resources Students' resources Melvin Calvin Born 8 Apr 1911; died 8 Jan 1997 Melvin Calvin was born in St. Paul, Minnesota, USA. His parents were Russian immigrants. He went straight from his first science degree to a doctorate and then on to a career in scientific research. He began his most famous work on photosynthesis at the end of the Second World War. The story is that on the day the Japanese surrendered after the dropping of the two atom bombs, Earnest Lawrence told the 34 year old Calvin that it was 'time to do something useful' with all the radioactive carbon-14 he had discovered how to make during the war years. Calvin set up a team of young scientists - at 34 he was about the oldest - and for the first time he got together biologists, chemists and physicists who all worked together contributing different skills to the research. Calvin decided to use carbon-14 isotope as a tracer in the reactions of photosynthesis. It was a very difficult process, because the reactions had to be carried out in living cells. The radioactive tracer in the form of labelled carbon dioxide was given to the plants for a brief time. The plant cells were then killed at various intervals after the labelled gas was given and the labelled chemicals identified. It took years, but eventually Calvin and his team mapped the complete route that carbon travels through a plant during photosynthesis, starting from its absorption as atmospheric carbon dioxide to its conversion into carbohydrates and other organic compounds. The sequence of reactions are called the

NEWS RELEASE, 1/9/97 Melvin Calvin, 1961 Nobelist and UC Berkeley professor, dies at age 85 by Kathleen Scalise Berkeley Nobelist Melvin Calvin, a University of California at Berkeley chemistry professor and a leading scientist at the Ernest Orlando Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, died Wednesday (Jan. 8) at Alta Bates Hospital in Berkeley following years of declining health. He was 85. Labeled "Mr. Photosynthesis" by Time magazine in 1961, Calvin was awarded the Nobel Prize for using radioactive carbon-14 to show steps by which plants turn carbon dioxide and water into sugar during photosynthesis. Today this process is known as the "Calvin Cycle" in photosynthesis. Photosynthesis is the process by which plants capture energy from the sun. "For many years, Melvin was a vital personality on the Berkeley campus who contributed greatly to science," said UC Berkeley Chancellor Chang-Lin Tien. "It is a sad occasion to lose such a colleague." Calvin, who won the Nobel Prize in chemistry in 1961, was a University Professor of Chemistry. Born April 8, 1911, he retired in 1980, but continued his research until recently. His findings sparked the U.S. Department of Energy's interest in solar energy as a source of power.

Writers and Writing Melvin Calvin's Trail of Light Article # : Section : NATURAL SCIENCE Issue Date : 2,967 Words Author : George B. Kauffman and Isaac Mayo There is no such thing as pure science. By this I mean that physics impinges on astronomy on the one hand, and chemistry and biology on the other. The synthesis of a really new concept requires some sort of union. Melvin Calvin, Following the Trail of Light Every oxygen molecule in the air we breathe was once split from a water molecule (the "O" in H20) by an organism (most likely a plant) carrying out photosynthesis. There is no greater example of mutualism on our planet. Children often learn that "unlike animals, which inhale oxygen and exhale carbon dioxide, plants inhale carbon dioxide and exhale oxygen:" Well, not exactly. Actually, plants "breathe" oxygen to sustain life much as animals do. In addition, plants produce oxygen as a side-product in the first step of a remarkable and complex process that uses energy from light in converting carbon dioxide gas from the air into glucose, one of the simple 6-carbon sugars and the basic food unit for all life on earth. The chemical pathway by which single carbon atoms in carbon dioxide gas become joined in 6-carbon units was discovered by Melvin Calvin, a scientist whose eclectic style shaped one of the foremost research laboratories in the country-a laboratory that now bears his name.

People who made Photosynthesis Known Megan Maness There are a lot of people who helped or made photosynthesis known. One of the most famous people was Melvin Calvin. Melvin and one of his assistants, A. A. Benson, were the first to realize that carbon 14 could not unravel the mystery of photosynthesis. After that in 1948, Calvin and Benson began doing experiments using algae. They created a cycle to explain the process to others and named it The Calvin Cycle. In 1961, Melvin Calvin won a Nobel prize for chemistry. You are probably tired of hearing of Melvin Calvin, so I will tell you about some of the other people who also made photosynthesis famous. Philip Hauge Abelsone made replicas of some of the proteins found in oxygen. In the 1920's, an English biochemist, John B. S. Haldane, pointed out " that if life was responsible for the oxygen in the atmosphere, photosynthesis ought to have started when there was no oxygen in it and carbon dioxide was present instead." R. Emerson and W. Arnold illuminated plant cells with very short flashes of light. Stephen Hales, an English botanist, thought that since plants could give off gasses, it seemed to him they could also take in gasses. Joseph Black was interested in carbon dioxide. I'm still not done with these people yet. Jean Baptiste Boussingault was the first to conduct experiments to study the part that nitrogen played in photosynthesis in 1837. John Dalton named the atoms and then decided that atoms that cling together form molecules. Six carbon atoms, twelve hydrogen atoms, and six oxygen atoms is what Rudolf Fittig found in glucose. In 1870, a German chemist, Adolf Baeyer decided photosynthesis should form formaldehyde.
