"' Th�ophile Ernest de Donder "'(; 19 August 1872 11 May 1957 ) was a Belgian mathematician and physicist famous for his work ( published in 1923 ) in developing correlations between the Newtonian concept of chemical affinity and the Gibbsian concept of free energy.

The method employs chemical affinity capture coupled with massively parallel DNA sequencing to identify genomic sites where small molecules interact with their target proteins or DNA . It was first described by Lars Anders et al . in the January, 2014 issue of " Nature Biotechnology ".

"' Walther Hermann Nernst "', ( 25 June 1864 18 November 1941 ) was a German chemist who is known for his theories behind the calculation of chemical affinity as embodied in the third law of thermodynamics, for which he won the 1920 Nobel Prize in chemistry.

However, these results were mostly ignored until 1860, partly due to the belief that atoms of one element would have no chemical affinity toward atoms of the same element, and partly due to apparent exceptions to Avogadro's law that were not explained until later in terms of dissociating molecules.

With the writings of Th�ophile de Donder as precedent, Ilya Prigogine and Defay in " Chemical Thermodynamics " ( 1954 ) defined chemical affinity as the rate of change of the uncompensated heat of reaction " Q "'as the reaction progress variable or reaction extent " ? " grows infinitesimally:

In 1809 Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, in his classic novella " Elective Affinities ", wrote of the " marriage tie, " and by analogy shows how strong marriage unions are similar in character to that by which the particles of quicksilver find a unity together through the process of chemical affinity.

One group agreed with Volta that the electric current was the result of an electromotive force of contact at the two metals; the other adopted a modification of Galvani's view and asserted that the current was the result of a chemical affinity between the metals and the acids in the pile.

During the entire 18th century, the dominant view in regard to heat and light was that put forward by Isaac Newton, called the Newtonian hypothesis , which stated that light and heat are forms of matter attracted or repelled by other forms of matter, with forces analogous to gravitation or to chemical affinity.

He has made adventurous use of new microanatomical methods, invented or improved by himself, in order to examine descending pathways in the brainstem, such as the double labelling of cortical neurones by fluorescent dyes with different excitation wavelengths and chemical affinities, transported by axoplasmic flow in a retrograde direction from separately injected termini.
