the objective of this study was to determine the effect of different levels of sesame wastes (sw) on performance, milk composition and blood metabolites in lactating dairy cows. in this order, eight multiparous holstein dairy cows were used in a replicated 4×4 latin square design in four periods of 21 days. treatments were control (no sesame meal supplementation), and supplemented with 5, 10 an...

BACKGROUND In critically ill patients, glucose control with insulin mandates time- and blood-consuming glucose monitoring. Blood glucose level fluctuations are accompanied by metabolomic changes that alter the composition of volatile organic compounds (VOC), which are detectable in exhaled breath. This review systematically summarizes the available data on the ability of changes in VOC composit...

We have measured the concentration and isotopic composition of lead in blood over a 15-month period for a subject who undertook recreational shooting in outdoor and indoor firing ranges on an irregular basis. We have also measured the isotopic composition in cast lead, Cu-jacketed and Teflon-coated bullets, propellant and primer from which he assembled the cartridges. Blood lead concentration i...

Volley ballis a sub-weight-level sport, and weight requirements of the project are in the pre-race period of time to reduce body weight. Option volleyball team for dietary analysis of the survey was to understand Athletes in weight control by pre-and post-meal nutrition through body composition and blood biochemical indicators to understand the health status of athletes. The unreasonable parts ...

To test the hypothesis that the magnitude of reduction in plasma volume and work capacity following exposure to simulated microgravity is dependent on the initial level of aerobic fitness, peak oxygen uptake (VO2peak) was measured in a group of physically fit subjects and compared with VO2peak in a group of relatively unfit subjects before and after 10 days of continuous 6 degrees head-down til...

The aim of this study was to compare mean blood pressure (BP), anthropometric and body compositional measurements in three Chinese communities and to examine relationships between BP and body composition in these communities. A total of 935 adult (aged >= 25 years) men and women were randomly sampled from three communities (Chauzhou County speaking Teochew, Meixian County speaking Hakka, and Xi...
