We are seeing the cells of plants and animals more and more clearly as chemical factories, where the various products are manufactured in separate workshops. – Eduard Buchner
As is known, the sugar molecule as it passes through lactic acid can easily be split by purely chemical means. – Eduard Buchner
We allowed ourselves to become particularly interested in research into the appearance of intermediate products of sugar decomposition during cell-free fermentation. – Eduard Buchner
