Azote

The term azote and symbol Az are still retained by the French chemists. ❋ William McPherson (N/A)

What has been absorbed is the vital air, and what remains, the azote, which is incapable of supporting flame. ❋ Thomas Garnett (1784)

On plunging a combustible body into the remaining air, it is instantly extinguished; an animal in the same situation is immediately deprived of life: from this latter circumstance this air has been called azote, or azotic gas. ❋ Thomas Garnett (1784)

[3] The other, from its property of destroying life, is called azote, and forms of course the remaining three fourths of the atmosphere. ❋ Thomas Garnett (1784)

Another part of the atmosphere, which is called azote, is perpetually set at liberty from animal and vegetable bodies by putrefaction or combustion, from many springs of water, from volatile alcali, and probably from fixed alcali, of which there is an exhaustless source in the water of the ocean. ❋ Erasmus Darwin (1766)

The common air of the atmosphere appears by the analysis of Dr. Priestley and other philosophers to consist of about three parts of an elastic fluid unfit for respiration or combustion, called azote by the French school, and about one fourth of pure vital air fit for the support of animal life and of combustion, called oxygene. ❋ Erasmus Darwin (1766)

The French chemist Antoine Laurent Lavoisier named nitrogen azote, meaning "without life." ❋ Unknown (2009)

A man under the stress of a feeling which by its intensity has become a monomania, often finds himself in the frame of mind to which opium, hasheesh, or the protoxyde of azote might have brought him. ❋ Unknown (2007)

It is the uniform effect of culture on the human mind, not to shake our faith in the stability of particular phenomena, as of heat, water, azote; but to lead us to regard nature as a phenomenon, not a substance; to attribute necessary existence to spirit; to esteem nature as an accident and an effect. ❋ Unknown (2006)

When you dehydrate by alcohol 100 grammes of the embryo of wheat, obtained by the same means as the membrane (a process indicated later on), this embryo, treated with ether, produces 20 grammes of oils composed elementarily of hydrogen, oxygen, carbon, azote, sulphur, and phosphorus. ❋ Various (N/A)

This is a consideration not to be passed over lightly; assuredly the gluten of the center contains as much azote as the gluten of the circumference, but it must not be admitted in a general way that the alimentary power of ❋ Various (N/A)

During experiments with the inhaling of protoxyde of azote, H. Davy said that normal consciousness disappeared, and was followed by a wonderful power of recalling past events. ❋ Th. Pascal (N/A)

If it is not admitted that pure matter is a man in a state of torpor, it must be admitted that man is a _mélange_ of carbon, oxygen, hydrogen, azote, phosphorus -- a _mélange_ which has been brought little by little to perfection. ❋ Ernest Naville (N/A)

Never, since man came into this atmosphere of oxygen and azote, was there anything like the condition of the young American of the nineteenth century. ❋ Various (N/A)
