"Emil Abderhalden (March 9, 1877 – August 5, 1950) was a Swiss biochemist and physiologist. His main findings, though disputed already in the 1920s, were not finally rejected until the late 1990s. Whether his misleading findings were based on fraud or simply the result of a lack of scientific rigor remains unclear. Abderhalden´s drying pistol, used in chemistry, was first described by one of his students in a textbook Abderhalden edited." - (en.wikipedia.org 30.01.2020)
