Brain activity is associated with changes in optical properties of brain tissue. Optical measurements during brain activation can assess haemoglobin oxygenation, cytochrome-c-oxidase redox state, and two types of changes in light... more
The urgent need for toxicological studies on carbon nanotubes (CNTs) has arisen from the rapidly emerging applications of CNTs well beyond material science and engineering. In order to provide a basis for comparison to existing... more
Noninvasive Brain Computer Interfaces (BCI) have been promoted to be used for neuroprosthetics. However, reports on applications with electroencephalography (EEG) show a demand for a better accuracy and stability. Here we investigate... more
In near–infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) of tissue, light attenuation is due to: (i) absorption from chromophores of fixed concentration, (ii) absorption from chromophores of variable concentration, and (iii) light scatter. NIRS is usually... more
Background— Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) in inflamed atherosclerotic plaques may contribute to extracellular matrix remodeling and the onset of acute thrombotic complications. Methods and Results— To test the hypothesis that optical... more
The temporal relationship between the kinetics of phase 2 pulmonary O2 uptake (Vo -->Vo2p) and deoxygenation of the vastus lateralis muscle was examined during moderate-intensity leg-cycling exercise. Young adults (5 men, 6 women; 23... more
