Following the death of his father, the family moved to [[Gothenburg]] where he went to school, and after graduation at the local "Realgymnasium" in [[1921]], he studied at the [[Uppsala University|University of Uppsala]], specializing in [[chemistry]]. He became research assistant in [[Theodor Svedberg|The Svedberg's]] laboratory in [[1925]] and obtained his doctor's degree in 1930 on the moving-boundary method of studying the [[electrophoresis]] of [[proteins]]. From then to 1935 he published a number of papers on [[diffusion]] and [[adsorption]] in naturally occurring base-exchanging [[zeolites]], and these studies were continued during a year's visit to [[Hugh Stott Taylor|H.S. Taylor]]'s laboratory in [[Princeton University|Princeton]] with support of a [[Rockefeller Foundation Fellowship]]. On his return to Uppsala he resumed his interest in proteins, and the application of physical methods to biochemical problems. This led to a much-improved method of electrophoretic analysis which he refined in subsequent years. Tiselius took an active part in the reorganization of scientific research in Sweden in the years following [[World War II]], and was President of the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry 1951-1955. He was married, with two children. He died of a heart attack 29 October 1971 in [[Uppsala]]. ==References== *{{cite journal | author = R. A. Kekwick; Kai O.
