The original articles up through 2008 were basically correct under the name 'Schutze reagent'. Then the name was incorrectly changed to Schultze, who did not invent Schutze reagent, but Max did invent Schultze's reagent. Schultze's Reagent is:
[Quote] Schulze's reagent [′shu̇lt·səz rē‚ā·jənt] (analytical chemistry) An oxidizing mixture consisting of a saturated aqueous solution of KCIO3and varying amounts of concentrated HNO3; commonly used in palynologic macerations.

I find no documentation on who created Schutze reagent (Iodine pentoxide on granular silica gel), except we presume his surname is indeed Schutze. We and/or our customers use both Schutze and Schultze's reagents in the cross discipline industry I work in. 173.15.66.199 (talk) 17:53, 23 August 2010 (UTC)C. Rutz
