Johann Friedrich Cartheuser was a German physician and naturalist. In 1740 he was appointed professor of chemistry, pharmacy and materia medica at the University of Frankfurt and der Oder, and shortly afterward to the chair of anatomy and botany. He was also appointed rector of the University, and continued to hold his appointments till his death. His chief merit consists in having introduced the method of submitting the various substances of materia mediaca to a strict ordeal of chemical analysis. He analyzed a great number of plants and other substances, and gave an exact account of the elements which create their composition.  COLN1772FNOA-variant
