Wilhelm Püttmann studied chemistry at RWTH Aachen and the University of Cologne. He received his doctorate in organic synthesis under Professor Emanuel Vogel in Cologne in 1980. Following two years of postdoctoral work, he moved to the field of geochemical analysis, assuming the leadership of lab and research group work at the Institute of Petroleum and Coal at RWTH Aachen. He completed his habilitation in 1994 with work that focused on the interaction of heavy metals and organic components in sediments. Wilhelm Püttmann has been Professor for Environmental Analysis in the Department of Geosciences and Geography at Goethe University, Frankfurt am Main, since 1996. His research interests focus on the application of mass spectrometry to the analysis of organic trace substances in the aquatic environment and to the analysis of biomarkers in sediments.
In Germany, drinking water supplies are plentiful and generally of a high quality. Drinking water is in Germany most commonly produced from groundwater (69.6 %), with a further 12.4 % (…)

The two researchers are being acknowledge ... more
How do killer T cells know where danger is coming from?
How do killer T cells recognise cells in the body that have been infected by viruses? Matter foreign to the body is presented on the surface of these cells as antigens that act as a kind of road sign. A network of accessory proteins – the chaperones – ensure that this sign retains its stabi ... more
Laboratory study: effect of antibodies against omicron variants BA.1 and BA.2 wears off quickly
The omicron variants BA.1 and BA.2 of the SARS-CoV-2 virus, which are dominant from about December to April, can undermine the protection against infection offered by vaccinations or survived infections after only three months. This is shown by a study from Frankfurt under the leadership of ... more
From feast to famine and back – no problem for bacteria
Bacteria are true survivors. In the course of evolution, they have developed numerous strategies to adapt to rapidly changing, uncertain environmental conditions. Their metabolism is much more sophisticated than that of human beings. Within minutes they can regulate their gene expression an ... more
Why biosimilars and not biogenerics?
Medicines produced using genetic techniques have existed since 2006, called “similar biological medicinal products” or “biosimilars”. Until a year ago, this was a fairly low-profile group, even in expert circles. This has all changed now, however, with the recent licensing of the first bios ... more
What would medicine be without drugs? But are these drugs being used optimally today? Not at all, as we now know thanks to the findings of molecular medicine. Because for the use of these drugs, it is important to observe two aspects: the disease and the patient. Only slowly is it becom ... more
Claudia Büchel, born in 1962, studied biology at the University of Mainz, where she also received her doctorate and, in 2001, the qualification to teach plant physiology. After a postdoctoral research period at the Biological Research Centre, Szeged, she worked for four years as a research ... more
Jörg Soppa, born in 1958, studied biochemistry in Tübingen and then went on to do his doctorate at the Max Planck Institute of Biochemistry in Martinsried near Munich. In 1990 he established his own research group there and held courses at the Institute of Genetics and Microbiology of Munic ... more
Heinfried H. Radeke studied medicine at the Hannover Medical School (MHH) and received his medical license in 1985. His Ph.D. thesis was recognized as the best research dissertation of 1986. After two years as an assistant physician at the Göttingen University Hospital, he began his career ... more
