Kinichiro Sakaguchi

Kinichiro Sakaguchi is a biology topic covered in the lgStudy science library. This page brings together a partial reference excerpt, illustrations, worked examples, real-world applications and a short study plan, so you can understand Kinichiro Sakaguchi rather than just read about it. In short: Kinichiro Sakaguchi (坂口謹一郎, Sakaguchi Kin'ichirō; November 17, 1897 – December 9, 1994) was a Japanese agricultural chemist and microbiologist. He was born in Niigata prefecture.

Key takeaways

Kinichiro Sakaguchi belongs to biology; place it in that map before memorising details.
Learn the definition first, then one example that makes the definition concrete.
Connect Kinichiro Sakaguchi to a quantity you can measure, compute or draw — that is where exam questions come from.
Reproduce the core statement of Kinichiro Sakaguchi from memory before moving on to harder problems.

Reference excerpt

Kinichiro Sakaguchi (坂口謹一郎, Sakaguchi Kin'ichirō; November 17, 1897 – December 9, 1994) was a Japanese agricultural chemist and microbiologist. He was born in Niigata prefecture. He is the inventor of the Sakaguchi flask, a round-bottom long-neck shake flask. In Jōetsu, Niigata, a sake museum has a part of its exhibition dedicated to him.

Worked examples

Example 1 — a first encounter with Kinichiro Sakaguchi

Start with the simplest possible case. Write down what Kinichiro Sakaguchi claims or describes in one sentence, then invent the smallest concrete situation in which that sentence is true. In biology, the smallest case is usually a single object, a single equation or a single measurement. Check that every symbol or term in your sentence has a meaning in that case.

Example 2 — changing one variable

Take the situation from Example 1 and change exactly one quantity: double it, halve it, or set it to zero. Predict what should happen to Kinichiro Sakaguchi before you calculate. Comparing your prediction with the result is the fastest way to find out whether you understand the idea or only the words.

Example 3 — an exam-style question

Typical questions about Kinichiro Sakaguchi ask you to (a) state it precisely, (b) apply it to given data, and (c) explain a limitation. Practise writing all three answers in under five minutes; the third part is what separates a full-mark answer from an average one.

Applications of Kinichiro Sakaguchi

In research: Kinichiro Sakaguchi appears in biology research whenever the underlying quantities have to be modelled precisely. Papers usually cite it as a starting assumption and then explore where it breaks down.
In technology and industry: Engineering practice reuses Kinichiro Sakaguchi in design rules, simulations and safety margins. Knowing the idea lets you read a specification sheet and understand why the numbers look the way they do.
In the classroom: Kinichiro Sakaguchi is common in secondary-school and first-year university syllabi. It links to neighbouring topics 1897 births, 1994 deaths, Japanese biologist stubs, so understanding it makes those chapters shorter.
In everyday life: Look for Kinichiro Sakaguchi outside the textbook — in sport, cooking, traffic, electronics or the sky above you. An example you found yourself is remembered far longer than one you were given.
