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... Read More about Anti-inflammatory effects of Omega 3 fatty acids on murine skeletal muscle cell differentiation.

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% (p<0.05) lower when determined durin...
