In originally considering the 5 3 mechanism, involving base catalysis, Bennett, Brand, James, Saunders and Williams were trying to account for the small increase in nitrating power which accompanies the addition of water, up to about 10%, to sulphuric acid. The dilution increases the concentration of the bisulphate ion, which was believed to be the base involved (along with molecular sulphuric acid itself). The correct explanation of the effect has already been given ( 2.3.2).

Historically, caffeine has played an important role in trade and politics and even now the export of coffee is an extremely important part of world trade for many countries. The health effects of caffeine have been the subject of numerous scientific inquiries, many scientific papers and conferences, and many books and articles. Perhaps the best book to combine both historical and health aspects of caffeine is The World of Caffeine - The Science and Culture of the World s Most Popular Drug by Bennett Alan Weinberg and Bonnie K. Bealer, published in 2001. This book gives a wonderful account of the interaction of caffeine and society from its ancient roots to present times, as well as a look at the health effects. A book devoted almost entirely to the health effects of caffeine is Caffeine and Health by Jack E. James, published in 1991. There is no lack of information on caffeine.

The name strobe technique comes about because the photomultiplier PMT is gated -or strobed - by a voltage pulse that is synchronized with the pulsed light source. The strobe has the effect of turning on the PMT and measuring the emission intensity over a very short time window (Figure 7.6) (Bennett 1960 James et al. 1992). 

See, for example, James L. Brown, On the Action of Mercury Upon the Liver, Transactions of the Medical Society of New York (1864) 267-279. These early doubters led others, such as Philadelphia physician Joseph Carson, to launch their own investigations. By 1870 Carson was convinced that Bennett s experiments were correct and that the characteristic green stools were not the product of calomel s action on bile production.
