Saw a sign at a store that said, "We treat you like family."
I'm not going in there.
Gerardus Johannes MulderDied 18 Apr 1880 at age 77 (born 27 Dec 1802).Dutch chemist remembered for his analysis of proteins, for which he coined the name (perhaps suggested to him by Berzelius), in French, protéine (1838) based on the stem “proto” from Greek, as a primary or fundamental substance forming the bodies of animals and plants. Further, he isolated fibrin, the protein associated with clotting blood. He also worked in soil chemistry, was the first to analyze phytol correctly during research on chlorophyll, and confirmed Bezelius' suspicion that theine and caffein were the same compound. He published technical works on the chemistry of indigo (1833), wine (1855) and beer (1857).« |
