TL;DR: It is concluded that ECC fast training is the most effective for muscle hypertrophy and strength gain.
Abstract: The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of isokinetic eccentric (ECC) and concentric (CON) training at two velocities [fast, 180° s−1 (314 rad s−1) and slow,30° s−1(052 rad s−1)] on muscle hypertrophy Twenty-four untrained volunteers (age 18–36 years) participated in fast- (n=13) or slow- (n=11) velocity training, where they trained one arm eccentrically for 8 weeks followed by CON training of the opposite arm for 8 weeks Ten subjects served as controls (CNT) Subjects were tested before and after training for elbow flexor muscle thickness by sonography and isokinetic strength (Biodex) Overall, ECC training resulted in greater hypertrophy than CON training (P<001) No significant strength or hypertrophy changes occurred in the CNT group ECC (180° s−1) training resulted in greater hypertrophy than CON (180° s−1) training and CON (30° s−1) training (P<001) ECC (30° s−1) training resulted in greater hypertrophy than CON (180° s−1) training (P<005), but not CON (30° s−1) training ECC (180° s−1) training resulted in the greatest increases in strength (P<001) We conclude that ECC fast training is the most effective for muscle hypertrophy and strength gain

TL;DR: The nutritional advantages of LG rapeseed meal, over the older type HG meal, are clearly evident from the feeding trials, and the effects of converting to LG rapeeed meal are presented.
Abstract: The composition of rapeseed meal and hulls is reviewed with emphasis on components of nutritional interest Carbohydrates in rapeseed meal are mainly pectins, pentosans and cellulose and comprise nearly one-half the gross energy The digestibility of energy is lower for rapeseed than for soybean meal Protein is well digested, but the protein digestion coefficient and the availability of amino acids are lower than for soybean meal Data on digestible and metabolizable energy are summarized The kinds of glucosinolates present in high (HG) and low (LG) glucosinolate rapeseed meal and the nature of their hydrolytic products are discussed The toxic effects of oxazolidinethione , isothiocyanates, thiocyanates and nitriles, and their relationship to their parent glucosinolates , to myrosinase action and to conditions during rapeseed processing are reviewed briefly The effects of glucosinolates in animal tissues and products and the effects of converting to LG rapeseed meal are presented Finally, a brief review is given of the responses of swine and cattle to the feeding of HG and LG rapeseed meal The nutritional advantages of LG rapeseed meal, over the older type HG meal, are clearly evident from the feeding trials

TL;DR: Scattering experiments show that in carbon-12 the neutron-proton pairs are nearly 20 times as prevalent as proton- Proton pairs and, by inference, neutron-neutron pairs, which has implications for understanding cold dense nuclear systems such as neutron stars.
Abstract: The protons and neutrons in a nucleus can form strongly correlated nucleon pairs. Scattering experiments, in which a proton is knocked out of the nucleus with high-momentum transfer and high missing momentum, show that in carbon-12 the neutron-proton pairs are nearly 20 times as prevalent as proton-proton pairs and, by inference, neutron-neutron pairs. This difference between the types of pairs is due to the nature of the strong force and has implications for understanding cold dense nuclear systems such as neutron stars.
