Analyzing the impact of the size of fluoro and chloro substituents on induced mesomorphism in hydrogen bonded liquid crystals.

Synthesis of new supramolecules with specific properties and realistic applications requires a sound knowledge of the structure-property relationships of the synthesized molecules. Non-covalent interaction like hydrogen bonding is conducive in realizing mesomorphism. The induction of the liquid crystalline character is associated with the strength of hydrogen bonds formed between the interacting components, which are affected by the change of polarity and polarizability of both components upon change in their terminal polar substituents.

Oblique Retro-Aortic Left Renal Vein and its Clinical Importance.

Kidneys are the organs that remove the waste products of the metabolic activities. A smooth blood flow to the kidneys is essential to maintain their function. Abnormalities of the renal vasculature may result not only in impairing the renal function but can lead to conditions like varicocele.

Novel biphenyl-substituted 1,2,4-oxadiazole ferroelectric liquid crystals: synthesis and characterization.

Two novel series of unsymmetrically substituted 1,2,4-oxadiazole viz., R.Ox.

Atypical fatal entry wound to the thigh--a case report.

Stab wounds encountered in medico-legal practice are caused by sharp or blunt pointed weapons such as a kitchen knife, dagger, screwdriver, iron rod, etc. Atypical entry wounds may result from elasticity of skin, relative movement of the victim or the offending weapon or both. These are often described in the literature.
