title: Effect of lignocaine on blood lipid in relation to partition coefficient and biological activity.
abstract: To correlate lipophilicity of lignocaine with changes in lipid composition of blood as a result of in vitro incubation with the drug, phosphorus content and fatty acid compositions of blood lipids before and after lignocaine treatment have been compared with those of a standard phospholipid, lecithin, under similar conditions of drug treatment. The change in fatty acid constituents has been correlated with the biological activity (both therapeutic and toxic) of lignocaine.
