In this historical perspective, we focus on selected discoveries that Albert Frenkel (1919-2015) made all by himself - single-handedly - which is the discovery of photophosphorylation and NAD reduction in anoxygenic photosynthetic bacteria. Then, we present various aspects of his research life through his unpublished letters with some key scientists in his research field. To give a glimpse of his personal life, we have also provided some photographs.
从历史的角度来看,我们关注的是阿尔伯特·弗伦克尔(1919 - 2015)独自取得的某些发现——即他发现了无氧光合细菌中的光合磷酸化和NAD还原。然后,我们通过他与研究领域一些关键科学家未发表的信件来展现他研究生涯的各个方面。为了让大家了解他的个人生活,我们还提供了一些照片。
