RESEARCHES CONDUCTED IN THE DAUBENY LABORATORY IN RECENT 

 YEARS, WITH REFERENCES TO THE JOURNALS IN WHICH THE 

 RESEARCHES HAVE BEEN PUBLISHED. 



1888. December. The spectroscopic examination of the ash of a 

 mould (Aspergillus m'ger) which had been watered with 

 a weak solution of a zinc salt. It was found that a small 

 quantity of zinc had been taken up by the plant. The in- 

 vestigation was carried out by Mr. MANLEY at the request 

 of Dr. G. BUCKMASTER. 



1891. Summer Vacation. Mr. MANLEY made a quantitative examina- 

 tion of a large number of juices from various plants for invert 

 sugar. Professor VINES read a paper upon the subject at 

 the Meeting of the British Association in the same year.

 Green Leaves, Annals of Botany, v. pp. 40912, 1891, and

1893. March. Analyses of the embryo and endosperm of certain 

 seeds (Coix lachrymd] were performed by Messrs. MANLEY 

 and GROOM.

1893. December. Messrs. V. H. VELEY and MANLEY commenced an 



elaborate determination of certain of the physical constants 

 of pure nitric acid. The experiments in connexion with this 

 research were continued until the Christmas Vacation of 

 1900.

 Nitric Acid, Philosophical Transactions, vol. 191, 1898. 



1894. November. Mr. MANLEY made several nitrogen determina- 



tions in connexion with a research carried out by Miss 

 O'Brien in Professor Vines' s laboratory.
