Eligibility

Age
18 Years to 99 Years

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: Healthy and physically active male subjects (self-reported sport participation minimum 2 times per week during the last 6 months), age from 18 to 30 years. Research subjects have to know from their selves that they sweat extensively upon exercise (self-reported by self-estimation). For homogeneity of the study population, only Caucasian males will be included. Moreover differences in skin colours may influence the NIR signal of the skin.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: Research subjects who use any medication or (psycho)pharmaceuticals. Research subjects who suffer from chronic or metabolic diseases. Research subject who use pace-makers.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Establishment of a (quantitative) relationship between diffuse reflectance NIR spectroscopy measurements on the skin (both positively and negatively correlated wavelengths) with the body fluid balance using a limited set of research subjects. Body weight will be used as reference for the body fluid balance. BIA will be used as a second line control. This pilot study will generate detailed information needed to verify the suitability of protocols and methods in order to develop the final protocol for a subsequent main study.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Not applicable.

Countries

Netherlands
