چکیده
Kaspar Friedrich Wolff is the eponym of four anatomical structures related to the genitourinary system. The Wolffian tubules (aka Kobelt's tubules, named after the nineteenth-century German physician Georg Ludwig Kobelt) are the remnants of the Wolffian duct in the paroophoron, i.e., the broad ligament between the epoophoron and the uterus. The Wolffian body is a name alternatively used for the mesonephros, the transient excretory organ of mammals which is replaced in the adults by the metanephros or kidneys. The Wolffian cysts are the cysts located in the broad ligaments of the uterus, arising from any mesonephric structures. And the most important anatomical term is the Wolffian duct, the embryonic duct draining urine from the mesonephros to the cloaca, the primitive bladder outside the body. The Wolffian duct gives rise to the deferent duct in adult males, and their remnants make up the rudimentary Gartner's duct in females.

متن کاملJoseph Priestley, oxygen, and the enlightenment.
Joseph Priestley (1733–1804) was the first person to report the discovery of oxygen and describe some of its extraordinary properties. As such he merits a special place in the history of respiratory physiology. In addition his descriptions in elegant 18th-century English were particularly arresting, and rereading them never fails to give a special pleasure. The gas was actually first prepared b...
