On June 10, 1896, Cralle applied for a patent on his invention. He was awarded patent 576,395 on 2 February 1897. [4] The patented "Ice Cream Mold and Disher," was an ice cream scoop with a built-in scraper to allow for one-handed operation. [5] [6] Alfred's functional design is reflected in modern ice cream scoops. [7]
Most ice cream scoops are hemispherical-shaped and contain a mechanical device to force the ice cream out of the scoop. The ice cream scoop was invented by African-American Alfred L. Cralle who was issued U.S. patent #576,395 on February 2, 1897. [58] 1897 Charcoal briquette
The microscope in this lab was a gift from his wife. [65] Despite these limitations, Koch ran an experiment by injecting mice with anthrax infected blood. He also injected mice with blood from healthy livestock. The mice who received the anthrax infected blood died the next day. [64]
c.1622: Drebbel presents his invention in Rome. 1624: Galileo improves on a compound microscope he sees in Rome and presents his occhiolino to Prince Federico Cesi, founder of the Accademia dei Lincei (in English, The Linceans). 1625: Francesco Stelluti and Federico Cesi publish Apiarium, the first account of observations using a compound ...
Two experiments in 1924 laid the groundwork to fill in this gap. By measuring the capacitance of erythrocyte solutions Fricke determined that the cell membrane was 3.3 nm thick. [7] Although the results of this experiment were accurate, Fricke misinterpreted the data to mean that the cell membrane is a single molecular layer.
1021 – The astronomer, physicist and mathematician Ibn al-Haytham combines observations, experiments and rational arguments in his Book of Optics. c. 1025 – The scholar al-Biruni develops experimental methods for mineralogy and mechanics, and conducts elaborate experiments related to astronomical phenomena.

The optical microscope, also referred to as a light microscope, is a type of microscope that commonly uses visible light and a system of lenses to generate magnified images of small objects. Optical microscopes are the oldest design of microscope and were possibly invented in their present compound form in the 17th century.
