Abstract:
There were three principle aims to this thesis. Firstly, the acquisition protocols of clinical blood flow apparatus were investigated in order to optimise them for both cross-sectional and longitudinal application. Secondly, the effects of physiological factors including age and systematic circulation on ocular blood flow were investigated. Finally, the ocular perfusion characteristics of patients diagnosed with ocular diseases considered to be of a vascular origin were investigated. The principle findings of this work are:- 1) Optimisation of clinical investigations Photodiode sensitivity of

Background: The ice hockey community is founded on masculine norms and values, and the hockey rink is often described as “the home of men’s ice hockey”. Despite a growing popularity, women’s ice hockey has low priority in comparison to the men’s game. On top of that, the women’s game does not allow body checking, which makes it deviant from what some see as “the real game of ice hockey”. The checking prohibition causes physiological requirements to differ from the men’s game, and since women are underrepresented in ice hockey research, not much is known regarding the physiological- and socio-c

Many studies suggested that D. indusiata polysaccharide is β-d-glucan. This natural polysaccharide possessed excellent potential bioactivities such as anticancer, antitumor, immunomodulation activity, antiox

The generated tolerogenic DCs might be a useful tool for the induction of specific unresponsiveness. Luteolin is a kind of flavonoid that exists in many types of plants including vegetables, fruits, and medicinal herbs. It has multiple biological activities like anti-cancer and anti-oxidation. Besides, luteolin has been evidenced its anti-inflammatory effect through blockade of NF-κB activation in macrophages. Wheth

Abstract:
Despite the popularity of field hockey very little research has investigated the physical requirements of, and the responses to, a game of field hockey. This study investigated the physiological characteristics of six elite women hockey players, their movement patterns during a game and the accompanying acute physiological responses. Players were chosen from the Victorian State Women's Field Hockey team on the basis of playing positions characterised by a high work-rate.

Abstract:
The fecal flora of healthy bottle or breast-fed infants was examined for the presence of Bifidobacterium. Identification was based on the presence of fructose-6-phosphate phosphoketolase, which is found only in these bacteria. No bifidobacteria were recovered from bottle-fed infants. However, bifidobacteria were readily isolated from 15 day to 3 month old breast-fed infants. Further characterization revealed B. breve and B. longum were the dominant species in feces of breast-fed infants, but atypical strains also were found.

Native chicken, broiler, mule duck and Pekin duck were used as the experiment materials. In order to understand the tibial development process in the embryonic stage, type II collagen and glycosaminoglycans were assayed for studying of different sources morphology of chondrocyte in vivo.
