After 5 days the plates were removed from the cold room and the gram-negative test for Colony A on the EMB agar showed pink fisheye colonies which lead to the conclusion that the gram-negative organism within Unknown #21 was Enterobacter aerogenes. Had the pigmentation been metallic green, the organism would have been identified as Escherichia coli, and had there been no pigmentation at all a Triple Sugar Iron agar (TSI) test among other tests would have been
The most interesting feature was that the holograms projected by the contacts only allowed the user to see them. He discovered many new species of life, and most of his new technology was based on them.
In 1938, German chemists discovered fission (how to split a uranium atom.) This discovery changed the world forever. A man named Leo Szilard knew that this discovery could power an incredibly powerful bomb. He got the idea from a science fiction book he loved that was written in 1914 by H.G. Wells called, “The World Set Free”, which talked about an atomic bomb. Leo Szilard left for America in 1939 to warn the United States that the Germans were in the lead for creating a bomb more powerful than any the world had ever seen.
Seeing as he was a doctor he had access to dead bodies which he would take and make insurances claims off them to make money. He was also thought to have caused the death of a childhood friend when they were young and would often experiment on animals. But with that being said he was also known to be a very bright
With this question in his head, he tried various experiments over the few years, but failed because he “split the atoms wrong.” Even with his failure, he knew it was possible, and he was going to
He was also known for his experimentation
After intensive research and hours in his laboratory also
Perhaps this was the evolutionary moment of what lead him to be so interested in anatomy. He conducted many procedures on animals, mainly apes to see how the body was built and how it worked. He was one of the first to figure out that by clamping the ureters on living apes it made the kidneys swell. By doing that he was able to come to the conclusion that the kidneys produced urine. He would also experiment by surgically cutting or stimulating various nerves of the spin and by doing that he figured out what organs and muscles those nerves
He discovered chagas disease first by finding trypanosomes in a Brazilian monkey. That led to the discovery of the possibly fatal protozoan parasite Trypanosoma Cruzi. This disease is primarily found in the Americas, focused in the rural or Latin Americas where poverty is wide spread. I first realized I had chagas disease after a few weeks of being a host to this parasite. This
He thought that if he heated it up enough, he could kill the microorganism and still preserve the product. He called it the pasteurization process. Many companies today still use his process to make their products safer.
He discovered that you could mix inorganic substances together and make an organic compound. His original discovery was later disbanded because cyanide was actually an organic substance. His discovery was later approved because of another scientist mixing inorganic substances to form organic compounds. At the time, it was common to ask a question similar to this; could you reproduce an organic compound
And after his death in 1931, his laboratory in Newark, New Jersey continued to invent things and make an impact on everyday lives of the common people of today's society. I guess you could say, he set the groundwork for many of
The article that I read had a lot of components and it seems that Pasteur was involved in many different studies and topics throughout his life. Pasteur’s first involvement with infectious diseases, however, were when he was working on an epidemic among silkworms in France. During this work, Pasteur proposed the germ theory which basically stated that various diseases could be contracted through contaminated bacteria, or germs. The motivation behind Pasteur’s discoveries was the many diseases among the community. When working with the silkworms, Pasteur questioned what was making them sick and why it was spreading.
His scientific curiosity shown very early since he and his brother had fixed a chemistry lab in the tool shed in the garden. From this activity came one of his nicknames “Gas”. But his love for experiments was not shared by everybody. When a teacher of Charles found out about this chemistry lab he said that it was useless and a waste of time.
Friedrich Wöhler accidentally synthesized urea in 1828. He was attempting to synthesize ammonium cyanate by treating silver cyanate with aqueous ammonium chloride. After analyzing the white powder that was created, he realized that it was urea, a component of urine. Prior to this discovery, it was commonly believed that you could not create an organic compound from inorganic elements. Wöhler’s accidental discovery proved you could.
