Cold exposure enhances fat utilization but not non-esterified fatty acids, glycerol or catecholamines availability during submaximal walking and runn…
2013
Cold exposure modulates the use of carbohydrates and fat during exercise. This phenomenon has mostly been observed in controlled cycling studies, but not during walking and running when core temperature and oxygen consumption are controlled, as both may alter energy metabolism. This study aimed at examining energy substrate availability and utilization during walking and running in the cold when core temperature and oxygen consumption are maintained. Ten lightly clothed male subjects walked or ran for 60-min, at 50% and 70% of maximal oxygen consumption, respectively, in a climatic chamber set at 0°C or 22°C. Thermal, cardiovascular, and oxidative responses were measured every 15-…
Filtration of Nordic recirculating aquaculture system wastewater : Effects on microalgal growth, nutrient removal, and nutritional value
2021
Microalgal bioremediation of recirculating aquaculture system (RAS) wastewater represents an alternative for wastewater treatment with the potential to generate valuable biomass. This study evaluated the effects of removing biological contamination and suspended solids from Nordic area RAS wastewater through filtration with 0.45 μm filters on the performance and nutritional value of microalgae. All three tested green microalgae (Haematococcus pluvialis, Monoraphidium griffithii, and Selenastrum sp.) were able to grow in raw (unfiltered) and filtered RAS wastewater. Cultivation in raw RAS wastewater decreased the ω-3 and ω-6 fatty acid content of H. pluvialis as compared to filtered wastewat…
Reproducibility of pulse wave velocity and augmentation index derived from non-invasive occlusive oscillometric tonometry analysis in adolescents
2019
The aim of this study was to investigate the short‐term reproducibility of aortic pulse wave velocity (PWVao) and augmentation index (AIx%) assessed by the non‐invasive oscillometric device. Altogether of 55 (19 boys, 36 girls) adolescents 16–19‐years‐of‐age participated in the study. PWVao and AIx% were measured during the same laboratory visit at 2 min intervals using the Arteriograph™ device. Peak oxygen uptake (V̇O2peak) was assessed by the maximal exercise test on a cycle ergometer and body fat percentage by bioelectrical impedance analysis. We studied reproducibility using intraclass correlation coefficients (ICC), coefficient variation with the root‐means‐square method expressed as p…
Biochemical profiling of temperate zone freshwater green microalgae grown in filtered and unfiltered recirculating aquaculture systems effluent and m…

Viljelemällä mikroleviä kalojen kiertovesiviljelyn jätevedessä siitä voidaan poistaa ravinteita ja tuottaa niistä biomassaa. Menetelmää voidaan käyttää korvaamaan perinteistä jäteveden käsittelyä ja kehittämään vesiviljelyn kannattavuutta. Tässä työssä verrattiin kolmen eri viherlevälajin (Haematococcus pluvialis, Monoraphidium griffithii and Selenastrum sp.) kasvua, ravinteiden poistoa, sekä rasvahappo- ja aminohappoprofiileja, kun leviä kasvatettiin suodatetussa tai suodattamattomassa kiertovedessä tai levien elatusaineessa. Monoraphidium ja Selenastrum -lajien kasvunopeudet olivat pienemmät kiertovedessä (0.64 vrk-1 ja 0.50 vrk-1) kuin levien elatusaineessa (0.72 ja 0.59 vrk-1), mutta Ha…
The metabolic responses to electrical pulse-induced contractions in C2C12 myotubes are greater in high glucose medium
2021
Osaa liikunnan terveyshyötyjen mekanismeista on vaikeaa tutkia ihmisillä tai koe-eläimillä. Viljeltyjen C2C12 myotuubien sähköpulssistimulaatiolla (EPS, engl. electrical pulse stimulation) voidaan mallintaa lihassupistuksia ja liikuntaa in vitro –olosuhteissa. EPS:n vaikutusta C2C12 myotuubien aineenvaihduntaan ei kuitenkaan tunneta tarkasti. Lisäksi C2C12 myotuubeja viljellään yleensä korkeassa ei-fysiologisessa 25 mM glukoosipitoisuudessa, mikä voi vaikuttaa EPS-vasteisiin. Tässä tutkimuksessa C2C12 myotuubeja sähköpulssistimuloitiin 24 tunnin ajan sekä matalan 5.5 mM (MG) että korkean 25 mM (KG) glukoosipitoisuuden olosuhteissa, ja aineenvaihduntatuotteiden konsentraatiot analysoitiin se…
Effects of progressive decrease of feeding frequency and re-feeding on production parameters, stomach capacity and muscle nutritional value in rainbo…
2020
Feeds and feeding constitute the major part of costs in intensive aquaculture. Any action to reduce feeding costs without negatively affecting fish production parameters and flesh quality would improve profitability of farming. Therefore, we studied the effects of feeding frequency on production parameters, stomach capacity and nutritional value of muscle in juvenile rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) in an experiment with two stages. First, during the nine-week “starvation period” we fed rainbow trout (initial weight c. 40 g) with four different feeding protocols in an attempt to adapt the fish to a progressive decrease in the number of feeding days. During the second stage, a four-week “…
The second life of terrestrial and plastic carbon as nutritionally valuable food for aquatic consumers
2023
Primary production is the basis for energy and biomolecule flow in food webs. Nutritional importance of terrestrial and plastic carbon via mixotrophic algae to upper trophic level is poorly studied. We explored this question by analysing the contribution of osmo- and phagomixotrophic species in boreal lakes and used 13C-labelled materials and compound-specific isotopes to determine biochemical fate of carbon backbone of leaves, lignin–hemicellulose and polystyrene at four-trophic level experiment. Microbes prepared similar amounts of amino acids from leaves and lignin, but four times more membrane lipids from lignin than leaves, and much less from polystyrene. Mixotrophic algae (Cryptomonas…
Differing Daphnia magna assimilation efficiencies for terrestrial, bacterial, and algal carbon and fatty acids
2014
There is considerable interest in the pathways by which carbon and growthlimiting elemental and biochemical nutrients are supplied to upper trophic levels. Fatty acids and sterols are among the most important molecules transferred across the plant–animal interface of food webs. In lake ecosystems, in addition to phytoplankton, bacteria and terrestrial organic matter are potential trophic resources for zooplankton, especially in those receiving high terrestrial organic matter inputs. We therefore tested carbon, nitrogen, and fatty acid assimilation by the crustacean Daphnia magna when consuming these resources. We fed Daphnia with monospecific diets of high-quality (Cryptomonas marssonii) an…
Lihassolutyypin vaikutus kehon rasvakudoksen määrään nuorilla ja vanhoilla miehillä

Syväoja, Heidi 2008. Lihassolutyypin vaikutus kehon rasvakudoksen määrään nuorilla ja vanhoilla miehillä. Liikuntafysiologian kandidaatintutkielma. Liikuntabiologian laitos, Jyväskylän yliopisto, 35. Lihavuus on maailmanlaajuinen yleistyvä ongelma. Ihmisen katsotaan olevan ylipainoinen, jos hänen painoindeksinsä ylittää 25, ja lihava, jos hänen painoindeksinsä on 30 tai enemmän. (McArdle ym. 2007. s.837.) Yleisen käsityksen mukaan 18. ikävuoden jälkeen sekä naisten, että miesten rasvamäärä lisääntyy progressiivisesti; Karkeasti vuosikymmenessä rasvan määrä lisääntyy 3 %, jolloin vyötärön ympärys lisääntyy samankaltaisesti. (Schuit 2006, McArdle ym. 2007. s. 900 - 902.) Ihmisen luurankolihas…
