The significance of Warburg's work for the transformation of concepts in the investigation of vitamins is stressed, and the different investigative approaches of the competing groups are made clear. The grounds for the controversy carried out in their scientific publications, between Paul Karrer and Warburg on the one side, and Richard Kuhn on the other side, are fully examined, using the example of vitamin B2. A second level of discussion that remained hidden from behind the public scienfific debate is analysed; the priority dispute between the savants was connected with the interests of the chemical industry.
强调了瓦尔堡的工作对维生素研究中概念转变的重要性，并明确了相互竞争的研究小组的不同研究方法。以维生素B2为例，全面审视了保罗·卡雷尔和瓦尔堡一方与理查德·库恩另一方在其科学出版物中展开的争论的依据。分析了隐藏在公开科学辩论背后的第二个讨论层面；学者们之间的优先权之争与化学工业的利益相关。
