Radioactive tracers account for about 20% of the worldwide market for consumables and reagents for life science research. In 1994 the value was estimated at about 300 million. The principal fuU line manufacturers are Du Pont—NEN Research Products (Boston, Massachusetts) and Amersham International (Amersham, U.K.). These companies share roughly equaHy about 85% of the radiochemicals worldwide market. In addition to an extensive line of catalog products, these suppHers offer custom labeling and custom synthesis services. The rest of the market is shared by producers of a limited range of products or services, such as ICN Biomedicals (Costa Mesa, California) and American Radiolabeled Chemicals (St. Louis, Missouri).

The reference electrode contributes heavily to the economics of electroanalytical chemistry. Companies that sell and service electroanalytical instmmentation are few in number and small in size, or they are parts of much larger companies. One suppHer of electroanalytical instmmentation is Princeton AppHed Research Corp. (PARC) of Princeton, Newjersey. PARC is a subsidiary of EG G Instmments, Inc. Among the many suppHers of ion-selective electrodes are Orion (Boston, Massachusetts), Corning (Corning, New York), and Ingold (Wilmington, Massachusetts). Brinkmann Instmments, Inc. (Westbury, New York) is a useful suppHer of titration equipment.

Roger Adams (1889-1971) wa s born in Boston, Massachusetts, and received his Ph.D. in 1912 at Harvard. He taught at the University of Illinois from 1916 until his retirement in 1957, during which lime he had an enormous influence on the development of organic chemistry in the United States. Among many other accomplishments, he established the structure of tetrahydrocannabinol, the active ingredient in marijuana. 

Henry Gilman (1893-1986) was born in Boston, Massachusetts, and received his Ph D. in 1918 at Harvard. He then became professor of chemistry at Iowa State University 11919-1962), where he remained active until his death at ago 93. An exuemely prolific researcher, Gilman published more than 1000 scientific papers during his career. Remarkably, he lost much of his eyesight at age 53 but still went or to accomplish some of fiis finest work in later years. 

James Mason Crafts (1839-19171 was bo 1 n in Boston, Massachusetts, and graduated from Harvard in 1858, Although he did not receive a Ph D., he studied with eminent chemists in Europe for several years and was appointed in 1868 as the firs professor of chemistry at the newly founded Cornell University in Ithaca, New York. Ithaca winters proved too seve-e, however, and he soon moved to the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, where he served as president from 1897 to 1900.
