 Carl Peter Henrik Dam Biography / Biography of Carl Peter Henrik Dam Biography Biography
The Danish biochemist Carl Peter Henrik Dam (1895-1976) shared the Nobel Prize in Physiology/Medicine for his discovery of vitamin K. Henrik Dam, the son of Emil Dam, an apothecary, was born in Copenhagen on Feb. 21, 1895.
By 1939 Dam had shown that the blood of chicks fed on a vitamin K-free diet was very deficient in prothrombin, which is normally present and essential to clotting.
In 1939-1940 Dam and his coworkers demonstrated that a prothrombin deficiency in newborn babies, causing them to bleed easily, could be effectively treated by administering vitamin K to the infant or to the mother before the birth.

 Basic problems in dam design (from dam) --  Encyclopædia Britannica
Most modern dams continue to be of two basic types: masonry (concrete) and embankment (earth or rock fill).
Masonry dams are typically used to block streams running through narrow gorges, as in mountainous terrain; though such dams may be very high, the total amount of material required is limited.
The dam is 666 feet (203 m) high, 696 feet (212 m) wide at the crest, and has a volume of 647,000 cubic yards (495,000 cubic m).

Dam indtog ved sin hjemkomst i 1946 det professorat i biokemi ved Polyteknisk Læreanstalt, som han var udnævnt til under sit fravær.
Henrik Dam kaldte det fedtstof, han undersøgte, for K-vitamin, fordi det var nødvendigt for blodets evne til at størkne — koagulere.
Havde Dam i stedet for kyllinger brugt rotter til sine forsøg, var han næppe blevet ledt på sporet af K-vitaminet.

Danish biochemist Henrik Dam, born on this date in 1895, is noted for discovering vitamin K. While studying chicks whose blood clotted slower than normal, Dam thought the chicks were deficient in vitamin C, but the addition of vitamin C did not prevent the chicks from hemorrhaging.
Additional research showed that certain foods, such as vegetables and liver, that allowed the blood to clot properly contained vitamin K. By introducing vitamin K to vitamin-deficient newborns, Dam and others helped save many lives.
The Nobel Prize committee, in honoring Dam in 1943, noted, "it is … in the checking of hemorrhages in newborn babies that this vitamin has assumed its greatest practical importance."
