title: [Carl Christian Wilhelm Juch (1772-1821). His biography and his scientific work].
abstract: This article introduces Carl Christian Wilhelm Juch, Pharmacist, Doctor and Chemist, who, now almost forgotten, was well known in his time for his numerous works and essays on Natural Science. Some new biographic findings are disclosed. Juch's work covers a series of writings on Natural Science, in which he put great emphasis on economic and technological themes. His translation of and commentary on the Pharmacopoea Borussica 1805 provided an important contribution to pharmacy. In 1801 Juch was appointed Professor of Medicine and Chemistry at the University of Altdorf. In his position as University Professor he went 1805 to the Munic Lyceum and in 1808 to the Augsburg Realinstitut in order to teach Chemistry, Natural History and Dietetics. In 1816/17 he retired due to poor health. Juch died in Augsburg in 1821 at the age of forty-eight.
