	John Cornforth Biography / Biography of John Cornforth History of Scientific Discovery Biography
		John Warcup Cornforth received the Nobel Prize for chemistry in 1975 for his research on the stereochemistry of enzyme-catalyzed reactions.
		Cornforth was born in Sydney, Australia, on September 7, 1917, to J. Cornforth and Hilda Eipper Cornforth.
		Cornforth's key contribution to stereochemistry was his development of a technique to label hydrogen isotopes to show how a molecule becomes synthesized within a cell.

	Cornforth, Sir John Warcup (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		Cornforth remained at Oxford until 1946 and then joined the staff of the National Institute for Medical Research in London, where he remained until 1962.
		Cornforth investigated enzymes that catalyze change in organic compounds (substrates) by taking the place of hydrogen atoms in a substrate's chains and rings.
		In his syntheses and descriptions of the structure of various terpenes, olefins, and steroids, he determined specifically which cluster of hydrogen atoms in a substrate is replaced by an enzyme to cause a given change in the substrate.

		Cornforth says that reading the original scientific literature helped him to become a scientist because it showed the evidence behind the things that he was being taught – and some of this evidence was wrong.
		John Cornforth is also a tough-minded thinker and critic of modern societal attitudes and values, and of the role of science within it.
		Cornforth goes on the relate the accidental discovery of platinum as a treatment for cancer, made when two researchers passed an electrical current through a tumour cell culture and observed the cells dying.

		John Warcup Cornforth was born on September 7, 1917 in Sydney, Australia.
		Popjak and John began to concert experiments in which the disciplines of chemistry and biochemistry could be applied to this subject.
		They were led to devise a complete carbon-by-carbon degradation of the nineteen-carbon ring structure of cholesterol and to identify, by means of radioactive tracers, the arrangement of the acetic acid molecules from which the system is built.
