The Effect of Water Temperature on Immunoglobulin response during SCUBA diving

ABSTRACT

The Effect of Water Temperature on Immunoglobulin response during SCUBA diving. Exercise Science, 13(2): 241-250, 2004. The purpose of this present study was to investigate the effect of water temperature on immunoglobulin response during SCUBA diving. Eight male SCUBA divers were used as subjects. All subjects completed acute treadmill running until exhaustion. After exhaustive treadmill exercise, HR-60% O2max was found out. SCUBA diving was performed HR-60% O2max speed in each water temperature(7℃ and 25℃). Then Blood samples were assayed in all three times(Before SCUBA diving, After SCUBA diving, After 60 minutes resting). After finishing the analysis of Immunoglobulin concentration, statistical analysis is carried out by Paired Sample T-test and One-Way ANOVA.The results can be sumarized as follows;IgG was not meaningfully changed in both groups before SCUBA diving, whereas it was significantly changed in both groups after SCUBA diving(p<.05) and until 60 minutes resting after SCUBA diving(p<.01). IgM was not meaningfully changed in both groups before SCUBA diving, and it was not significantly changed in both groups until 60 minute resting after SCUBA diving. However, it was significantly changed in both groups after SCUBA diving(p<.05). IgA was not meaningfully changed in both groups before SCUBA diving, whereas it was significantly changed in both groups after SCUBA diving and until 60 minutes resting after SCUBA diving(p<.05). SCUBA diving meaningfully increased Immunoglobulin(IgG, IgA) in 7℃ water temperature (p<.05). SCUBA diving did not significantly increase Immunog- lobulin(IgG, IgM, IgA) in 25℃ water temperature.It would be concluded that SCUBA diving significantly increased Immunoglobulin(IgG, IgA) in 7℃ water temperature, but it did not significantly change Immunoglobulin(IgG, IgM, IgA) in 25℃ water temperature.

Key words: SCUBA diving, Water temperature, Immunoglobulin, IgG, IgM, IgA
