The Swiss anatomist Albert von Kölliker (1817-1905) initially studied mitochondria in muscle in 1857, while studying cells microscopically. Other researchers noted the structures in the 1840's but they were first labeled by Richard Altmann(1852-1900)who called them bioblasts. The name mitochondria was coined by Carl Benda in 1898.
