Benzoic acid. -• CqH^, CO, OS.

Δοκιμάστηκε (proving) από το 1838 και χρησιμοποιήθηκε σε πολλές περιπτώσεις από τον Dr. Jeanes· ταξινομήθηκε και δημοσιεύτηκε από αυτόν με την πρόσθετη δοκιμασία του Dr. Lingen (1844), στα Transactions of American Institute, 1846, Τόμος I, σελίδες 13 έως 25· ο Chapmann δημοσίευσε μερικές θεραπείες το 1849 στο British Quarterly, Τόμος VII, σελίδα 390, χωρίς να αναφέρει τον Jeanes. Ο C.

Hering έλαβε μια δοκιμασία του Dr. Nusser το 1845 και δημοσίευσε μια μετάφραση της αναφοράς του Jeanes στο Amerikanische Arzneiprufungen του, προσθέτοντας όλες τις γνωστές τότε θεραπείες και τη δοκιμασία του Petroz από το 1847. Αυτό τιμήθηκε με επανέκδοση στο περίφημο Lehrbuch του Grauvogl, ο οποίος ήταν στην ιατρική μας σχολή ό,τι ήταν ο Schopenhauer στη φιλοσοφική σχολή του Kant. *
