Описание:
In 1820, the French chemists Joseph Pelletier and Jean Biename Caventou isolated quinine from cinchona bark. Quinine quickly became a favored therapy for intermittent fever throughout the world. Quinine remains an important and effective malaria treatment nearly worldwide to the present day, despite sporadic observations of quinine resistance.
