Virtanen was educated at the university in his native city of Helsinki, where he obtained his PhD in 1919, and at the universities of Zurich and Stockholm.
This AIV method, as it became known, named for his initials, was designed to stop the loss of nitrogenous material in storage.
In 1929 Virtanen found that cows fed on silage produced by his method gave milk indistinguishable in taste from that of cows fed on normal fodder.

 Artturi Virtanen
Artturi Virtanen va ser un bioquímic conegut pels seus estudis sobre les fermentacions i per la seva aplicació a la nutrició humana i animal, sent considerat un precursor de la moderna biotecnologia.
Virtanen estudià aspectes de la fermentació de la glucosa, diverses fermentacions bacterianes i la fixació de nitrogen que té lloc en les arrels de les lleguminoses.
Virtanen estudià també l'efecte del pH i de la temperatura en aquestes fermentacions i això el portà a desenvolupar el seu mètode (mètode AIV) de conservació dels farratges, d'enorme importància en les regions d'hiverns llargs i durs.

 Virtanen, Artturi Ilmari
Knowing that the fermentation product, lactic acid, increases the acidity of the silage to a point at which destructive fermentation ceases, he developed a procedure (known by his initials, AIV) for adding dilute hydrochloric or sulfuric acid to newly stored silage, thereby increasing the acidity of the fodder beyond that point.
Virtanen was also a professor of biochemistry at the Helsinki University of Technology (1931-39) and director of Finland's Biochemical Research Institute, Helsinki, from 1931.
He did valuable research on the nitrogen-fixing bacteria in the root nodules of leguminous plants, on improved methods of butter preservation, and on economical, partially synthetic cattle feeds.

The earliest modern examples of the raw food diet date to the 1800s.
The main idea behind the raw food diet is that cooked food is supposedly toxic, because cooking destroys the enzymes contained in food.
This belief is based on the work of Artturi Virtanen, a Nobel Prize-winning biochemist, and on the research of Dr. Edward Howell, an Illinois physician who researched how enzymes played a role in a person's diet.
