N 1898—when the Curies discovered radium—the name of Merck was firmly established in the world of chemistry. Laboratory chemists relied on the quality of Merck products and o n technical aids supplied by the company. N o w , fifty years later—when science has progressed to the synthesis of radioactive isotopes—Merck chemicals reflect an impressive background of experience and skill. Highly perfected manufacturing and control methods, created o r utilized by Merck, assure unquestioned uniform purity. That is why more and more chemists specify MERCK LABORATORY CHEMICALS.
