...Primary protein reactions," declared Dr. Svedberg, "are . . . elementary acts which must, of necessity, obey the laws of quantum mechanics." The implications of this statement are vastly more important to science than the actual splitting of blood pigment molecules. If the quantization of biological processes can be continued far enough, it will be possible to explain in exact mathematical terms-in terms of atomic energy levels and electronspins-what happens when insulin is secreted in the pancreas, when starch is broken down in the digestive system, when an ovum is penetrated and fertilized by a spermatozoon, many & many a complex biological...

...that Giauque does not regard the pursuit of absolute zero as a competitive stunt, but as a means of studying entropy, and for this purpose the region within a degree of the zero is cold enough. Such study is a great chemical timesaver. For all chemical reactions must obey the laws of thermodynamics. In the absolute zero region information is obtained which shows in advance whether or not certain chemical reactions are thermodynamically possible. If they are not possible, there is no use looking for a catalyst (chemical activator) and otherwise wasting time trying to make impossible combinations...
