Anti-inflammatory effects of Omega 3 fatty acids on murine skeletal muscle cell differentiation (2011)
Thesis
Magee, P. Anti-inflammatory effects of Omega 3 fatty acids on murine skeletal muscle cell differentiation. (Thesis). Salford : University of Salford

Eicosapentaenoic acid (ERA) is an w-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) with anti-inflammatory and anti-cachetic properties. These properties have not previously been investigated simultaneously with regards to skeletal muscle damage and regenera...

In vivo tendon mechanical and structural properties : adaptability and influencing factors (2009)
Thesis
Burgess, K. In vivo tendon mechanical and structural properties : adaptability and influencing factors. (Thesis). University of Salford

The central aim of this thesis was to expand on the current knowledge of factors which influence human tendon properties. It is shown here that tendon elongation is 72% greater and calculated tendon stiffness 43% (p0.05).

Automated speckle tracking in ultrasound images of tendon movements
Thesis
Mohamed, A. (in press). Automated speckle tracking in ultrasound images of tendon movements. (Thesis). University of Salford

The central aim of this thesis was to develop new tracking software employing various image tracking algorithms for tracking the speckled movement of the tendon image captured using dynamic B-mode ultrasound imaging. The algorithms were selected base... Read More about Automated speckle tracking in ultrasound images of tendon movements.
