A study was conducted to ease the fodder cutting operations a commercially available hand chaff cutter (Sokhiya Agricultural Industries, Jaipur, India) during 2019–20 in the Department of Farm Machinery and Power Engineering at College of Agricultural Engineering, Sangareddy, Telangana, India. The assessment was done using with 3 different age group female workers who regularly feed to the animals to assess its suitability for workers of the southern region of India. The parameters used for the Ergonomical evaluation include machine operation at different forces are heart rate, pulse rate, oxygen consumption rate, and energy expenditure rate. The average heart rate for female subjects of P1, P2 and P3 was recorded before the operation is 79, 76 and 81 beats min-1 and after the operation is 109, 108 and 113 beats min-1 for various fodders. The average pulse rate for female subjects of P1, P2, and P3 was recorded before the operation is 62, 68, and 63 beats min-1 and after the operation is 80, 80, and 82 beats min-1 for various fodders. The average oxygen consumption rate and energy expenditure rate of female subjects of P1, P2 and P3 were found to be 0.61, 0.59 and 0.66 liter min-1, and 12.68, 12.36 and 13.74 KJ min-1 respectively after operation of chaff cutter. The physiological parameters are heart rate, pulse rate, oxygen consumption rate, and energy consumption rate increased more rapidly for all age group female workers after operation of chaff cutter with 3 various fodders.

Objective: To analyze the metabolic responses occurring during the practice of exergames in terms of energy expenditure, oxygen consumption rate, metabolic equivalent and heart rate in adult men and women. Methods: The present study sample was comprised of 102 adults (52 males). Energy expenditure, oxygen consumption rate and metabolic equivalent were assessed with a portable gas analyzer (K4b2). Heart rate was measured with a frequencymeter. All dependent variables were assessed at rest and during the exergame session, which was comprised of four X-box 360 games (volleyball, boxing, athletics, and bowling). Results: Mean age was 34.8 ± 13.4 years. There was a significant increase in resting values during exergame sessions for energy expenditure (male: 467.52%; p < 0.001; female: 393.72%; p < 0.001), oxygen consumption rate (male: 453.97%; p < 0.01; female: 384.74%; p < 0.001), metabolic equivalent (male: 457.40%; p < 0.001; female: 384.74%; p < 0.001) and heart rate (male: 95.10%; p < 0.001; female: 92.26; p < 0.001). When compared to women, men showed significantly higher values for energy expenditure (95% confidence interval = -12.53; -6.67), oxygen consumption rate (95% confidence interval = -4.01; -0.80) and metabolic equivalent (95% confidence interval = -1.18; 0.27) during exergames. Conclusion: A session of exergames is capable of increasing energy expenditure, oxygen consumption rate, metabolic equivalent and heart rate in adults. Men showed higher values in metabolic parameters when compared to women.

Microbial efficiency in a meromictic reservoirIndices of microbial efficiency (expressed as oxygen consumption and carbon dioxide release) were determined in the water column of the meromictic Piaseczno Reservoir (in an opencast sulphur mine), which is rich in sulphur compounds. Phytoplankton abundances were low in both the mixolimnion (up to 15 m depth) and monimolimnion (below 15 m depth). In summer and winter, carbon dioxide release was 3-fold and 5-fold higher, respectively, in the monimolimnion than in the mixolimnion. Laboratory enrichments of the sulphur substrate of the water resulted in a decrease in oxygen consumption rate of by about 42% in mixolimnion samples, and in the carbon dioxide release rate by about 69% in monimolimnion samples. Water temperature, pH and bivalent ion contents were of major importance in shaping the microbial metabolic efficiency in the mixolimnion, whilst in the monimolimnion these relationships were not evident.
