Detlev Kayser

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Detlev Kayser (* 1931 in Dresden ) is a German biochemist.

Kayser studied chemistry in Berlin from 1951 to 1958 and received his doctorate under Otto Warburg , where he was an assistant at the Max Planck Institute for Cell Physiology in Berlin-Dahlem until 1966 . With Warburg he investigated, among other things, the effect of X-rays on the metabolism and growth of lactic acid bacteria and carried out experiments at the end of the 1950s that showed the influence of breathing on photosynthesis. In the mid-1960s, as a colleague of Warburg, he showed that cancer cells prefer an anaerobic environment. From 1977 to 1982 he was at the Federal Environment Agency in Berlin and later Professor and Director at the Federal Office for Consumer Health Protection and Veterinary Medicine (BgVV) in Berlin.

At the BgVV, together with Eva Schlede , he developed methods to minimize the consumption of laboratory animals.

In 1963 he received the Paul Ehrlich and Ludwig Darmstaedter Prize .
