and anticarcinogens
chemicals
Raffy Espiritu – Asha peanuts (big seeds and pods)
Jose O. Juliano - famous for researches in nuclear
chemistry and physics
- receivers of the TONYM award for his
involvement in Nuclear Research
Francisco Quisumbing
(Filipino Chemist)
famous for his invention of the Quink
trademark ink that is used in Parker Pens.
Quink stands for Quisumbing Ink. It cleans
the pen as it writes, and dries quickly on
paper, but remains liquid inside the pen.

molecular biology
in particular the
discoveries of numerous
Conus peptides. (highly
precise drugs for pain,
epilepsy, and other
disorders of the
nervous system).

Nitrogen
through
experimentation with a mouse, a candle,
and burning phosphorus
Foreign Chemists
Robert Boyle (1627-1691)

properties of air and other gases)
Through research he rejected the
accepted definition of matter, -Proposed Boyle’s Law (1662)

- English chemist and physicist,
- developed atomic theory
- produced the first table of atomic weights
Amedeo Avogadro (1776-1856)
- His hypothesis stated that equal volumes of
gases, at the same temperature and pressure, had
the same amount of molecules (Avogadro’s
number)
Foreign Chemists
Joseph Louis Gay-Lussac (1778-1850)
French chemist and physicist
- developed the law of volumes concerning the
combination of gases
- discovered Boron
Robert Wilhelm Bunsen (1811-1899)
- German chemist; spectroscope; bunsen burner
(lab asst. Peter Desaga); elements Cs and Rb
