This mask [...] from species to species but is, more or less, a personal value of the animal (or human) who is being tested. Nutrition for Prevention of Deficiency Diseases One of the oldest diseases known to seafarers is [...] documented symptoms. He divided the patients into six pairs and gave them each a specific diet in order to test the effects of nutrition and also of hygiene. After 14 days, Lind was able to conclude that the only

Thompson’s first experiment involved testing dif- ferent types of material to determine how well they conduct heat. To do so, he placed the material he wished to test around a hollow, metal cylindrical con- [...] work- house. Using low-cost ingredients, such as potatoes and barley, he began a long series of tests with farm animals to see which combinations of ingredients kept the ani- mals healthiest with the

In Algeria, he invented and tested many ver- sions of his solar energy devices for many different useful purposes. Perfecting his solar
