| The WIESNEGG establishments have been associated directly, between 1850 and 1900, to the works of the Laboratories of Research of the Quartier Latin to the number of which represents eminently the one of the Ecole normale supérieure . Specialized in the manufacture of scientific devices, they constructed indeed for great scientists of the time, in narrow link with them, the instruments of which they had need for their experiences. These scientists were called Henri HOLY-FATTENING POND DEVILLE, Louis PASTEUR, Charles CHAMBERLAND, the Dr ROUX, the Dr POUPINEL, the Dr FOX etc. | |
 |
On about ten scientific devices presented on the big table of the" Room of the Scientific Memories" of the Pasteur institute Museum, three at least leave the shops of the Rue des Ursulines and are signed WIESNEGG. Two have been used by Louis Pasteur in his laboratory of the Ecole normale supérieure of the street of Ulm and have probably been constructed on his indications: a very big and very beautiful "bouillon" made of red copper, and especially a sort of heavy" pressure cooker" made of iron and in copper, with a manometer, an adjustable security valve with a needle, and a thermometer. It is the first autoclave in the world, probably constructed in 1879. The third device is another autoclave, more small and more elegant constructs some years later for M. CHAMBERLAND. |
