Abstract
THE four volumes of the Journal of the Chinese Chemical Society1 covering the years 1941–44 contain more than a hundred papers on all branches of the science. Many of the papers deal with problems of nutrition, vitamin content of food, fertilizers and soil types in China, and the analysis of Chinese drugs. There are investigations of the properties of vegetable gasoline made from native materials, cracking of vegetable oils, and the oxidation of natural fats and oils. The indican content of Szechwan indigo, the fixation of Chinese valonia by hide powder, and similar problems have been studied.
