| Description | Citation typed |
| Citation | Distinguished for his researches on (a) muscle biochemistry, (b) the study of the nature and properties of metalloprotein enzymes (peroxidase, phenoloxidases and carbonice anhydrase); (c) enzymic synthesis of acetylcholine in vitro; (d) carbohydrate and phosphorus metabolism of moulds, and (e) fundamental contributions to the knowledge of the biochemistry and physiology of mammalian seminal fluid.
