Description

Sectional committee: Chemistry

Not recommended for publication in Proceedings. It contains no new scientific facts, but only suggests a speculative theory of the structure of proteins. The investigations are quite superficial. The theory is ingenious and deserved publication in some form, perhaps in Nature.

[Published in Proceedings of the Royal Society A, 1937].

Endorsed on verso as received 1 September 1936.
