Hydration and Fluid Needs during Physical Activity [PDF]
Hydration during physical activity is a key component of both performance and safety. Several factors impact hydration, including, but not limited to: environmental conditions, such as heat and humidity; clothing and cooling strategies; individual fluid ...

An In vivo Comparison of Biomimetic vs. Traditional Skin Moisturization [PDF]
The aim of this study was to determine whether a biomimetic cream can deliver superior moisturisation to the skin of human volunteers aged over 60, compared to the effects of a conventional moisturiser containing high levels of petrolatum and mineral oil.

Sex difference in initial thermoregulatory response to dehydrated exercise in the heat
Although it is well established that dehydration has a negative impact on thermoregulation during exercise in the heat, it is unclear whether this effect of dehydration is different between men and women, or across the phases of the menstrual cycle (MC).

Enzyme activity and flexibility at very low hydration [PDF]
Recent measurements have demonstrated enzyme activity at hydrations as low as 3%. This raises the question of whether hydration-induced enzyme flexibility is important for activity. Here, to address this, picosecond dynamic neutron scattering experiments

A randomized trial to assess the potential of different beverages to affect hydration status: development of a beverage hydration index [PDF]
Background: The identification of beverages that promote longer-term fluid retention and maintenance of fluid balance is of real clinical and practical benefit in situations in which free access to fluids is limited or when frequent breaks for urination ...

Investigating the Effect of CNTs on Early Age Hydration and Autogenous Shrinkage of Cement Composite
In this study, the effect of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) on the physical properties of cement composites was investigated. The mechanism of the change of autogenous shrinkage of CNTs-reinforced cement composites was also examined.
