The influence of selected factors on the muscle fibre diameter according to the sexual classification of slaughter cattle [PDF]
Acta Universitatis Agriculturae et Silviculturae Mendelianae Brunensis, 2010 The aim of this study was to evaluate the muscle fibre diameter of bulls (n = 136), heifers (n = 38) and steers (n = 18). The influence of age at slaughter, weight at slaughter, net daily weight gain, SEUROP meatiness and SEUROP fatness on the muscle ...

A note on an attempt to select for muscle fibre diameter in mice
Animal Science, 1975 SUMMARYTwo-way selection for muscle fibre diameter in mice was practised for four generations. The response was small and did not differ significantly from zero.

Clinical Hemorheology and Microcirculation, 2013 Polymers exhibiting cell-selective effects represent an extensive research field with high relevance for biomedical applications e.g. in the cardiovascular field supporting re-endothelialization while suppressing smooth muscle cell overgrowth. Such an endothelial cell-selective effect could be recently demonstrated for a copolyetheresterurethane (PDC ...

The influence of fibre length, diameter and concentration on the strength and strain to failure of glass fibre-reinforced polyamide 6,6 [PDF]
, 2008 Results of an investigation of the mechanical performance of injection moulded long glass fibre-reinforced polyamide 6,6 composites are presented. The glass fibre content in these composites was varied over the range 10-50% by weight using fibres with ...

Clinical classification of cancer cachexia: phenotypic correlates in human skeletal muscle. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 BACKGROUND: Cachexia affects the majority of patients with advanced cancer and is associated with a reduction in treatment tolerance, response to therapy, and duration of survival. One impediment towards the effective treatment of cachexia is a validated

MUSCLE FIBRE DIAMETER AND SENSITIVITY TO NEUROMUSCULAR BLOCKING DRUGS
British Journal of Anaesthesia, 1993 In order to investigate the relationship between muscle fibre composition or size and muscle sensitivity to neuromuscular blocking drugs, data on the fibre composition and size of the ulnaris lateralis, thyroarytenoideus, cricoarytenoideus dorsalis and diaphragm muscles of the goat were related to the rate of recovery of these muscles from ...
