Othmar Zeidler
Othmar Zeidler (29 August 1850 – 17 June 1911)Though many sources mention 1859 as Zeidler's year of birth, this would make him a mere 14 years old at the time of his dissertation in 1873. The 1859 birth yeawas usedby Joseph S. Fruton, in his ''Contrasts in scientific style: research groups in the chemical and biochemical sciences'', Memoirs of the American Philosophical Society, Vol 191, 1990, p. 373, as well as by Gerhard Oberkofler in ''Leopold Ruzicka, 1887–1976: schweizer Chemiker und Humanist aus Altösterreich'', p. 44. The latter even has him quit his pharmacy studies at the Vienna University in 1872 (at the apparent age of 12/13) to move to Strassburg. However, ''Materialien zur Geschichte der Apotheken und Apotheker Niederösterreichs'' gives his year of birth as 1850; furthermore, his obituary at ''Oesterreichische Chemiker–Zeitung'' in 1911 states that Zeidler was 61 years at the time of his death, placing his birth around 1850 (in reality, Zeidler died 2 months sh ...

Chemist
A chemist (from Greek ''chēm(ía)'' alchemy; replacing ''chymist'' from Medieval Latin ''alchemist'') is a scientist trained in the study of chemistry. Chemists study the composition of matter and its properties. Chemists carefully describe the properties they study in terms of quantities, with detail on the level of molecules and their component atoms. Chemists carefully measure substance proportions, chemical reaction rates, and other chemical properties. In Commonwealth English, pharmacists are often called chemists. Chemists use their knowledge to learn the composition and properties of unfamiliar substances, as well as to reproduce and synthesize large quantities of useful naturally occurring substances and create new artificial substances and useful processes. Chemists may specialize in any number of subdisciplines of chemistry. Materials scientists and metallurgists share much of the same education and skills with chemists. The work of chemists is often related to t ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
