Abstract The purpose was to test: (1) whether the decline in maximal motor unit (MU) firing rate is an invariable response when maximal voluntary contraction (MVC) torque is reduced following a submaximal muscle fatiguing task; and (2) whether fatigue‐induced slowing of contractile speed and firing rate decline are co‐dependent. Ten participants (three

ABSTRACT Rationale The thermal decomposition of (CH3)SiO1.5 gels has been systematically investigated by TG‐MS, revealing a complex temperature‐dependent evolution of gaseous species. This work demonstrates that the TG‐MS analysis, coupled with rigorous data processing, allows to set up an insightful methodology to evolve from a qualitative monitoring ...
