He was born exactly 120 years ago, and he died exactly 53 years ago. Walter Norman Haworth was born in Chorley, Lancashire, England on March 19, 1883. After he finished school at the age of fourteen, he took a job at the linoleum factory his father ran. Unhappy with such work, Haworth decided to attend university to study chemistry despite the extreme disapproval of his parents. He entered college in 1903 and by 1910 had the first of his two doctorates. With the exception of some chemical production he did for the military during the First World War, Haworth spent the bulk of his early career researching carbohydrates. His work made it possible to figure out the structure of carbohydrate molecules, and he found the structures of such important carbohydrates as glucose, lactose and sucrose. His techniques are still commonly used today. Haworth's methods allowed him to figure out the molecular structure of hexuronic acid better known as vitamin C, the substance needed to stave off scurvy. Once Haworth knew the structure of vitamin C, he was able to synthesize it in his laboratory. This was the first time anyone had artificially made a vitamin, and the discovery helped reduce the price of the important substance.

Norman Haworth - Biography Excerpt from: (http://www.nobel.se/chemistry/laureates/1937/haworth-bio.html) Walter Norman Haworth was born at Chorley, Lancashire, on March 19, 1883. He attended the local school until the age of fourteen when he joined his father, Thomas Haworth, to learn linoleum design and manufacture. His interest in chemistry was aroused through the use of dyestuffs in his work and his thirst for further knowledge led him to seek private tuition in Preston. This coaching enabled him to pass the entrance examination of the University of Manchester and in 1903 he entered the Chemistry Department as a pupil of W.H. Perkin, Junior. He graduated with first class honours in 1906 and after three years research he went, on a scholarship, to Wallach 's laboratory at Göttingen. He received his doctor's degree in 1910 and returned to Manchester to be awarded his D.Sc. degree in 1911 - these qualifications were gained in the minimum time possible. In 1911, Haworth took an appointment as a demonstrator at the

Wallach (1910). After several appointments at universities, he went to the University of Birmingham (1925). Much of his work was done on the structure of carbohydrates. He devised a form of representing the sugar molecules in what is still called "Haworth formulas". He received in 1937 the Nobel Prize for his work on carbohydrates and vitamin C.

(The term may refer either to the plant or the fiber, depending on context.) Sisal plants consist of a rosette of sword-shaped leaves about 1.5 to 2 meters tall. Young leaves may have a few minute teeth along their margins, but lose them as they mature. Sisals are sterile hybrids of uncertain origin; although shipped from the port of Sisal in Yucatán (thus the name), they do not actually grow in Yucatán, the plantations cultivating henequen Agave fourcroydes ) instead. Evidence of an indigenous cottage industry in Chiapas suggests it as the original location, possibly as a cross of Agave angustifolia and Agave kewensis In the 19th century , sisal cultivation (the plant being propagated via offsets), was spread worldwide, from Florida to the Caribbean islands and Brazil , as well as to countries in Africa (especially Tanzania ) and Asia . Sisal constitutes the majority of natural fiber production worldwide. Reference G. W. Lock
