The Influence of Physical Training on the PH of Skeletal Muscle in Pigs

Inuerkan av fysisk träiling på pH i skelettmuskulaturen hos grisar.

Abstract

Treadmill training of pigs was shown to retard the pH-drop of longissimus dorsi biopsy samples. Training similarly had an inhibiting effect on the post-mortem pH, ATP and glycogen, and on fluid loss (expressible juice) of the gracilis muscle.

Sammanfattning

Träning av grisar på ergometer minskade pH-fallet i biopsier från M. longissimus dorsi. Träningen hade vidare en inhiberande verkan på det post-mortala pH, ATP och glykogen samt på utpressbar vätska i M. gracilis.
