Albert Jodlbauer

Albert Jodlbauer (April 27, 1871 in Munich – May 13, 1945 in Thierberg) was a German pharmacologist and toxicologist.

From 1891 to 1896 he studied medicine at the University of Munich, where in 1896 he received his doctorate as a pupil of Otto Bollinger. Following graduation he worked as an assistant in the institute of pharmacology at Munich under the directorship of Hermann von Tappeiner. In 1908 he became an associate professor, and in 1914 was named departmental head of the pharmacological institute. From 1923 onward, he was a full professor of pharmacy and pharmacology at the veterinary faculty of the University of Munich.[1]

During the early years of the 20th century, with Tappeiner and Oscar Raab, he studied the physiological and pharmacological effects of light, and with Tappeiner, published a number of works on the concept of "photodynamic action". In this context, he discovered that the photosensitizing effect of fluorescent substances was dependent upon the presence of oxygen.[2][1]

His other areas of research included hemolysis, especially by hypertonic solutions of neutral salts, the effect of oxalate and fluoride poisoning in the blood calcium and the pharmacological action of bitters.[2][1]

gollark: They can't do it to existing repos presumably, it would break things.
gollark: It is not pizza.
gollark: I'm not sure how they plan to implement this exactly, and it seems very pointless and stupid.
gollark: Unrelatedly, CSS grid is cool and all but also annoying and so complex that my browser literally has a built-in grid debugger.
gollark: If you find *one* example of it behaving oddly, that makes it NONCOMPLIANT and EVIL.
