In contradiction, Milas (14) reports chains of reacting molecules was crystallized in 1924 by inhibition of oxidation of anethole by benzoqninone and Christiansen ( 3 ) . He stated that in a bimolecular reaction, anthraquinone, which, be st,ates, "are far from being easily unless it is immeasurably fast., only a fraction of the pairs oxidized."

fied with inactive inosite, has never been spoken of as "a bios." It is one of the constituents into which Lucas separated Wildiers' bios; by itself it has little if any effect on the yeast crop; but if the other constituent, namely, "Bios II," be present in the culture medium, addition of inosite much increases the crop. As to the inosite from tea, Miss Eastcott's paper, J. Phys. Chem., 32, 1094 (1928, states that it was recrystallized from methyl alcohol and water and obtained in two "clear white" crystalline forms, anhydrous and the dihydrate, both of which were analyzed; also that it made no difference in the yeast crops obtained with various preparations of Bios II whether Kahlbaum's inosite was employed or that from tea. Her laboratory note-books show that the last six recrystallizations had no effect on the "activity" of the latter.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
