This fantastic vitamin was isolated in 1936 by Professor Fritz Kögl of Utrecht, Holland but Biochemist Vincent Du Vigneaud of Cornell and his colleagues identified it as an animal vitamin in 1940. The possible molecular patterns ran into millions. Last January, Dr. Du Vigneaud and colleagues were able to announce that the possible molecular patterns had been reduced to five; then when the position of the nitrogen atoms was ascertained, these were...
...German-speaking listeners Philadelphia's station WTEL brought news this week: U.S. technical research, declared WTEL in impeccable German, is superior to the Reich's, will help win the war. The speaker was Biochemist Dr. Otto Meyerhof, refugee Nobel Prizewinner (1922). He was only one of numerous authorities on a new program now telling Philadelphia's 200,000 German-Americans why the Nazis are not invincible...
Like mad Nebuchadnezzar, who sheeplike browsed Babylon's pastures, U.S. parachute troops and other isolated forces can subsist on leaves, wood and grass. At least, Biochemist Gustav J. Martin of New York thinks so. But, as he told the American Chemical Society in Memphis last week, soldiers' guts first have to be conditioned to this allfours diet, by getting certain harmless bacteria domiciled among the trillions of other bacteria normally present in the human intestine...
Died. Dr. Rudolf Schoenheimer, 43, eminent biochemist; a suicide by poison; in Yonkers, N.Y. With the aid of heavy hydrogen and heavy carbon he pioneered in tracing the uses living bodies make of the constituents of food...
Unimpressed with this explanation was Biochemist Cornelis Bernardus van Niel of Stanford. "Forget about sugar," he told his students. "Consider the other end-product-oxygen. Where does it come from? Discover that and you will be closer to the whole solution." Dr. Ruben at California took this line...
