    Notes: [Auszug] ONE of the puzzling features of the modern theory of matter is the considerable number of different ultimate particles: photons, neutrinos, negative and positive electrons, mesons, protons and neutrons. To each type of particle corresponds a certain type of field, and all these fields are ...

    Notes: [Auszug] IT has been found that the urinary excretion of mepacrine has a relation to the excretion of ammonia. The simplest description of this empirical relation is that the mepacrine clearance from the plasma is directly proportional to the rate of excretion of ammonia. This may be expressed thus: ...
