He has been given credit for discovering cell biology and cells in plants and the actual discovery of the process of osmosis. His early researches into the voice introduced the first modern concept of vocal cord movement. The Mauritian plant genus Trochetia was named in his honour. Works. New Theory of the Voice (1800) New Theory of Harmony (1810)
1776-1847. French physiologist who discovered osmosis. He observed the diffusion of a solvent through a semi-permeable membrane, calling the process osmosis. In the area of plant physiology, Dutrochet recognized the significance of green pigment in the use of carbon dioxide, investigated the mechanisms of respiration, light sensitivity, and ...
Figure 5.2.1 5.2. 1: Healthy human T-cell. If you look at a living matter with a microscope — even a simple light microscope — you will see that it consists of cells. Cells are the basic units of the structure and function of living things. They are the smallest units that can carry out the processes of life. All organisms are made up of ...

The cellular theory was produced in two steps by Schleiden and Schwann (1838–1839) and then by Remak (1855) and Wirchow (1855–1858). This theory claimed that cells were universal and microscopic entities, constituting living beings and that a cell was always produced by the division of another cell. Since that period up to now, the cell has ...

reinvestigate the work of Rene-Joachim-Henri Dutrochet, one of the predecessors, whose writings have played a part in the undermining of Schwann's position. In a thoroughgoing study of Dutrochet's work Rich has concluded that "by careful observa-tion and experiment, and by penetrating reasoning, [he] was led to formulate the cell theory in the
Henry Dutrochet ( 1824) accepted some of H. Milne Edwards's ideas (he had seen the same globules), but he made great advance by directing attention to cells in the modern sense, as typified for ...
Sep 1, 2003 · Dutrochet and Cell Membranes. Although Nollet utilized a biological membrane layer, namely a pig bladder, the conceptual discovery would not be immediately applied to cell membrane theory (Nezelof ...
