Methods Twelve able-bodied triathletes performed a 30-min CLT at a power output corresponding to lactate threshold in a racing recumbent handcycle mounted on a stationary ergometer. During the CLT, ratings of perceived exertion (RPE), tangential crank kinetics, 3D joint kinematics, and muscular activity of ten muscles of the upper extremity and trunk were examined using motion capturing and surface electromyography. Results During the CLT, spontaneously chosen cadence and RPE increased, whereas crank torque decreased. Rotational work was higher during the pull phase. Peripheral RPE was higher compared to central RPE. Joint range of motion decreased for elbow-flexion and radial-duction. Integrated EMG (iEMG) increased in the forearm flexors, forearm extensors, and M. deltoideus (Pars spinalis). An earlier onset of activation was found for M. deltoideus (Pars clavicularis), M. pectoralis major, M. rectus abdominis, M. biceps brachii, and the forearm flexors. Conclusion Fatigue-related alterations seem to apply analogously in handcycling and cycling. The most distal muscles are responsible for force transmission on the cranks and might thus suffer most from neuromuscular fatigue. The findings indicate that peripheral fatigue (at similar lactate values) is higher in handcycling compared to leg cycling, at least for inexperienced participants. An increase in cadence might delay peripheral fatigue by a reduced vascular occlusion. We assume that the gap between peripheral and central fatigue can be reduced by sport-specific endurance training.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{PohleFroehlichDalitzRichteretal.2020, author = {Pohle-Fr{\"o}hlich, Regina and Dalitz, Christoph and Richter, Charlotte and Hahnen, Tobias and St{\"a}udle, Benjamin and Albracht, Kirsten}, title = {Estimation of muscle fascicle orientation in ultrasonic images}, series = {Proceedings of the 15th International Joint Conference on Computer Vision, Imaging and Computer Graphics Theory and Applications - Volume 5}, booktitle = {Proceedings of the 15th International Joint Conference on Computer Vision, Imaging and Computer Graphics Theory and Applications - Volume 5}, publisher = {SciTePress}, address = {Set{\´u}bal, Portugal}, isbn = {978-989-758-402-2}, doi = {10.5220/0008933900790086}, pages = {79 -- 86}, year = {2020}, abstract = {We compare four different algorithms for automatically estimating the muscle fascicle angle from ultrasonic images: the vesselness filter, the Radon transform, the projection profile method and the gray level cooccurence matrix (GLCM). The algorithm results are compared to ground truth data generated by three different experts on 425 image frames from two videos recorded during different types of motion. The best agreement with the ground truth data was achieved by a combination of pre-processing with a vesselness filter and measuring the angle with the projection profile method. The robustness of the estimation is increased by applying the algorithms to subregions with high gradients and performing a LOESS fit through these estimates.}, language = {en} } @article{DantismRoehlenDahmenetal.2020, author = {Dantism, Shahriar and R{\"o}hlen, Desiree and Dahmen, Markus and Wagner, Torsten and Wagner, Patrick and Sch{\"o}ning, Michael Josef}, title = {LAPS-based monitoring of metabolic responses of bacterial cultures in a paper fermentation broth}, series = {Sensors and Actuators B: Chemical}, volume = {320}, journal = {Sensors and Actuators B: Chemical}, number = {Art. 128232}, publisher = {Elsevier}, address = {Amsterdam}, issn = {0925-4005}, doi = {10.1016/j.snb.2020.128232}, year = {2020}, abstract = {As an alternative renewable energy source, methane production in biogas plants is gaining more and more attention. Biomass in a bioreactor contains different types of microorganisms, which should be considered in terms of process-stability control. Metabolically inactive microorganisms within the fermentation process can lead to undesirable, time-consuming and cost-intensive interventions. Hence, monitoring of the cellular metabolism of bacterial populations in a fermentation broth is crucial to improve the biogas production, operation efficiency, and sustainability. In this work, the extracellular acidification of bacteria in a paper-fermentation broth is monitored after glucose uptake, utilizing a differential light-addressable potentiometric sensor (LAPS) system. The LAPS system is loaded with three different model microorganisms (Escherichia coli, Corynebacterium glutamicum, and Lactobacillus brevis) and the effect of the fermentation broth at different process stages on the metabolism of these bacteria is studied. In this way, different signal patterns related to the metabolic response of microorganisms can be identified. By means of calibration curves after glucose uptake, the overall extracellular acidification of bacterial populations within the fermentation process can be evaluated.}, language = {en} } @article{RoethSlabuKessleretal.2019, author = {Roeth, A.A. and Slabu, I. and Kessler, A. and Engelmann, Ulrich M.}, title = {Local treatment of pancreatic cancer with magnetic nanoparticles}, series = {HPB}, volume = {21}, journal = {HPB}, number = {Supplement 3}, publisher = {Elsevier}, address = {Amsterdam}, issn = {1365-182X}, doi = {10.1016/j.hpb.2019.10.959}, pages = {S868 -- S869}, year = {2019}, language = {en} }
