The Royal Society: Science in the Making

Referee's report by Horace Tabberer Brown, on a paper 'Studies on enzyme action' by George Senter

Reference number: RR/16/229

Date: 05 June 1904

Description

Sectional Committee: [Physics and chemistry]

Not recommended for publication. The principle title is 'Studies on Enzyme Action' but the author gives no proof whatever that he is dealing with an enzyme or measuring its rate of action by the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide. All the author's arguments based on ionic dissociation are beside the mark until he has proved this fundamental point.

[Published in Proceedings of the Royal Society, 1904].

Endorsed on recto as received 7 June 1904.
