“My main thesis will be that in the study of the intermediate processes of metabolism we have to deal not with complex substances which elude ordinary chemical methods, but with the simple substances undergoing comprehensible reactions... I intend also to emphasise the fact that it is not alone with the separation and identification of products from the animal that our present studies deal; but with their reactions in the body; with the dynamic side of biochemical phenomena.” FactsBodyProcessSidesSimpleAnimalDealsStudyProductsOrdinaryMethodComplexesSeparationReactionsSubstanceChemicalsNot AloneIdentificationThesisEludeMetabolismBiochemistry Author:Frederick Gowland Hopkins
“The cell, too, has a geography, and its reactions occur in colloidal apparatus, of which the form, and the catalytic activity of its manifold surfaces, must efficiently contribute to the due guidance of chemical reactions.” FormActivityDuesSurfaceReactionsCellsGuidanceChemicalsGeographyManifoldChemical Reactions Author:Frederick Gowland Hopkins
