“…On one occasion, Gene needed to carry out refrigerated centrifugation. So true “to the wax‐and‐string school of experiments” (1), he cleared out one of the refrigerators and placed a centrifuge with a long cord to the power plug into this for his centrifugation. The response of Huggins is not recorded.…”

“…“ to feel that one has contributed to this splendid enterprise, on however small a scale, is reward enough for labor at the end of the day.” E. P. Kennedy wrote this in “Sailing to Byzantium” (1), when commenting on Fritz Lipmann's statement in his Nobel Lecture, “We feel, nevertheless that the drive and urge to explore nature in all its facets is one of the most important functions of humanity.” The first comment is the modest expression of a distinguished scientist and gentleman, whose contributions are landmarks in lipid biochemistry.…”

“…In the 1980s, Eugene P. Kennedy figured out why E. coli has trouble in the pond. Kennedy recalls: “Driving home to Brookline from Woods Hole one evening, I [asked] how does a cell detect the osmolarity of the medium in which it is growing (19)? His answer: membrane sugars and lipids permit E. coli to handle the osmotic trauma of leaving our gut to end up in the can (20).…”
The cell knows two methods of getting out the energy of [foodstuff] molecules; it either fragments them or burns them. The first method we refer to as fermentation, the second, oxidation (von Szent-Györgyi, 1937 [172] p. 165).
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.
