The first clues to the treatment of scurvy occurred in 1535—1536 when Jacques Cartier, on advice from Newfoundland Indians, fed his crew an extract from spmce tree needles to cure an epidemic. Various physicians were recommending the use of citms fmits to cure scurvy in the mid-sixteenth century. Two hundred years later, in 1753, it was proved by Dr. James Lind, in his famous clinical experiment, that scurvy was associated with diet and caused by lack of fresh vegetables. He also demonstrated that oranges and lemons were the most effective cure against this disease. In 1753, inM Treatise on the Scurvy[ Lind pubhshed his results and recommendations (7). Eorty-two years later, in 1795, the British Navy included lemon juice in seamen s diets, resulting in the familiar nickname "limeys" for British seamen. Evidence has shown that even with undefined scorbutic symptoms, vitamin C levels can be low, and can cause marked diminution in resistance to infections and slow healing of wounds. 

FIG. 22-40 Normalized free-energy difference between distributed (II) and nondistributed (I) states of tbe solid particles versus tbree-pbase contact angle (collection at tbe interface is not considered). A negative free-energy difference implies tbat tbe distributed state is preferred over tbe nondistributed state. Note especially tbe significant effect of n, tbe ratio of tbe liquid droplet to solid-particle radius. [From Jacques, Ho-oaron ura, and Hemy, Am. Inst. Cbem. Eng. J., 25 1), 160 (1979).]...
