Plasma Malondialdehyde Increases Transiently after Ischemic Forearm Exercise

Exercise and ischemia-reperfusion (I-R) have previously been shown to induce oxidative stress in skeletal muscle. Previous studies have demonstrated conflicting results when exercise-induced oxidative stress has been measured using plasma carbonyls, specifically malondialdehyde (MDA). These conflicting results likely stem from the timing and method utilized to measure plasma carbonyls. PURPOSE: To determine the concentration and timing of …
