Carl Theodor Ludwig Neubauer , sometimes also Karl Neubauer , (born October 26, 1830 in Lüchow , † June 2, 1879 in Wiesbaden ) was a German chemist.

Neubauer attended high school in Salzwedel and then went on to become a pharmacist. In 1852 he won the first prize of the Hagen Buchholz Foundation and the following year he became an assistant to Carl Remigius Fresenius in Wiesbaden at his institute. In 1862 he became a lecturer there, which he remained until his death. In 1855 he received his doctorate in Göttingen and taught in 1855 until its closure in 1876 at the Agricultural Institute in Göttingen, from 1864 as a professor. From 1868 he was head of the newly founded research institute for agricultural chemistry and viticulture in Wiesbaden.

He was also commissioned by Nassau to examine coins and was a pharmacy auditor as well as a member of the examination board for doctors and pharmacists.

He dealt with analytical chemistry and physiological chemistry (biochemistry) and was considered an expert in the chemistry of wine. He contributed to the Fresenius Journal for Analytical Chemistry as a reporter on scientific advances. His urinalysis textbook was also translated into English, Russian and French and was considered a standard work.
