Description of the research topic:
Equines are valuable partners of human athletes, contribute to their success, and represent great worth of investment. Timing of physical training and knowing the actual condition are essential for high performance. The monitoring of descriptive parameters of oxidative status is an intensively studied area. Near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy has a potential in the rapid prediction of blood parameters during oxidative stress. Thus, evaluating the physical condition of a horse, predicting some physiological parameters that describe the level of training using a portable NIR device could lead to high quality scientific and commercial achievements. Blood samples of horses with different training background will be tested using laboratory NIR spectrometers. The relationship of the reference physiological parameters, the level of training, and the obtained blood spectra will be evaluated. Then, end-user measurement method applying quick handheld NIR instrument will be developed to evaluate the training induced changes, the oxidative status, and health conditions of horses.
