Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleImplications of Method Chosen for Analysis of Fatty Acids in Meat: A ReviewLivia Facuri Araujo Macedo, Ellen Cristina Quirino Lacerda, Roberio Rodrigues Silva et al.The influence of the beef Fatty Acid (FA) profile on human health, has become a recurring concern. For an analysis of the lipid composition of food, it is necessary that the complex lipids be quantified in a suitable form for subsequent analysis of their composition by gas chromatography. The choice of appropriate methods of lipid extraction and esterification of fatty … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 9 Jul 2012 · 8,633 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleLow Cycle Fatigue Behavior of a Reduced End Plate Moment Connection (T-Stub)Chemin Lim, Wonchang Choi, Emmett A. Sumner, Taher Abu-LebdehProblem statement: In this research, four reduced End Plate Moment Connection (EPMC) specimens (T-stubs) are tested to verify the numerical and theoretical methods for preanalysis of the Low Cycle Fatigue (LCF) behavior of a four-bolt extended unstiffened EPMC. Approach: The T-stub specimens are bolted to a support frame and a monotonic load is applied to the stem plate. Yield line … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 12 Jan 2012 · 7,399 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEffects of Metabolite Combinations Produced by Lactobacillus plantarum on Plasma Cholesterol and Fatty Acids in PigletsT. V. Thu, Loh Teck Chwen, H. L. Foo et al.Problem statement: Hypercholesterol and fatty acids in plasma are the main causes for cardiovascular disease. Reduction of risk factors from diet that associated with cardiovascular disease has much attention in animals as well as in human. The objective of this study was to investigate the effects of feeding liquid metabolite combinations produced by five L. plantarum strains on the fatty … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 27 Dec 2010 · 7,632 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEffect of Cycle Duration and Phasing on Thermomechanical Fatigue of Dog-Bone Specimens Made form SteelAchegaf Zineb, Khamlichi Abdellatif, Francisco Mata CabreraProblem statement: Lifetime of standard dog-bone specimens made form steel as affected by phasing between thermal cycles and strains cycles and by cycle duration in thermomechanical fatigue is assessed under various conditions of loading. Approach: The methodology used was based on finite element post-processing analysis by specialized fatigue software package that takes into account coupling of damage from three primary … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 30 Nov 2010 · 7,697 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleThe Development of a Revised Canadian Myalgic Encephalomyelitis Chronic Fatigue Syndrome Case DefinitionLeonard A. Jason, Meredyth Evans, Nicole Porter et al.Problem statement: Several investigators have indicated that case definitions for Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS) are characterized by vaguely worded criteria that lack operational definitions and guidelines. The most widely used CFS case definition is the Fukuda et al. criteria, which uses polythetic criteria (i.e., patients are only required to have four out of a possible eight symptoms). Yet two of … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 33,208 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleThe Effects of Fatigue and Chronic Ankle Instability on Dynamic Postural ControlSeyed Hossein Hosseinimehr, Hassan Daneshmandi, Ali Asghar NorastehProblem statement: The proprioception information is a prerequisite for balance, body's navigation system and the movement coordinator. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of fatigue and chronic ankle instability on dynamic postural control. Approach: Thirty physical education students (14 males, 16 females) in two groups (15 healthy age = 21.78±0.79 years, height = 168.3±5.6 cm and … …Physics International, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2010 · 8,870 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleThe Effect of Exhausting Exercise Induced Fatigue on the Double-Leg Balance of Elite Male AthletesKhodadad Letafatkar, Mohammad Hossein Alizadeh, Mohammad Reza KordiProblem statement: Fatigue is a complex phenomenon that can be described as a time-dependent exercise-induced reduction in the maximal force generating capacity of a muscle. The aim of the present study was to examine the effect of exhausting exercise induced fatigue on the double-leg balance of elite male athletes. Approach: This study included 30 apparently healthy young adults (handball and … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2009 · 7,892 accessesView PDFCite
