The research carried out in recent years, in which Windaus himself has also played a leading part, has revealed the very important fact that, on being irradiated with ultraviolet light, this ergosterol assumes exactly the same properties as the antirachitic vitamin, "vitamin D", i.e. it will cure rachitis.

Also, in view of the minute quantity of material available, I want to draw your attention to the valuable information on molecular structure obtained by means of micro-analysis, through the work of Adolf Windaus on cymarin and cholesterol, and Wieland's work on the decomposition of bile acids, where micro-analysis proved its value. From Wordnik.com. [Fritz Pregl - Nobel Lecture] Reference
The award to Wieland was primarily for his investigations of bile acids, whereas Windaus was recognized mainly for his work on cholesterol and his demonstration of the steroid nature of vitamin D. Wieland had already in 1912, before his prize-winning work, formulated a theory for biological oxidation, according to which removal of hydrogen (dehydrogenation) rather than reaction with oxygen is the dominating process.
