predatory mites, lunar meteorites, gall stones - curiosities of knowledge

Hubert Filser

predatory mites, lunar meteorites, gallstones: What do left with the often bizarre and sometimes valuable collections, amateurs, and scientists?


returns in this story is about predatory mites to sooty stones, for which at markets in West Africa, one million euros paid to a Berlin musician who studied in Asia, butterflies, a Nobel laureate, who sees his life's work at risk and possibly the world's largest collection of gall stones. On the edge come from a sawn-off elephant, who served as an umbrella stand, and an armadillo that was hanging by his death as a lampshade in a Berlin apartment.

The people behind these objects, combines a deep passion: they are scientists and amateur researchers who collect high cost and time often remarkable collections. At the end of their life or their career, they are faced with the question of what to do with their treasure.


> in the original article in the Süddeutsche Zeitung, 16:10:10 read.

comment by Reinhold Leinfelder:

The article by Hubert Filser also discusses the importance of scientific collections. Auc he mentioned that the scientific value of objects reveals some later date, perhaps when new methods were developed. He also writes " Therefore, it is wise to preserve the treasures." We are a kind of guardian of the information in the future can still be valuable, "said Nobel laureate Blumberg. Who knows what disease it once through his blood- can study collection? "

Filser includes the following chapters of gallstone-collection of the Berlin Medical Historical Museum:" And therefore one should appreciate the special collection of Navena Widulin: The taxidermist in the Medical-Historical Museum of the Charité collects gallstones for 13 years, most remarkable objects from the human body that looks even like caramel candy, sometimes shimmering, sometimes smooth, are sometimes small and pebbly, or size of a potato. In transparent containers, it does away with any gall stone that gets it. "I think it's fascinating," she says. "My boss is thrilled. "

stand in long rows, the containers are stacked, one could hold the place for a camp exquisite sweets. Maybe it's due to the visual quality that all people who hear of the gall-stone-collection Navena Widulin support by sending in their gall stones from operations. Meanwhile, the world has a museum that has a large gallstone collection. What we should do with it scientifically, no one knows for sure. "


The very last sentence, which also includes the article, the author seems not (yet) does not really scientific applications to be seen. How about the following idea, although I am not a doctor: if all patient data for each of gallstones in science were available, would have the gall stones in my opinion just a wonderful research resource. There are different types of gallstones, according to different triggers. Moreover, one could get the shares of the "risk factors" for gallstones probably a better handle. The so-5F-risk factors for gallstones are at least according to Wikipedia: female, fertile, forty fat, fair, family. This example thus shows once again how important the role of metadata about the collection of objects. Only order to obtain scientific value.
