Book Description
Excerpt from Physical Chemistry of Vital Phenomena: For Students and Investigators in the Biological and Medical Sciences This book comprises a course of lectures and laboratory work given to graduate and advanced medical students in the University of Minnesota. The need for special teaching in the application of the simpler aspects of physical chemistry to biology was first realized by the author while attempting to teach physics and physiology to the same group of college students in 1906. A collection of abstracts of papers on the subject was commenced but interrupted by various affairs, especially the change to medical teaching. It became evident, however, that even medical students with a crowded curriculum would do well to devote any available time to this subject if they expect to do any research or read current medical literature. The purpose of the book is not to go far into physical chemistry but to develop a tool for physiological research. Lengthy discussions of debated questions arc avoided by tentatively accepting the hypothesis which fits the most facts, until a better one appears. For further discussion of any subject the reader is referred to the literature list and index. For facts, however, lie is referred to nature. It is not to be hoped that theories should coincide exactly with data available at present. Even in the most exact branches of chemistry the atomic weight determinations, for instance, do not exactly coincide with the values calculated from the atomic numbers, and there seems to be some doubt as to whether lead is one clement or several. How much more uncertainty there should be about physiology, where determinations are vitiated by the great variability of the material and its physiological states. The literature list was compiled from abstracts made in various libraries during the last ten years in addition to published abstracts and summaries. In some cases only part of a paper or the summary was read. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Surface Tension and Vital Phenomena (Classic Reprint)

Book Description
Excerpt from Surface Tension and Vital Phenomena It must also be admitted that in some signal instances in which the physicist and chemist attempted to aid in the solution of biological problems the result has not been quite satisfactory. Especially has this been the result in the case of membranes. Arrhenius' theory of dissociation and van 't Hofi's gas theory of solutions were supported by such an array of facts from the side of physics and physical chemistry that there appeared to be no question whatever regarding their universal validity, and their application in the study of the phenomena of osmosis was urged with acclaim by physical chemists and eagerly welcomed by physiologists. The theories promised at first to explain all the processes involved in difiusion through membranes, but the final result was not in all cases what was expected. In illustration of this. One instance will suffice. The osmotic concentration of the blood in man as measured by the depression of the freezing point (a) ranges from -o.s6 to The concentration of the urine indicated in the same way is, except under rare conditions. Always greater than this, and its value usually ranges between - l.50° and -s.oo° C that is, from more than two to five times that of the blood plasma. This result is the very opposite of that which should be expected from the application of the theories of Arrhenius and van 't Hoff.
