Liver Glycogenolysis

The purposes of this study were to determine the effect of different work rates on the rate of liver glycogenolysis and to determine the relationship between liver adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (cAMP) levels and the glycogenolytic rate. Rats were run at treadmill speeds ranging from 10 to 34 m/min up a 15% grade for either 30 or 60 min. Both the magnitude of the decrease in liver glycogen and the increase in hepatic cAMP were dependent on the running speed and the duration of running. At the highest work rate a disproportionate acceleration in the liver glycogenolytic rate was observed compared with that at lower work loads, thus resulting in a curvilinear relationship between work rate and liver glycogenolytic rate. A high degree of correlation was found between the liver glycogenolytic rate and hepatic cAMP concentration (r = 0.98). This observation is consistent with the idea that hepatic glycogenolytic rates are determined by cAMP-mediated mechanisms.

(1) Background: Compared with marathon races, pacing in time-limited ultramarathons has only been poorly discussed in the literature. The aim of the present study was to analyze the interaction of performance level, age and sex with pacing during 6 h, 12 h or 24 h time-limited ultramarathons. (2) Methods: Participants (n = 937, age 48.62 ± 11.80 years) were the finishers in 6 h (n = 40, 17 women and 23 men), 12 h (n = 232, 77 women and 155 men) and 24 h (n = 665, 166 women and 409 men) ultramarathons. The coefficient of variation (CV), calculated as SD/mean, was used to described pacing. Low scores of CV denoted a more even pacing, and vice versa. A two-way analysis of variance examined the main effects and interactions of sex and race duration on age, race speed and pacing. (3) Results: More men participated in the longer race distances than in the shorter ones and men were older and faster than women. Comparing the 6 h, 12 h and 24 h races, the finishers in the 6 h were the fastest, the finishers in the 12 h were the oldest and the finishers in the 24 h showed the most variable pacing. Furthermore, the faster running speed in the 12 h (women, r = −0.64; men, r = −0.49, p < 0.001) and the 24 h (r = −0.47 in women and men, p < 0.001) was related to less variable pacing. (4) Conclusions: These data might help runners and coaches to choose the the proper duration of a race and training programs for their athletes.

Hydrophobic Silica

A colloidal damper (CD) can dissipate a significant amount of vibrations and impact energy owing to the interface power that is generated when it is used. It is of great practical significance to study the influence of the nanochannel structure of hydrophobic silica gel in the CD damping medium on the running speed of the CD. The fractal theory was applied to observe the characteristics of the micropore structure of the hydrophobic silica gel by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), the primary particles were selected to carry out fractal analysis, and the two-dimensional fractal dimension of the pore area and the tortuous fractal dimension of the hydrophobic silica gel pore structure were calculated. The fractal percolation model of water in hydrophobic silica nanochannels based on the slip theory could thus be obtained. This model revealed the relationship between the micropore structure parameters of the silica gel and the running speed of the CD. The CD running speed increases with the addition of grafted molecules and the reduction in pore size of the silica gel particles. Continuous loading velocity testing of the CD loaded with hydrophobic silica gels with different pore structures was conducted. By comparing the experimental results with the calculation results of the fractal percolation model, it was determined that the fractal percolation model can better characterize the change trend of the CD running velocity for the first loading, but the fractal dimension was changed from the second loading, caused by the small amount of water retained in the nanochannel, leading to the failure of fractal characterization.

Post-treated mordenite membranes were prepared using sucrose (C12H22O11) as a carbon precursor to block any pinholes and defects in the zeolite layer. The pervaporation (PV) process was used to separate ethanol from the water. The effects of the sucrose concentration and the pyrolysis temperature (650–850 °C) were investigated, and the resulting high separation performance compared to those post/pre-treated membranes was reported in the literature. In this study, mordenite carbon membranes yielded a water/ethanol separation factor of 990.37 at a water flux of 9.10 g/m2h. The influence of the operating temperature on the performance of the membrane also was considered. It was concluded that the selective adsorption of water through zeolite pores was achieved. The entire preparation procedure was achieved using a rapid, low-cost preparation process.
