    Notes: Abstract It has been suggested that withdrawal from several subclasses of central nervous system (CNS) depressants involves common underlying mechanisms. For example, mice genetically selected for severe ethanol withdrawal convulsions (Withdrawal Seizure Prone or WSP) have also been found to express severe withdrawal following treatment with barbiturates and benzodiazepines. Corticosteroids appear to modulate severity of withdrawal from CNS depressants. Therefore, it was hypothesized that corticosterone would enhance withdrawal convulsions following acute ethanol, pentobarbital, and diazepam in WSP mice. Corticosterone (20 mg/kg) administered following each of these drugs significantly increased severity of handling-induced convulsions during withdrawal. Corticosterone did not affect pre-withdrawal convulsion scores or handling-induced convulsions of drug-naive mice. These results suggest that withdrawal convulsions following acute ethanol, pentobarbital, and diazepam are sensitive to modulation by corticosterone and they support the hypothesis that stress may increase drug withdrawal severity.

    Notes: The use of pulsed laser excitation upon a series of 1-vinylnaphthalene/methyl methacrylate co-polymers in which the intramolecular chromophore concentration is varied over a wide composition range has allowed the individual rate constants governing intramolecular excimer formation to be determined at various temperatures between 205 and 295 K. Triple exponential functions are necessary for adequate description of the photophysical kinetics over the entire temperature range. It is proposed that the kinetic and temperature behavior is consistent with a kinetic scheme involving two kinetically distinct monomeric species and an excimer in which energy may be transferred from the second monomer M*2 to the first monomer M*1 which can interact with the excimer by a conventional migration mechanism.

    Notes: The considerable potential of high resolution time-resolved spectroscopic data for copolymer systems in elucidation of the intramolecular photophysical processes which occur in polymer systems is illustrated. Such information can not be gleaned solely from studies of homopolymers. Kinetic data and time resolved fluorescence spectra of copolymers of 1-vinylnaphthalene and methyl methacrylate indicate that conventional kinetic schemes are inappropriate for the discription of excimer formation in 1-vinylnaphthalene polymers. Evidence is presented for the presence of an emitting species in addition to the expected monomeric and excimeric forms. The nature of this third species is discussed and photophysical kinetic schemes are proposed to describe intramolecular excimer formation in such systems. Kinetic data have been derived for the principle deactivation pathways through investigation of the observed fluorescence decays upon the intrachain concentration of aromatic species.

    Notes: The time-resolved fluorescence behavior of polystyrene and a series of styrene-methyl methacrylate copolymers has been examined by using pulsed laser excitation. Although the photophysical characteristics of styrene- and naphthalene-containing polymers may be described by the same general kinetic scheme, some differences in the nature of the photophysical interactions are apparent. Umambiguous evidence for the occurrence of excimer dissociation into excited-state monomer in polymers incorporating styrene chromophores is presented.
