Abstract:
The concentrations of serotonin in various brain areas were significantly decreased in
the pyridoxine-deficient young rat.
2. There was no change in the concentration of dopamine.
3. Both Bmax and Kid of [3H]serotonin binding to membrane preparations from cerebral cortex
were increased in deficiency and were restored to normal upon pyridoxine supplementation.
4. There was no change in [3H]spiroperidol binding to corpus striatal membrane preparations
in pyridoxine-deficient rats.

Abstract:
Solubilities of 4-nitrobenzoic acid at 25°, 35° and 42°C have
been determined in water and in the presence of several concentrations
of electrolytes. The free energies, enthalpies and entropies
of transfer are also reported. The data have been rationalized
by considering the structure-breaking effects of the ions of
the salts and the requirement of the localized hydrolysis model.
The theory of Symons is not satisfactory to rationalise the
experimental data.

Abstract:
Results of axiswise measurements of the electrical conductivity (dc and ac) and dielectric constant of NH4H2PO4 confirm the occurrence of the recently suggested high‐temperature phase transition in this crystal (at 133 °C). The corresponding transition in ND4D2PO4 observed here for the first time takes place at 141.5 °C. The mechanism involved in these transitions and those associated with the electrical conduction and dielectric anomalies are explained on the basis of the motional effects of the ammonium ions in these crystals. Conductivity values for deuterated crystals give direct evidence for the predominance of protonic conduction throughout the entire range of temperatures studied (30–260 °C).

Abstract:
ZnS: Cu: Cl phosphor prepared under a vacuum firing process is found to
give blue electroluminescence with emission peak at 460 nm which remams
unaltered with the frequency of the excitation voltage. Addition of excess
chlorine in the phosphor gives blue, green and red emission at 460, 520
and 640 run. The intensity of the blue band decreases and It fmally
disappears as chlorine concentration is increased. A scheme involving
three energy levels attributed to Cu2+, Cu+ and Cl- centres in Zns
explains the experimental results completely.
