Lloyd Augustus Hall

Lloyd Augustus Hall’s contribution to science largely involves food preservation. Lloyd’s interest in food chemistry, a new area of chemistry, started while working at Boher Chemical Laboratory. Before his inventions, table salt (sodium chloride) was used as the major food preservative especially in preserving meat (Wilson and Jane, 34). However, table salt was not effective enough, as meat could only be preserved in a short period using this technique. Following various experiments, Lloyd came up with “flash-drying” technique as an alternative to table salt preservation. The technique involved a combination of sodium nitrate crystals and nitrite and sodium chloride, which ...

There have been few people that have matched up to the scientific know how of the Curie family. The Curie family has received the most Nobel Prizes in history. Marie Curie, the matriarch of the family, was the first women to win a Nobel Prize and is the only person to win a Nobel Prize in two separate fields of science. Her accomplishments include describing the theory of “radioactivity” as well as coining the term; she also discovered to elements, polonium and radium. The theories of radioactivity helped during World War I where she assisted on the front lines in creating ...

Nicolas Leblanc, in 1791, gave the world a chemical compound which revolutionized food products, Sodium Bicarbonate. More commonly known as baking soda, this base has become an integral substance found in almost every household. Leblanc, a surgeon and private physician, was striving to make ends meet for his family when he heard about the prize offered by the French Academy of Science to anybody who can develop a process for producing soda ash from salt. The prize finally went to Leblanc, who had come up with the Leblanc process, which developed baking soda from seas salt and sulfuric acid. The unfortunate part ...

I am Ghada Aldossary, a 35 years-old Echocardiogram Technologist of Saudi Arabian descent. I am married with four kids. I graduated from Dammam College in 1999 with Chemistry major. I always thought that chemistry major would quickly get me a placement but after graduation it dawned on me that there were overly many graduates with chemistry major who yet to get employed. I did not find a good offer until I heard that one of our best Hospitals in Eastern province was seeking Electrocardiogram Technician. The hospital, Aramco Hospital as it is called, is located in Dhahran on the eastern coast of ...

I. Introduction
Quality control refers to the policies and procedures a company institutes in order to ensure that its products or services are the best possible available, comply with external and internal standards, government regulations, and to decrease or eliminate any problem, errors or issues that might occur in the production or enjoyment of the goods or service. Dr. Kaoru Ishikawa was one of the first persons to advocate for company-wide/total quality control, or the integration of quality control practices in every facet of the company’s business model. In addition, Dr. Ishikawa was the father of the Japanese ...
