Effect of ethanol on yeast film formation

1999

<p style="text-align: justify;">In this study, we have investigated the influence of ethanol on yeast film formation and cell surface hydrophobicity (CSH). A yeast strain (P3) previously isolated from film yeast was grown in a medium containing increasing ethanol concentration ranging from 0 to 14 p. cent (v/v). It results from this study that up to 10 p. cent ethanol, the greater was the ethanol concentration, the greater was the growth of film. Using two different techniques (phase partition method, magnobead assay), we have shown that ethanol altered the CSH of the yeast. The measured hydrophobicity (p. cent) of cells grown without ethanol was 65 p. cent compared with 81 p. cent wi…

Effects of eight weeks of physical training on physical performance and heart rate variability in children

2017

Kraama, Liisa. 2013. Effects of eight weeks physical training on physical performance and heart rate variability in children. University of Jyvaskyla, Department of Biology of Physical Activity. Master’s Thesis in Exercise Physiology. 52 pp. Physical activity and aerobic capacity have decreased among children and adolescents during the last decades. Physically active adults have been shown to have higher heart rate variability (HRV) than less active adults. In adults training-induced changes in physical performance have been shown to be related to increase in HRV, especially in high frequency component (HF), which is a marker of parasympathetic activity. The purpose of this study was to exa…

Ascorbic acid content and transcriptional profiling of genes involved in its metabolism during development of petals, leaves, and fruits of orange (C…

2021

Citrus fruit is one of the most important contributors to the ascorbic acid (AsA) intake in humans. Here, we report a comparative analysis of AsA content and transcriptional changes of genes related to its metabolism during development of petals, leaves and fruits of Valencia Late oranges (Citrus sinensis). Petals of close flowers and at anthesis contained the highest concentration of AsA. In fruits, AsA content in the flavedo reached a maximum at color break, whereas the pulp accumulated lower levels and experienced minor fluctuations during development. AsA levels in leaves were similar to those in the flavedo at breaker stage. The transcriptional profiling of AsA biosynthetic, degradatio…

The Influence of Collective Behavior on Pacing in Endurance Competitions

2015

A number of theoretical models have been proposed in recent years to explain pacing strategies observed in individual competitive endurance events. These have typically related to the internal regulatory processes that inform the making of decisions relating to muscular work rate. Despite a substantial body of research which has investigated the influence of collective group dynamics on individual behaviors in various animal species, this issue has not been comprehensively studied in individual athletic events. This is somewhat surprising given that athletes often directly compete in close proximity to one another, and that collective behavior has also been observed in other human environme…

Monitoring the Internal and External Loads of Young Team Handball Players during Competition

2021

This study aimed to examine the internal- and external-training-load (ITL and ETL, respectively) during a match of young handball players. Field testing included heart-rate monitoring (memory belt, Suunto) as a marker of ITL and accelerometry (motion-biosensor, Actical Respironcis, Philips) as a marker of ETL. Time motion analysis data were obtained by recording the player’s game activities and later analysed with the Matlab software package. T-test and Pearson-product-moment correlation coefficient were used to examine the differences and the relationship between variables collected in the study. The t-test analysis did not show significant differences between the total distance covered (2…

Analysis of shots in relation to the outcome in elite women's water polo matches. [Análisis de los lanzamientos en función del resultado en partidos …

2018

Abstract The aim of the current study was to investigate the shot performance of elite female water polo players according to their match outcome during three international tournaments, the 2012 Olympic Games, 2013 and 2014 FINA World Leagues. Twenty-four official matches footage [2012 Summer Olympic Games, n=8; 2013 FINA World League, n=8 and 2014 FINA World League, n=8] were obtained and analysed. The results showed that a similar playing style was used in both the 2012 and 2013 tournaments, independently of the outcome while in the 2014 FINA World League, winning teams performed more shots after displacement, more shots ending to zone 4 and scored more goals than losing ones (and fewer s…

Perfil del usuario de centros deportivos privados, según género, edad y nivel de antigüedad

2019

En los últimos años ha surgido una extrema necesidad de perfilar a los usuarios de instalaciones deportivas debido al crecimiento en el sector tratando de ser cada vez más competitivos adecuando la oferta a la demanda (Nuviala et al., 2014). El objetivo del presente estudio fue definir el perfil del usuario, en función de la calidad, satisfacción, valor percibido e inten- ciones futuras, analizando si éstas varían según el género, la edad y el nivel de antigüedad, en 481 socios de tres centros deportivos privados. Para ello, se les administró un cuestionario y se realizó una prueba t- para muestras independientes y un estudio de contraste grupo a grupo con la prueba t- del test de Scheffé y…

Perfil del usuario de la fundación deportiva municipal de valencia y sus hábitos de práctica deportiva

2019

El objetivo de la presente investigación es analizar el uso de las instalaciones de la Fundación Deportiva Municipal de Valencia y determi- nar el perfil del usuario de las mismas. Para ello se recogen un total de 727 cuestionarios vía online formados por diferentes secciones extraídas a partir de la bibliografía existente. Los resultados muestran una alta satisfacción e intenciones futuras de los usuarios. Además, los usuarios muestran una ma- yor pasión armoniosa por el deporte en comparación con la pasión obsesiva. La mayor parte de la práctica deportiva se concentra entre semana y a partir de las 19:00h. Los usuarios de las instalaciones en su mayoría tienen trabajo y estudios universit…
