Development of Advanced Methods Based on Stable Isotope Technology for Studies of Exercise in Heat

Abstract

Stable isotope methods were developed for precise and accurate measurement of isotopes of bromine, magnesium, and potassium in tissues. The methods were applied to the measurement of extracellular fluid volume using the swine model, and to exchangeable pool sizes of magnesium and potassium using the rat model. It was shown that the bromine method could magnesium and potassium using the rat model. It was shown that the bromine method could be used to investigate changes in exchangeable body magnesium in the rat made magnesium deficient potassium are being explored further. Keywords: Heat stress physiology.
