Biographical Memoir COPYRIGHT 1975 NATIONAL ACADEMY OF SCIENCES WASHINGTON D.C. EDWARD C. KENDALL March 8, 1886-May 4, 1972 BY DWIGHT J. INGLE DWARD CALVIN KENDALL isolated thyroxine from the thyroid E gland; he and associates crystallized glutathione and estab- lished its chemical structure; and he and associates isolated a series of steroid compounds from the adrenal cortex and con- tributed importantly to the determination of the structure and synthesis of several of them. With Philip S. Hench, he con- ceived the idea that cortisone might be useful in treating rheumatoid arthritis, and they planned clinical studies that confirmed the hypothesis. Kendall also initiated and partici- pated in a number of related studies. During his professional life he was called "Nick" by close friends and by his wife. He was referred to as "The Chief" by some of his laboratory associates, but commonly he was ad- dressed with deference, as "Doctor Kendall." Edward C. Kendall, the third child of George S. and Eva F. Kendall, was born March 8, 1886, at South Norwalk, Connecti- cut. The home was a citadel for religious teachings. The father, a dentist by profession, took an active interest in com- munity affairs. Edward attended the Franklin Elementary School and, for two years, South Norwalk High School.

  • Die Anfänge Der Physiologischen Chemie: Ernst Felix Immanuel Hoppe-Seyler (1825-1895)
    Die Anfänge der physiologischen Chemie: Ernst Felix Immanuel Hoppe-Seyler (1825-1895) vorgelegt von Diplom-Biochemikerin Anja Vöckel aus Wiesbaden Von der Fakultät I - Geisteswissenschaften - der Technischen Universität Berlin zur Erlangung des akademischen Grades Doktorin der Philosophie -Dr. phil.- genehmigte Dissertation Promotionsausschuß: Vorsitzender: Prof. Dr. Klaus Meister Berichter: Prof. Dr. Hans-Werner Schütt Berichter: Dr. Sven Dierig (MPIWG) Tag der wissenschaftlichen Aussprache: 8.05.2003 Berlin 2003 D 83 Vorwort Die vorliegende Arbeit entstand am Institut für Philosophie, Wissenschaftstheorie, Wissenschafts- und Technikgeschichte der Technischen Universität Berlin. Sie stellt einen Beitrag zur Biochemiegeschichte des 19. Jahrhunderts dar, ein Arbeitsgebiet, das mich als Biochemikerin besonders interessierte. Die Zielsetzung der Arbeit bestand darin, den wissenschaftlichen Werdegang des physiologischen Chemikers Felix Hop- pe-Seyler darzustellen und in diesem Zusammenhang die inner- und außerwissen- schaftlichen Faktoren der Disziplinengenese der physiologischen Chemie im 19. Jahr- hundert zu untersuchen. Der vorgegebene inhaltliche Rahmen der Studie machte nach einer kritischen Sichtung des zugänglichen Quellenmaterials zunächst eine sinnvolle Beschränkung desselben notwendig. In den Mittelpunkt der vorliegenden Arbeit wurden daher die wissen- schaftshistorisch noch unerschlossenen Briefe Hoppe-Seylers an seinen Lehrer Rudolf Virchow, an Emil Du Bois-Reymond, Wilhelm Ostwald, Heinrich Caro, Emil Erlen- meyer und den Verleger Karl Trübner, Schreiben Eduard Pflügers an Emil Du Bois- Reymond und Willy Kühnes an Rudolf Virchow sowie weitere handschriftliche Quel- len zum institutionengeschichtlichen Hintergrund aus dem Archiv der Berlin- Brandenburgischen Akademie der Wissenschaften, den Straßburger Archives départe- mentales du Bas-Rhin, dem Geheimen Staatsarchiv Preußischer Kulturbesitz Berlin, der Staatsbibliothek zu Berlin, dem Deutschen Museum München und dem Universi- tätsarchiv der Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin gestellt.

    SYNTHESIS AND CHARACTERIZATION OF NOVEL BIOLOGICALLY ACTIVE BORON-CONTAINING ANALOGUES OF CAPSAICIN By Maxim F. Landry A thesis submitted to the Department of Chemistry & Biochemistry Mount Allison University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Bachelor of Science degree with Honours in Chemistry Thesis Committee Supervisor Dr. Stephen Westcott Professor of Chemistry Reviewer Dr. Glen Briand Professor of Chemistry ii ACknowledgements Firstly, I would like to thank my parents for their unconditional love and support. I could never have had success that I did throughout this project without the lessons on hard work and perseverance you taught me growing up. To Chris Vogels, the Toads lab runs as smoothly as it does because of you. Because of the work you put in every day, us students can focus on doing research and having fun. Thank you for your lab guidance, Friday afternoon challenges, and our chats about sports. To Jen Melanson and Steve Geier, you’ve both set excellent examples on what it looks like to work effectively and efficiently in the lab. Thank you also to Danny Durant for your expert technical assistance and for eating lunch with me in the lounge most days, and to Dr. Glen Briand, my second reader. I also want to extend thanks to the great friends I’ve made as a Wild Toad. To Shortbread, G-Dawg, MKV, DR., Actor, Wigboys #1 and #2, JJ, and Skinny Boy, it has been a pleasure working with you all. A special thanks goes out to Cletus Gump for keeping the lab safe. To Steve Westcott, I can’t thank you enough for everything you’ve done for me.

All rights reserved. http://tarek.kakhia.org 1 - Introduction To Organic Acid Contents 1 Introduction 2 Characteristics 3 Applications 4 Application in food 5 Application in nutrition and animal feeds 1 - Introduction An organic acid is an organic compound with acidic properties. The most common organic acids are the carboxylic acids, whose acidity is associated with their carboxyl group – COOH. Sulfonic acids, containing the group – SO2OH, are relatively stronger acids. Alcohols, with – OH, can act as acids but they are usually very weak. The relative stability of the conjugate base of the acid determines its acidity. Other groups can also confer acidity, usually weakly: the thiol group –SH, the enol group, and the phenol group. In biological systems, organic compounds containing these groups are generally referred to as organic acids. 2 - Characteristics In general, organic acids are weak acids and do not dissociate completely in water, where as the strong mineral acids do. Lower molecular mass organic acids such as formic and lactic acids are miscible in water, but higher molecular mass organic acids, such as benzoic acid, are insoluble in molecular (neutral) form. On the other hand, most organic acids are very soluble in organic solvents. p-Toluene sulfonic acid is a comparatively strong acid used in organic chemistry often because it is able to dissolve in the organic reaction solvent. Exceptions to these solubility characteristics exist in the presence of other substituents that affect the polarity of the compound.
