One hundred and fourty-one lambs showing signs of pneumonia
and/or enteritis from four different flocks in western Oregon were
sampled for virus isolation. Two ovine adenoviruses, antigenically
distinct from each other and from bovine adenoviruses, were
isolated from the nasal mucosa and feces of two lambs. The lambs
were showing...
A kinetics-based enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (KELA) for detection of serum IgG antibody against bovine respiratory syncytial virus (BRSV) was developed and optimized. Optimization factors tested included brand of microELISA plate, length of incubation periods at various temperatures, type of conjugate, purified versus precipitated antigen preparations, type of dilution buffer as...
The purpose of this investigation was to determine the
sprint start time to the first 10 and to the second 10
meters as a result of alteration of starting block angles
and lateral block spacings.
One male world class, two female college level, one
male and one female high school...
The purpose of this study was: 1) to compare the
change in QT interval values before, during, and after
exercise following carbohydrate depletion and loading, and
2) to assess the change following vitamin B-6 supplementation.
ECG monitoring devices and bicycle ergometers were
used to collect ECG tracings and control the...
The purpose of this study was to monitor coronary responses
occurring in the S-T segment of an electrocardiogram before, during
and after exercise following a "standard" carbohydrate-loading schedule with varied vitamin B-6 supplementation. The study was conducted
using four college-aged males who had been training a minimum of two
years...
The purpose of this study was to determine the
effect of immediate prior meditation (transcendental
meditation) and relaxation upon the pattern of physiological
response and performance of a fine motor and
gross motor task. A second purpose of this study was
to determine whether the long term regular practice of...
Ankle injuries account for 10-20% of time loss injuries in sports
with almost 85% of these injuries being sprains, the majority of
which occur to the lateral ligamentous complex. With statistics such
as these it becomes important that the Athletic Trainer establish a
method for effective and efficient means to...
Right cerebral hemispheric lateralization for spatial
perception has been reported by using visual and tactile
spatial tasks in brain-damaged patients, split-brain
patients, and normal subjects. The main purpose of the
present study was to investigate whether or not kinesthetic
spatial perception was dominantly processed with the right
cerebral hemisphere as...
