SIGNIFICANCE OF THE CHEMOTON THEORY

The major significance of the chemoton theory consists naturally in the attitude creating a unified, common scientific background for chemical and biological phenomena, and in the step by step mode in which it provides a solid foundation for them by using philosophical, scientific and mathematical means. It is also significant that, in addition to creating mechanical and electric machineries, it makes also possible to go a third way, to design fluid (chemical) machineries. Finally, it is also of outstanding importance that it defines accurately the borderline between chemistry and biology, i.e. it separates exactly the living from the non-living by creating and defining also mathematically the minimum system of life, the chemoton .

Moreover, the theory has also partial results in fields of both chemistry and biology being very significant per se, as they solve or make quantitative   problems of chemistry or biology having existed in science for centuries.
