This contribution draws attention to the circulation of materialities and persons as a central feature in the constitution of experimental cultures. The protein and ribosome research at the Max Planck Society (MPG)-with a main focus on the research conducted by Brigitte Wittmann-Liebold at the Max Planck Institute for Molecular Genetics-serves as an example to highlight some of the central conditions that determined the material circulation in molecular biology: the very organizational framework of gender and economics. In doing so, this contribution argues for a historical narrative that stresses the conditions facilitating the circulation of technologies, materials, and personnel. Histories of this kind contribute to an integrated view of the scientific, technological, social, political, economic, and cultural specificities of experimental cultures.
本研究旨在强调物质和人员的流通是实验文化构成的核心特征。马克斯·普朗克学会（MPG）的蛋白质和核糖体研究——主要关注 Brigitte Wittmann-Liebold 在马克斯·普朗克分子遗传学研究所的研究——作为一个例子，突出了决定分子生物学物质流通的一些核心条件：性别和经济学的组织框架。通过这样做，本研究提出了一个历史叙事，强调了促进技术、材料和人员流通的条件。这类历史有助于对实验文化的科学、技术、社会、政治、经济和文化特性进行综合观察。
