"His research on lymphatic vessels was recognized by the medical community, and he received awards at universal exhibitions in Paris and Vienna as anatomical preparations....In 1853, he discovered hemin (chlorohemine, Teichmann crystals): the crystalline form of the blood dye.

Teichmann's research has opened the way for all subsequent chemical studies on hemoglobin." (Submitted on June 8, 2018.)
