At this time a New York lawyer, George H. Bissell, decided to exploit this mineral source. Along with James M. Townsend, a banker from New Haven, and Benjamin Silliman, a chemistry and geology professor at Yale University, he started the Pennsylvania Oil Company. 

Automation of the procedures for analyzing steroids is difficult because of the present lack of a really efficient liquid-liquid extractor. Townsend and James (TIO) have published an ingenious method for adapting an Autoanalyzer or similar system to the estimation of cortisol in plasma by their earlier fluorescence method. The semiautomated method is capable of making 20 estimations of plasma cortisol per hour using 2 ml samples of plasma. 

As discussed above, the precision of automated methods becomes evident only when tested by double-blind quality control (R4, W3). Although Vestergaard s method appears to be good in this respect, it is interesting and perhaps cautionary that Townsend and James claimed a precision no better than d=1.0 /tg/100 ml for their automated method for plasma cortisol, i.e., coefficient of variation of about 8% of the mean. This was much better (one-third to one-half) when sequential rather than random duplicates were assessed (TIO).
