โฆ Synopsis
The spectroscopic aggregation number (coherence length) and physical size of the J-aggregates of anionic mesotetrakis(4-sulphonatophenyl)porphyrin (H 4 TPPS 2ร ) are controlled by ammonium ion concentration. The contributions of absorption and scattering are determined using the extinction and resonance light scattering (RLS) spectra of the TPPS J-aggregate. The highest spectroscopic aggregation number (12.9) was determined for the J-aggregate of hydrodynamic radius of 56 AE 10 nm.

It is demonstrated from vapour-pressure osmometric data on solutions of phosphatidylcholine in benzene in the concentration range 0.015-0.08 mole/1 that under these conditions PC forms aggregates of about 15 molecules. From dielectric measurements it follows that in these aggregates the dipoles of t
