Clinical chemist Greta Hammarsten was born 130 years ago today. An expert in chemical analysis of kidney stones and blood diseases, she authored some 80 papers and the book Kliniska Laborationsmetoder, which was the standard text throughout the 1940s and 50s. #WomenInSTEM #WHM #ChemSky #BioSky 🧪

This is a humorous cartoon by Tom Gauld. In the image, four anthropomorphized elements—Earth, Air, Fire, and Water—are standing on a table, each with a cute face. They are looking excitedly at Dmitri Mendeleev, who is standing in front of a chalkboard. Mendeleev, who is the creator of the periodic table of elements, appears to be adding another column to the table, and one of the characters says, "Look! He's adding an eighth column. That must be for us!"

The existence of Toblerone implies he existence of Toblerol, Toblerane, Toblerene, and Tobleryne. #Chemsky

Top Left: two Toblerone packets aligned vertically with the letter "O" on top representing a ketone in organic chemistry formalisms. Top Right: One Toblerone packet with an "OH" on top reprsenting an alcohol functional group in organic chemistry
Bottom: 1,2, and 3 toblerone boxes aligned with annotations at the ends representing carbon-carbon single, double and triple bonds

Did you know that you can't buy Toblerone in a three-pack? They tried it, but it turns out you get Toblerone, Toblertwo, and Toblerthree.

Turkish industrial chemist Ayşe Saffet Rıza Alpar was born 123 years ago today. In 1932 she became the 1st Turkish woman to receive a PhD in chemistry (Remziye Hisar earned hers one year later), and the 1st woman university rector in the nation, authoring 5 books as well. #WomenInSTEM #ChemSky 🧪

New friends—tell me something about you! What book are you reading right now? Or for the new #chemsky friends what got you excited about chemistry/science? (Photo of me doing some spectroscopy a couple months ago)

Physician/biochemist Dr. Greta Hammarsten (b. #OTD in 1896) helped establish the field of clinical #chemistry as a modern medical discipline in Scandinavia. She was the driving force behind practical, reliable laboratory methods that improved patient diagnosis. #WomenInSTEM #WHM #ChemSky 🧪

Black-and-white photograph of Swedish physician and biochemist Dr. Greta Hammarsten seated at an office desk. Her right hand rests near her cheek and the other lies on the top of the desk. She smiles gently toward the viewer, and has short, dark, wavy hair. She wears a dark patterned jacket over a light blouse. Papers and a pen are visible on the desk in front of her, with a large multi-paned window in the background. The image is captioned “GRETA HAMMARSTEN” at the bottom.

Did you know the wasabi in most sushi restaurants isn't wasabi? Or that a chemical synergy between dried seaweed and raw fish enhances sushi's savoury flavours? Learn more about sushi science with this infographic, as requested by my sushi-mad seven-year-old 🍣 wp.me/s4aPLT-sushi #ChemSky 🧪

This infographic titled "Sushi chemistry: nori, wasabi and sticky rice" explores the science behind sushi. It features three main panels with illustrations, chemical structures, and explanations. The left section explains how amylopectin in rice creates stickiness and how acetic acid from vinegar aids gelatinisation. The middle panel covers umami flavours from glutamate, inosinate, and guanylate found in nori and raw fish, displaying their molecular structures. The right panel discusses allyl isothiocyanate in wasabi and horseradish, along with gingerol and shogaol compounds in pickled ginger (gari). Photos of six different sushi rolls line the bottom.
