Fabrizio Bartoletti

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Fabricio Bartoletti , also Fabricio, (born August 27, 1576 in Bologna , † May 30, 1630 in Lendinara ) was an Italian doctor and chemist. The name was also named Bartholet, Bartoleto, Bertoletti, Bartholdi, Bartholetus u. a. written.

Life

Bartoletti studied philosophy and medicine in Bologna with a doctorate (Laurea) in philosophy and medicine in 1613 and was then logic professor until 1616 and from 1616 professor of surgery and anatomy in Bologna. From 1626 he was at the invitation of Duke Ferdinando Gonzaga in Mantua , where he founded an anatomy school. He left Mantua in 1630 because of the plague and died on the journey in Lendinara.

His main work Antidotarium Chimico-Dogmaticum dealt critically with alchemical ideas (connection with planets, mercury-sulfur-salt theory by Paracelsus ). He isolated milk sugar from milk (around 1615), which he called manna seu nitrum seri lactus (in his Encyclopaedia hermetico dogmatica , Bologna 1st edition 1615, also 1619 and 1621). M. Kidney stone could not find the entry (and attributes the first mention of Bartoletti as the discoverer of milk sugar to Michael Ettmüller , followed by Johann Friedrich Gmelin and others).

Other works by him are Anatomica humani microcosmi descriptio per theses disposita (Bologna 1619), De hydrope pulmonum (1629), Methodus in dyspnaeam, seu de respirationibus, libri quatuor (1633).
