Descripción: Miescher, who may be regarded as the founder of the knowledge of the chemistry of the cell nucleus, carried out his initial investigations on isolated pus nuclei obtained from discarded surgical bandages. He showed (1) that the nuclear material contained an unusual phosphorus compound which he called ‘nuclein’, and which we now know to have been nucleoprotein. In later studies, he became interested in salmon sperm as a source of nuclear material, and he found that the isolated sperm heads contained an acidic compound which gave analytical figures for phosphorus, carbon and nitrogen corresponding to what is now known as nucleic acid.
