The following text deals with the work of chemistry lecturers at consecutive Lviv universities and at the Technical University, during the years 1772-1945.

The text also discusses achievements of Lviv pharmacists: Teodor Torosiewicz, and especially Ignacy Łukasiewicz, who in 1853 isolated liquid paraffin from crude oil.
