Background: Reproductive function and fertility are thought to be compromised by behaviors such as cigarette smoking, substance abuse, and caffeine consumption; however, the strength of these associations are uncertain. Many studies have examined whether caffeine and nicotine containing these affect fertility in men and women. Materials and Methods: In this study we evaluate the literature conc...

objective(s): to determine the effect of different doses of caffeine on orthodontic tooth movement (otm) in rats. materials and methods: forty male 250-300 g sprague-dawley rats were randomly divided into four groups of ten animals each and received 0 (control), 1 g/l, 2 g/l and 3 g/l caffeine in tap water for 3 days. orthodontic appliances were ligated between the maxillary first molars and in...

low calorie diets are always difficult for obese subjects to follow and lead to metabolic and behavioral adaptation. therefore, we evaluated the effect of caffeine treatment with calorie shifting diet (csd) on weight loss. female subjects (n=98; bmi≥25) completed 4-weeks control diet, 6-weeks csd (3 repeated phases; each 2-weeks) and 4-weeks follow-up diet, with or without caffeine treatment (5...

We introduce a mobile device application that displays key information about caffeine: the pharmacokinetics (time course of drug levels) and pharmacodynamics (the effects of caffeine level) visually on the iPhone, iPod Touch, and iPad. This application, Caffeine Zone, is based on an existing model of caffeine physiology using user inputs, including caffeine dose, start time, and consumption spe...

Acute caffeine administration has physiological, behavioral, and subjective effects. Despite its widespread use, few studies have described the impact of caffeine consumption in children and adolescents. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of acute caffeine administration in adolescents. We measured cardiovascular responses and snack food intake after acute administration o...

Studies were carried out on caffeine degradation using Trichosporon asahii, a yeast species isolated from caffeine contaminated soil. There was 100 % degradation of caffeine at 54 h by the yeast cells acclimated to the medium containing caffeine and sucrose both. Experiments with T. asahii growing on caffeine in the presence of 1 mM 1-aminobenzotriazole (ABT), an inhibitor of the cytochrome P-4...

Caffeine is present in a number of dietary sources consumed worldwide. Although its pharmacokinetics has been intensively explored, little is known about complexed caffeine (C-CAF) in aqueous extraction of fermented Pu-er tea. The major components of C-CAF are oxidative tea polyphenols (OTP) and caffeine. Furthermore, the C-CAF can be precipitated in low pH solution. After administering the sam...
