Download or read book Lactate written by P.R. Moret and published by Springer. This book was released on 1980-04 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book covers the principal reports and discussions which have been presented during the "Symposium on Anaerobic Metabolism and Lactic Acid" which was held in Anzere (Wallis, Switzerland) from 19th till 20th January 1978 under the patronage of the European Society of Cardiology. ~s Dr. Wilkie and Hermansen mentioned in their paper, Berzelius was the first one who recognized in 1807 "the existence of free lactic acid in the muscular fluid and thought that the amount of free lactic acid in a muscle is proportional to the extent to which it has been previously exercised". Since, many controversies have appeared, not as far as for its presence in the muscle, but as for its relations to oxygen debt or fatigue, to its physiological part, to its metabolism (oxydation or conversion to glycogen in situ), or to its pathological significance in clinical conditions. In this symposium, physiologists and biochemists tried to resolve some of the basic problems, they defined terminology and introduced new facts. Methods to determine the lactic acid or lactate have been reviewed. Lactic acid or lactate in various clinical conditions were the objectives of many collected reports in the last part of the symposium. Clinicians, who are interested in Pneumology, Diabetology, Hepatology, Angiology, Intensive Medicine or Sport Medicine, and particularly cardiologists will find precious information. The organizing committee thanks every reporter, specially the Chairmen, and everyone who took an active part in the preparation or realization of this symposium.

Download or read book Guide for Blood Lactate Threshold Estimation by Statistical Models written by Rafet IRMAK and published by Rafet Irmak. This book was released on 2021-01-26 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The aim of this study is to explain the principles of statistical models used to determine blood lactate threshold in detail. In this book, the data type and format (work load / blood lactate) that can be acquired from cycle ergometers are preferred. The principles for cycle ergometers are also valid for other ergometer types with suitable data type and format (speed / blood lactate). The first version of this books was published in 2013 in Turkish Language with earlier version of MS ExcelL. In 2004 and 2014 the author have developed two different software for direct calculation of blood lactate threshold. This international edition both includes MS Excel procedures for readers who are not familiar with statistical models of blood lactate threshold calculations and direct blood lactate threshold calculator software for advance users. It is simpler to use direct calculation software but it is not suggested for users with low experience on statistical models of blood lactate threshold.

Download or read book Metabolic Adaptation to Prolonged Physical Exercise written by POORTMANS and published by Birkhäuser. This book was released on 1975-01-01 with total page 489 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Proceedings of the Second International Symposium on Biochemistry of Exercise are centered on the effects of long lasting exercise and training. In the years following the first symposium which was held in Brussels in 1968, biochem istry of exercise has gained more importance in view of the increasing number of labora tories and scientific papers which are dealing with this field. From the topic of the first symposium - humoral modifications occurring during physical activity - our points of interest have been turned to a more limited area, namely long term exercise and training, It was important to investigate these subjects because everyone knows that in to-day's sport a good performance means hours of weekly or even daily training. Therefore, it was of considerable interest to stimulate discussions and to clarify ideas in this particular field of human activity. Our knowledge of biochemistry of exercise at the cellular level has highly progressed during the last five years. Researchers have focused their interests on the sequential uti lization of fuels, the adaptative responses of the enzyme machinery, the different types of muscle fibers. The topics of the Proceedings include: general subjects, metabolism of carbohydrates, lipids, and proteins, hormonal regulations, electrolytes, ultrastructure and fiber types of muscle, cellular enzymes. In the symposium, the current knowledge was summarized as an introductory lecture to each of these topics by prominent authors, namely: J. KEuL (Freiburg i. Br. ), M. ScHERRER (Bern), B. SAL TIN (Copenhagen), P.
