Die Hautreinigung und die Hautpflege mit Natron haben auch noch den Vorteil, dass durch das Pulver ein Peeling-Effekt entsteht, welcher je nach aufdrcken auf der Haut, strker oder schwcher sein kann. Blut, cholsaures Natron darin, von Enderlin 83, 62. Das Pulver reinigt die Haut und kann, dank seiner antibakteriellen Wirkung, hervorragend bei Pickeln helfen. Starting from the assumption that modern laboratory research depends on containers that regulate the spatial, material, and epistemic enclosure of its experimental milieus and objects, this essay argues that the standardization of glass quality from the 1900s to the 1930s must be understood as a reconfiguration of a “marginal” but nonetheless constitutive element of modern laboratory environments. Bierstein, ber die Bereitung des Bieres daraus, von Kaiser 83, 385. ![]() ![]() It had become apparent by 1900 that glass, a supposedly neutral and inert material, not only interacted with its environment but also interfered with anything it contained-chemically, physically, and biologically. ![]() At the turn of the twentieth century, so-called “glass diseases” seriously affected the use of scientific and technical glassware. ![]()
