The role of molecular recognition in charge transport properties of doped polyaniline.

Molecular recognition plays a significant role in the counterion-induced processibility, morphological features, and physical properties of doped polyaniline (PANI). The interaction of the counterion and solvent controls the chain conformation and, as a result, the formation of extended and localized electronic states; hence, it holds the key for tuning a wide range of electrical and optical properties of doped PANI. The combined effects of counterion, solvent, and processing conditions tune the metal-insulator transition, temperature dependence of conductivity, magnetoresistance, and so forth in doped PANI. The typical examples are shown in the case of PANI doped by camphor sulfonic acid, 2-acrylamido-2-methyl-1-propane sulfonic acid, and dodecylbenzoyl sulfonic acid.

Effect of dietary supplementation of vitamin E in partial inhibition of Russell's viper venom phospholipase A2 induced hepatocellular and microsomal membrane damage in rats.

The current investigation furnishes a good correlation between the alpha-tocopherol content of the liver and microsomes and corresponding inhibition of Russell's viper venom phospholipase A2 inflicted damage to them. Dietary supplementation of d1-alpha-tocopherol at a concentration of 100 mg and 200 mg per kg of diet displayed less damage caused by venom phospholipase A2 in sharp contrast to the vitamin E deficient rats. alpha-tocopherol due presumably to the formation of complexes with the phospholipid hydrolysis products of the membranes, plays a significant role in membrane stabilization.

Involvement of the eye and orbit in neurofibromatosis type 1.

11 individuals were diagnosed to have neurofibromatosis type 1 and were examined for evidence of any ophthalmic lesions. Lisch nodules were the commonest manifestation of the disease and were present in 73% of all the patients (88% of those aged 16 years or more). 55% of the cases showed presence of neurofibroma on the lids. Other findings were optic glioma, unilateral sphenoid dysplasia with enlarged orbit, medullated nerve fibers and prominent corneal nerves with an incidence of 9% each.
