A study was conducted to investigate the electrochemical and optical properties of thin films of oligoalkylthiophene (13T) consisting of 13 thienylene units to clarify the solid-state natures of the pi-conjugated oligomer. The results suggested that a pristine 13T films is a mixture of two phases to be oxidized at separate potentials and that one phase could be switched to other by potential stimulation.

The study investigated the influence of mircostructure of conducting polymers on their transport properties by use of in-situ techniques. It concluded that mobilities of polarons are mainly controlled by the rate of an interchain charge hopping and that the evolution of metallic conduction featured by the sharp mobility increase is irrelevant to the interchain stacking, or rather governed by an intrachain route.

A research of the cardiovascular responses to exercise in four groups of people with different states of physical fitness reveals the problem of lack of time to apply basic physiological concepts. The homodynamic responses to exercise in sedentary individuals, athletes, individuals with quadraplegia and persons with transplanted hearts reveal the necessity to employ the principles of cardiovascular physiology. These groups of people have physiological limitations and adaptations, that reflect on cardiovascular function.

An intact conscious rat has an alpha-adrenergic vasoconstriction, controlled by a receptor, which decreases by a single round of dynamic exercise. Post-exercise period reveals a fall in maximal reaction to phenylephrine, PE. The control condition reveals an increase in PE due to N-omega-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester hydrochloride (L-NAME) which hinders nitric oxide, NO. After exercise, the reaction increases by different levels. Fall in the reaction to PE is partially caused by increased secretion of NO. Occurrence of L-NAME in control and post-exercise conditions reveal a variation in maximal response to PE.
