Horacio Jaime Damianovich Cuyas, Argentine chemist (Buenos Aires 11 January 1883 – Buenos Aires 26 November 1959) From Serbian, Greek and Spanish descent ACHIEVEMENTS
Performed important studies on chemistry of noble gases being invited by Societe Chimique de France to expose his researches in 1937
One of the first in the world to obtain derivatives of noble gases Studied in detail the adsorption of helium on metal surfaces (1920-40) Made significant contribution to the understanding of helides Obtained the first stable compounds of helium (1937)
Conceived a metabolimeter
Metabolimetre à circuit ouvert pour usage clinique. Compt. Rend. Hebd. Soc. Biol. 88, 1923 Developed Damianovich-Catan method
