  • Barbara Mcclintock
    Barbara McClintock Lee B. Kass and Paul Chomet Abstract Barbara McClintock, pioneering plant geneticist and winner of the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1983, is best known for her discovery of transposable genetic elements in corn. This chapter provides an overview of many of her key findings, some of which have been outlined and described elsewhere. We also provide a new look at McClintock’s early contributions, based on our readings of her primary publications and documents found in archives. We expect the reader will gain insight and appreciation for Barbara McClintock’s unique perspective, elegant experiments and unprecedented scientific achievements. 1 Introduction This chapter is focused on the scientific contributions of Barbara McClintock, pioneering plant geneticist and winner of the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1983 for her discovery of transposable genetic elements in corn. Her enlightening experiments and discoveries have been outlined and described in a number of papers and books, so it is not the aim of this report to detail each step in her scientific career and personal life but rather highlight many of her key findings, then refer the reader to the original reports and more detailed reviews. We hope the reader will gain insight and appreciation for Barbara McClintock’s unique perspective, elegant experiments and unprecedented scientific achievements. Barbara McClintock (1902–1992) was born in Hartford Connecticut and raised in Brooklyn, New York (Keller 1983). She received her undergraduate and graduate education at the New York State College of Agriculture at Cornell University. In 1923, McClintock was awarded the B.S.

  • Vernieuwend Wassen R&D in Vlaardingen En De Detergents-Business Van Unilever
    Vernieuwend wassen: Vernieuwend Vernieuwend wassen Vernieuwend wassen R&D in Vlaardingen en de detergents-business van Unilever R&D in Vlaardingen en de detergents-business Met de vorming van Unilever in 1930 ontstond één van de grootste zeep- en margarine- R&D in Vlaardingen en de producenten ter wereld. Zeep en margarine vormen overigens een logische combinatie, van Unilever beide bedrijfstakken werkten immers met dezelfde grondstoffen: oliën en vetten. In dit cahier staat de Research & Development van Unilever op het terrein van wasmiddelen Ton van Helvoort, Mila Davids en Harry Lintsen centraal. Waar het bij de R&D van voedingsmiddelen vaak om stapsgewijze zogeheten onzichtbare innovaties gaat, wordt de markt van wasmiddelen juist gekenmerkt door een reeks van radicale innovaties. De meest cruciale nieuwigheid was het op de markt komen van de synthetische wasmiddelen. Niet langer vormden plantaardige of dierlijke grondstoffen de basis, de bouwstenen werden voortaan geleverd door de aardolie- industrie. detergents Om de positie op de markt te kunnen vasthouden stond aan wasmiddelen gerelateerd onderzoek bij de Unilever laboratoria in Port Sunlight (Engeland) en Vlaardingen hoog -business van Unilever op de agenda. Innovaties vonden zowel plaats in de processing als in het verbeteren van de wasmiddelen. De auteurs laten zien hoe de onderzoekers van Unilever zich richtten op onderwerpen zoals de werking van oppervlakactieve stoffen, de toepassing van enzymen, fosfaatverontreiniging, het bleken bij lage temperatuur en de bijbehorende vermindering van het energieverbruik alsmede de bereiding van compacte poeders. De analyse van de R&D-inspanningen maakt duidelijk hoe allerlei ontwikkelingen met elkaar samenhangen; elke ‘innovatieve’ aanpassing kan gevolgen hebben elders in het netwerk.
