We investigated in 11 female ultra-runners during a 100 km ultra-run, the association between fluid intake and prevalence of exercise-associated hyponatremia in a cross-sectional study. Athletes drank ad libitum and recorded their fluid intake. They competed at 8.0 (1.0) km/h and finished within 762 (91) min. Fluid intake was 4.1 (1.3) L during the race, equal to 0.3 (0.1) L/h. Body mass decrea...

Uma análise de variância de três fatores foi usada para testar a significância do tipo de recipiente, tipo de material e número de replicatas na preparação de amostras de sedimento utilizando um banho ultra-sônico. A extração convencional com HCl 1,0 mol L, por 0,5, 4 e 12 h, foi modificada, e o banho ultra-sônico foi aplicado para diminuir o tempo de preparo de amostras. Os metais traço foram ...

The stability of a general Linear Time-Invariant (LTI) Ultra-WideBand (UWB) Channel Impulse Response (CIR) model is investigated. Since the s-domain or z-domain function of the UWB CIR has an extremely high number of singularities, it cannot be automatically guaranteed that none of the poles falls on the right-half of the s-plane or outside the unit-circle of the z-plane. Hence the stability an...

in this paper, we establish some new results in ultra bessel sequences and ultra bessel sequences of subspaces. also, we investigate ultra bessel sequences in direct sums of hilbert spaces.specially, we show that {( fi, gi)}∞ i=1 is a an ultra bessel sequencefor hilbert space h ⊕ k if and only if { fi}∞ i=1 and {gi}∞ i=1 are ultrabessel sequences for hilbert spaces h and k, respectively.

objective: pseudomonas aeruginosa is the major cause of septicemia and wound infection in burned patients. immunotraphy is the best practical way for prevention and treatment of these infections. flagella as one of the most important bacterial virulence factors has important role in attachment, motility, chemotaxis and tlr-5-dependent immune response so that it propounded as a vaccine candidate...

Este artigo apresenta os resultados da determinação de 12 hidrocarbonetos policíclicos aromáticos (HPAs) em material particulado atmosférico (MPA) coletado na cidade de Niterói, RJ, Brasil. Amostras quinzenais de MPA foram coletadas durante 24 h, entre junho/2005 e maio/2006, no Campus da Universidade Federal Fluminense, localizado em uma área residencial e comercial no Centro de Niterói. Um am...

This study of soil conditions was carried out on 30 meadow soil (podzol) samples from the vicinity of the soda ash heap in Jaworzno, supplemented by analyses of 18 samples of waste deposited on the heap. In all samples, the total content of macroelements (Ca and Na) and heavy metals (Cd, Cr, Ni, Pb and Zn) as well as pH were analysed. The element concentrations were measured using inductively c...
