOLD offers superior spatial resolution and whole brain coverage. We are exploring the NIRS and BOLD relationship through simultaneo...

An ecologically sound approach to the problem of brush encroachment onto Israeli rangeland might be their utilization by goats, but better knowledge of the feeding selectivity and ability of goats to thrive in encroached areas is required to devise viable production systems. Direct observation of bites could provide precise and accurate estimates of diet selection, but construction of a suffici...

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) occurs when a sudden trauma causes damage to the brain. TBI can result head suddenly and violently impacts an object or pierces skull enters tissue. Secondary injuries after traumatic lead impairments on cerebral oxygenation autoregulation. Considering that secondary often take place within first hours trauma, noninvasive monitoring might be helpful in providing ear...
