This subject was tackled by the belgian biochemist M. FLORKIN (1944)
While this technical work seems rather specialized, it has been important in showing the “unity in diversity”in the general organization of life in animals.
Florkin also considered, in his former “Introduction a la Biochimie Générale”, biochemistry's relations with biosphere and the consequent interrelations of living beings to the biospherical cycles .
This research is probably still more significant today, after the deep alterations of the biosphere by man's activities.
