A comparison between the cardiorespiratory responses of motorized and non-motorized treadmill protocols
(North-West University (South Africa), Potchefstroom Campus, 2017)Maximal aerobic capacity (VO2max) can be considered an important performance determinant of distance runners’ performance due to endurance events being performed at high percentages of one’s VO2max. The protocol and running ... -
The effects of stirring, population levels and a potential anti-nematodal product on the respiration of second-stage juveniles of Meloidogyne incognita measured with different technology
(Brill, 2016)The oxygen consumption rate (OCR) of Meloidogyne incognita second-stage juveniles (J2) was measured using polarographic oxygen sensor (POS) and fibre-optic oxygen sensor (FOS) technology. The effect of stirring speed on ... -
