Isaac Harris, of Squibb & Sons' laboratories, New Brunswick, New Jersey, while Mr. E. R. Long furnished preparations of such sub- stances as zein, which made it possible to make up plates of biocoUoids entirely from products of plants. The swelling of mixtures of agar and of the protein extract of bean in plates to mm. in thickness were as shown in table Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original MacDougal, Daniel Trembly, 1865-1958.
