Thermochemistry of Organic Fluorine Compounds and Carbon Compounds

Rotating-bomb calorimetry was first applied to organic compounds that contain chlorine, bromine, or sulphur. Techniques developed for these classes of compounds, mostly at the University of Lund and at the Bureau of Mines in Bartlesville, have been described in the book Experimental Thermochemistry-, The development of rotating-bomb methods made accurate combustion calorimetry feasible for othe...

Herbert W. Conn: Formative decades of microbiology and evolutionary biology

The Wesleyan Biology Department conference room showcases several portraits of distinguished biologists from its history, including one depicting Herbert W. Conn (1859–1917) as a dashing young man sporting a double-breasted suit, pince-nez, and a perfect Van Dyke beard. Conn made outstanding contributions to both microbiology and evolutionary biology, showing how bacteria share fundamental prop...

[Health effects of fluorine and its compounds].

Fluoride, the ionic form of fluorine, is a natural component of the biosphere and 13th most abundant element in the crust of the earth. It is, therefore, found in a wide range of concentrations in virtually all inanimate and living things. Many trace elements perform a definite function in human metabolism and the question of the value of fluoride, always found in the body, has been raised. Muc...
