Georg Lockemann
Georg Lockemann (17 October 1871, in Hollenstedt – 4 December 1959, in Hollenstedt) was a German chemist.
Biography
He studied chemistry at the
University of Leipzig, where in 1904 he obtained his habilitation with a thesis on studies of acrolein and phenylhydrazine. In 1907 he was named head of the chemistry department at the Robert Koch Institute in Berlin, where he worked up until his retirement in 1937. In 1939 he was re-instated to his former position, and remained at the institute until 1945.[1]
In 1909 he obtained a new habilitation, this time at the
University of Berlin (1921–45). In 1946-48 he continued work as an instructor at the University of Göttingen.[1][2]
In addition to making improvements to the Marsh test, he developed methods for detecting
Robert Wilhelm Bunsen, titled "Lebensbild eines deutschen Naturforschers".[1]
