The Long Run: Inside the race to keep young female runners healthy and performing at the top of their game
… as professional and collegiate runners have shared their experiences with the condition, known as Relative Energy Deficiency in Sport (RED-S). The conversation has largely overlooked the middle- and high-school aged girls who are also affected, however. Doctors and researchers are now in a race …

Analytical Separation of Zirconium-95 and Niobium-95 from Uranium Irradiated by Thermal Neutrons
… sample. Different procedures were then considered for the determination of zirconium and niobium; gamma ray detection, X-ray Fluorescence and a colorimetric method using Alizarin Red-S. Alizarin Red-S was not found suitable for this research due to the interference of niobium, so the other …

Effect of Implant Surface Microtopography by Hydroxyapatite Grit-Blasting on Adhesion, Proliferation and Differentiation of Osteoblast-like Cell Line, MG-63
… assay, mineralization assay using alizarin red-s staining and gene expression of osteoblastic differentiation marker using RT-PCR or ELISA. Results: Comparing with machined group, osteoblastic cell adhesion, proliferation and ALP activity of RBM surfaces were shown higher. Also, they …

A mixed-method approach to low energy availability in elite track cyclists
Relative Energy Deficiency in Sport (RED-S) is a complex condition that has a range of health consequences involving, but not limited to, metabolic, immune, and reproductive function, and psychological health. Low energy availability (LEA) is the underlying cause of RED-S. LEA can be defined as …

THE PSYCHOLOGICAL AND PHYSIOLOGICAL EFFECTS OF MAKING WEIGHT IN INTERNATIONAL LEVEL TAEKWONDO ATHLETES
… athletes are unique, given they are required to compete in two differing weight categories for both World (WT) and Olympic (OG) events, which have some of the largest differences amongst other making weight combat sports. Typically, this demographic will lose body mass (BM) via acute and …

The Central Stoneroller, Campostoma Anomalum, as an Indicator of Heavy Metal Contamination Using Otolith Age Determination and Growth Analysis
… from an impacted site would exhibit a reduced growth rate compared to those from an upstream reference site. A lab experiment revealed that alizarin red S will impart a violet-red mark in stoneroller otoliths that can be viewed with a compound light microscope. Using that dye, a second …

Risk of Low Energy Availability in Elite Male Athletes with Spinal Cord Injury
… related to Relative Energy Deficiency in Sport (RED-S), including risk of disordered eating, hormonal profiles, and bone mineral density (BMD) scans, in male wheelchair para athletes. Collegiate- and national-level male athletes (n = 9) with spinal cord injury (SCI) completed 7-day concurrent …

Saccharide recognition : boronic acids as receptors in polymeric networks
… The following key aspects were considered: • Provision of a variety of different characterised arylboronic acids and benzoboroxoles • Attachment of certain derivatives to nanoparticles and the characterisation of saccharide binding by means of isothermal titration calorimetry and …

The Effects of Macronutrient and Energy Availability on Metabolic Responses to Exercise: Implications for Training Adaptation
… syndrome of Relative Energy Deficiency in Sport (RED-S). Study 1 (Chapter 4) examined the effects of reduced CHO but high post-exercise fat availability on the activation of cell signalling kinases and expression of genes with roles in the regulation of mitochondrial biogenesis, lipid metabolism …

In Vitro Assessment of Bone and Cartilage Stimulating Peptides
… mineralization and cell migration. BCSPs appeared to enhance the bone growth in the previous study using an animal model; however, the cellular and molecular mechanisms of BCSPs performance remain unclear. In this study, we examined three BCSPs in vitro with respect to their ability to enhance …

Gout Biosensor: Towards the development of a peptide-based diagnostic for crystal arthropathies and Amplifying Graduate Student Perspectives on Supervision and Satisfaction at the University of Calgary
… Initial phage display efforts were hindered by high background binding of the phage, leading to the unexpected discovery of an interaction between MSU crystals and the major coat protein of the bacteriophage. This finding laid the groundwork for enhancing peptide binding to MSU crystals. …

Upconversion Nanoparticles for pH Sensing and Imaging
… The effect of two anthraquinone dyes, Calcium Red and Alizarin Red S, on UCNPs was measured by spectroscopic techniques at various pHs. When the thick-shell (3 nm), PMA-coated UCNPs and dyes were mixed directly, the green emission band of the UCNPs was quenched by a pH-dependent inner filter …

Rhodoliths as environmental archives in the tropics
… are free-living forms of calcareous, coralline red algae that are found worldwide, from the tropics to the poles, in relatively shallow (0->250m) waters. They can live hundreds of years and continuously form a high-Mg calcite skeleton that presents periodical growth bands. Recent coralline red …

UTILIZING THE LEAF-QUESTIONNAIRE TO DETERMINE THE RISK OF LOW ENERGY AVAILABILITY IN COLLEGE FEMALE WRESTLERS
… in Females Questionnaire (LEAF-Q) was administered. In addition to the LEAF-Q, supplementary questions were asked to help describe characteristics of the sample and to assess factors that may have also contributed to those at risk for LEA. <strong>Results:</strong> Twenty nine percent (n=20) of …

Modification of polymer surfaces to aid the attachment of cells derived from bone.
… system to an implanted biomaterial is predominantly governed by surface state i.e. chemistry, energy, micro- and nano-structure. Hence, controlling surface properties is an integral area of biomaterials research. This thesis examines the use of UV/ozone oxidation treatment to improve the …
