Fitness improvement was used to compare morning with afternoon exercise periods for asthmatic children. Children with persistent moderate asthma (according to GINA criteria), 8 to 11 years old, were divided into 3 groups: morning training group (N = 23), afternoon training group (N = 23), and non-training group (N = 23). The program was based on twice a week 90-min sessions for 4 months. We mea...

The dissipation behavior of octachlorodipropyl ether (OCDPE) residues in fresh tea shoots and in tea prepared under field conditions was investigated, and the transfer of residues from brewed tea to tea infusion was determined. OCDPE levels in tea shoots, prepared tea, tea infusion, and spent tea leaves were determined using a sensitive and simple method. The dissipation of OCDPE is fairly slow...

This paper reports on the application of total luminescence spectroscopy to discriminate between seven different types of tea. Bottled liquid teas; Oolong tea, Green tea, Houji tea, Japanese black tea and tea leaves (Kenya tea, Assam tea and Ceylon tea). Total luminescence spectra were recorded by measuring the emission spectra in the range 300nm to 700 nm at excitation wavelengths from 250 nm ...

STUDY OBJECTIVES Although many epidemiologic studies have shown that both short and long nighttime sleep durations are associated with increased mortality in the general population, limited data have been reported for older persons, especially those taking afternoon nap. Data from a prospective cohort study of the elderly in Taiwan were used to examine the relationship among nighttime sleep, Ch...

The objectives of this study were to determine the major components in tea leaves and tea extracts and to study the relationship between chemical content and antimutagenic activity of various tea extracts. The amount of catechins in various tea extracts was in the order: green tea (26.7%) > oolong tea (23.2%) > pouchong tea (15.8%) > black tea (4.3%). The amounts of caffeine and phenolic compou...

this study intended to compare the effect of consuming creatine and mixed creatine-carbohydrate supplementations on the anaerobic power and cellular damage indices (ck, ldh) in males aged between 15 and 18 in the city of kouhrang. for this purpose, 36 subjects (mean age 16.42±0.90 yrs, weight 54.85±9.96 kg, and height 167.75±8.28 cm) were selected by available method. first, blood samples were ...
