Effects of chiral contaminants to aquatic organisms: pharmaceuticals as model compounds for enantiomer specific ecological hazard assessment.
(Houston, Texas : SETAC Press., 2006-07)In the present study, enantiospecific effects of chiral contaminants were explored using two chiral pharmaceutical contaminants as model compounds. These compounds are the selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor antidepressant ... -
The effects of combined creatine monohydrate supplementation and resistance training on body composition, muscle strength, and markers of satellite cell activity in older males.
(2009-08-26)Aging is associated with gradual loss of muscle mass, termed sarcopenia, which often leads to progressive disability and loss of independence. Though resistance exercise has shown to be an effective method at reducing the ... -
Effects of concentric and eccentric muscle contractions on IL-6 signaling in human skeletal muscle and downstream regulation of HSP-72 gene expression : Is IL-6 signaling involved in exercise-induced cytoprotection?
(2009-04-01)Purpose: To determine the effects of concentric and eccentric muscle contractions on IL-6 signaling and its possible downstream regulation of HSP-72 expression in human skeletal muscle, and whether contraction-induced ... -
The effects of creatine ethyl ester supplementation combined with resistance training on body composition, muscle mass and performance, and intramuscular creatine uptake in males.
(2008-12-01)Creatine monohydrate has become one of the most popular ingested nutritional supplements due to its potential enhancement of athletic performance. Creatine absorption from the serum into skeletal muscle occurs through the ... -
The effects of creatine monohydrate supplementation on creatine transporter activity and creatine metabolism in resistance trained males.
(2008-10-15)Creatine is a nutritional supplement that is used for its potential performance enhancing (ergogenic) benefits. It constitutes an important component of the immediate energy system, by which ATP is regenerated during ... -
The Effects of D-Amino Acids on Staphylococcus Aureus SA113 Biofilm Formation
(2014-06-02)Biofilms play a major role in the development of drug-resistant, persistent bacterial infections. D-amino acids have been proposed as biofilm inhibitors that prevent biofilm formation by incorporating into the peptidoglycan. ... -
Effects of debt relief under the enhanced HIPC Initiative and the MDRI on developing countries using a time-shifted difference-in differences strategy.
(2017-06-28)The IMF and World Bank launched the Heavily Indebted Poor Countries (HIPC) Initiative in 1996 to alleviate the debt overhang problem in developing countries. They amended the program to the Enhanced HIPC Initiative in 1999 ... -
Effects of eight weeks of 6-OXO supplementation on serum hormone profiles and on serum and urinary clinical safety markers in resistance-trained males.
(2006-05-28)The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of 6-OXO, an aromatase inhibitor, in a dose dependent manner on serum hormone levels and clinical safety markers in resistance trained males. Sixteen healthy trained ... -
Effects of eight weeks of curcumin and Boswellia serrata supplementation on plasma markers of inflammation and antioxidant activity in chronic kidney disease patients.
(2010-10-08)The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of 8 weeks of curcumin and Bowellia serrata supplementation on changes in systemic inflammation and antioxidant activity in chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients. Sixteen ... -
The effects of eight weeks of heavy resistance training and branched chain amino acid and carbohydrate supplementation on muscle performance and body composition.
(, 2011-09-14)Branched chain amino acid supplements are becoming one of the more popular and well known supplements currently on the market. It is thought that branched chain amino acids support the body during resistance training by ... -
