The theory that the citric acid formation induced by the poison fluoroacetate in vitro (Liebecq & Peters, 1949; Martius, 1949) and in vivo (Buffa & Peters, 1949) is due to the synthesis of a fluorotricarboxylic acid has been proved by the isolation ofa crystalline fluorocitric acid (Peters, Wakelin, Buffa & Thomas, 1953) and by the observation that this substance inhibits the enzyme aconitase i...

This short manuscript summarizes the framework developed by Tozzi and Peters in the years 2015-2017. We claim that the Borsuk-Ulam Theorem (BUT), is not simply a metaphor, rather a real computational tool standing for a universal principle for physical and biological systems. Indeed, the BUT perspective allows a feature (e.g., a shape, a trajectory or an energy) located in the environment to be...
