2. Zemplén worked in Berlin under Emil Fischer (1907-10) who established his interest in carbohydrate chemistry.
3. Than also studied under both Bunsen and Wurtz. cf. Kauffman, G.B. J. Chem Educ. 66, 1989, 213.
4. Redtenbacher's PhD work was in botany, but he later studied chemistry with J.F. Jacquin as well as Liebig at Giessen. (cf. Mainz)
