Alfred Einhorn
Alfred Einhorn (27 February 1856 – 21 March 1917) was a German chemist most notable for first synthesizing procaine in 1905 which he patented under the name Novocain. Until that time the primary anesthetic in use was cocaine, however its undesirable side effects (including toxicity and addiction) led scientists to seek out newer anesthetic drugs. Novocain was found to be comparatively safe and effective, although its anesthetic effects were weaker than cocaine and some patients proved highly allergic.

Although its use has largely been replaced by lidocaine, it is still in use today, most frequently in dentistry.

He studied chemistry at the University of Leipzig and later at the University of Tübingen where ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
