Date

6 March 1930

Description

Box 5

Typescript

Thanks Priestley for letter. Is certain that there are crystals of cellulose. It is a shade less certain that the dimensions sideways are those given by Mark and Andress; discusses this and criticisms by Sponsler and Dore of Mark's work. Rothamsted have asked him for pictures: they are interested in the xylan constituent of hemicellulose. Priestley may like to see pictures of cellulose which Muller made using purified ramie fibre.
