It has been shown that addition of extra calcium/phosphorus (Ca/P), zinc (Zn) and iron (Fe2+) to the diet results in a significant protection against cadmium (Cd) accumulation and toxicity in rats fed inorganic Cd salt. However, it is not clear whether the presence of these mineral supplements in the diet also protects against the Cd uptake from...

1. Two experiments were conducted to examine the effect of feeding D-xylose and L-arabinose on broiler performance, body composition, caecal length and weight, and liver weight. 2. Graded amounts (25, 50 and 75 g/kg) of D-xylose or L-arabinose were added to either a practical type (Exp. A) or a semi-purified (Exp. B) basal diet. As reference, a...

In a patient with tetanus we tested the hypothesis that the hyperadrenergic cardiovascular instability might be due to impairment of the baroreceptor reflex by the tetanus toxin. Baroreflex sensitivity assessed with the phenylephrine method was found to be normal. Changes in arterial pressure correlated inversely with relative changes in plasma...

Within the framework of experiments related to the association between dietary fiber and breast cancer an in vitro test system was used to study the binding of estrogens to various fibers (e.g. cholestyramin, lignin and cellulose) and fiber sources (e.g. wheat bran, cereals, seeds and legumes). Furthermore, the in vivo apparent digestibility of...

Associations between blood pressure and nutrition-related variables (body mass index, dietary intake, and 24-hr excretion of sodium, potassium, magnesium, and calcium in the urine) were investigated in men (n = 138) and women (n = 117) 65-79 years old not using drugs known to affect blood pressure and not on a diet. Among men, body mass index...

The clinical utility for autonomic research purposes of the Finapres<sup>TM</sup>, a device for measuring finger arterial pressure continuously and noninvasively, was assessed by estimating its accuracy, precision and within-subject variability in 48 subjects, aged 18-65 years, in comparison with intraarterial brachial blood pressure. At...

Microsomal metabolism of (1,2,4-TrCB) and (PeCB) was studied with special emphasis on the conversion-dependent covalent binding to protein and DNA. 1,2,4-TrCB was metabolized to 2,3,6- and 2,4,5-trichlorophenol, and to a lesser extent to 2,4,6- and 2,3,5-trichlorophenol, and trichlorohydroquinone. About 10% of all metabolites became covalently...

A simple and sensitive method for the simultaneous measurement of 5-hydroxytryptamine and its main metabolite 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid in rat brain is described. Brain tissue samples were only deproteinated and, without further extraction, were injected directly onto a high-performance liquid chromatography column and detected...

Five subjects immersed their hands and feet twice during 1 hour sessions in a calorimeter bath, filled with water at 25 degrees C. Before immersion the hand (33.0 +/- 2.2 degrees C) was warmer than the foot (30.6 +/- 2.1 degrees C) and so was the blood flow: respectively 5.8 +/- 5.2 versus 0.7 +/- 0.3 ml.min-1.100 mo tissue-1 as determined by...

To study the association between dietary fiber, beta-carotene and breast cancer, the average daily intake of these dietary components was compared among 133 incident breast cancer cases and 238 population controls. Average daily intake of cereal products, fruit and vegetables was also studied. A statistically significant lower energy-adjusted...

Using the trace gas diffusion method, the vapour resistance of three clothing ensembles (two permeable and one impermeable) was determined for four subjects, sitting, standing or walking at 0.3 and 0.9 m/s, combined with three wind speeds of <0.15, 0.7 and 4.1 m/s. Sitting increased vapour resistance by 12-36%, whereas walking and wind decreased...

A simple method of improving signal-to-noise ratios in plasma-desorption mass spectrometry of femtomole quantities is described. Background reduction is achieved by effectively shielding of the non-sample area. It is shown that detection limits can be improved by a factor of 4. Copyright © 1990 Heyden & Son Limited

An experiment was set up to quantify the relative influence of fitness, acclimatization, gender and anthropometric measures on physiological responses to heat stress. For this purpose, 12 male and 12 female subjects were exposed to a neutral [ambient temperature (T(a)) 21°C, relative humidity (r.h. 50%)], a warm, humid (T(a) 34°C, r.h. 80%) and...
