## Ọgwụgwọ ekpenta
Na Mahadum Hawaii, Ball nyochara kemịkalụ etemeete na ụkpụrụ arụ ọrụ nke *Piper methysticum* (kava) maka tesis nna ya ukwu.  N'ihi ọrụ a, Dr. Harry T. Hollmann kpọtụụrụ ya na Ụlọ Ọgwụ Kalihi dị na Hawaii, bụ́ onye chọrọ onye inyeaka maka nchọpụta ya n'ịgwọ ọrịa ekpenta . 

N'oge ahụ, ekpenta ma ọ bụ ọrịa Hansen bụ ọrịa a na-akparị nke ukwuu nke na-enwekwaghị ohere mgbake. A chụpụrụ ndị a chọpụtara na ha nwere ekpenta n’agha gaa n’agwaetiti Molokai nke Hawaii na-atụ anya na ha ga-anwụ n’ebe ahụ.   Ngwọta kachasị mma dịnụ bụ mmanụ chaulmoogra, sitere na mkpụrụ osisi *Hydnocarpus wightianus* sitere na mpaghara mpaghara India, bụ nke ejirila ọgwụ eme ihe site na mmalite afọ 1300. Ma ọgwụgwọ ahụ adịchaghị irè, na usoro ọ bụla nke ngwa nwere nsogbu. Ọ dị nhịahụ nke ukwuu ka a na-eji ya eme ihe nke ọma, yana dị ka ịgbanye nhịahụ nhịahụ nke mmanụ ahụ mere ka ọ daa n'okpuru akpụkpọ ahụ wee ghọọ ọnya kama ịmịnye ya. Ọnya ndị a malitere n'ahịrị zuru oke wee mee ka ọ dị "dị ka a ga-asị na ejiri afụ dochie akpụkpọ ahụ onye ọrịa".  Ịtinye mmanụ ahụ adịghị irè ma n'ihi na ọ nwere uto na-adịghị mma nke na-emekarị ka ndị ọrịa na-agbọpụta ya. 

Mgbe ọ dị afọ iri abụo na atọ, Ball mepụtara usoro iji mee ka mmanụ ahụ sie ike ma nwee ike ịmịnye ya n'ahụ. Usoro ya gụnyere ikewapụ ogige ester na mmanụ ahụ na iji kemịkal gbanwee ha, na-emepụta ihe na-ejigide ihe ndị na-eme ka mmanụ ahụ na-agwọ ọrịa ma na-amịnye ahụ ya mgbe a na-agba ya.  N'ụzọ dị mwute, n'ihi ọnwụ ya na-egbu oge, Ball enweghị ike ibipụta nchọpụta mgbanwe ya.  Arthur L. Dean, onye na-ahụ maka kemist ma mesịa bụrụ onye isi oche nke Mahadum Hawaii, zuru ọrụ ya, bipụta nchoputa ahụ, wee malite iwepụta nnukwu chaulmoogra nke injectable.  Dean  n'enyeghị otuto bọọlụ wee kpọọ usoro ahụ aha ya. N'afọ 1920, otu dibia bekee kọrọ na *Journal of the American Medical Association* na ndị ụlọ ọrụ nyocha ahụike chụpụrụ ndị ọrịa 78 n'ụlọ ọgwụ Kalihi ka ha gwọchara ha ntụtụ nke mmanụ chaulmoogra gbanwere nke Ball.    Na usoro Ball, ethyl esters nke fatty acids achọtara na mmanụ chaulmoogra ka akwadoro ka ọ bụrụ ụdị dabara adaba maka ịgba ntụtụ na nnabata n'ime mgbasa.  Ester ethyl dịpụrụ adịpụ nọgidere bụrụ ọgwụgwọ kachasị mma maka ekpenta ruo mgbe e mepụtara ọgwụ sulfonamide n'afọ 1940s. 

Ọ bụghị ruo ọtụtụ afọ ka Hollmann nwụsịrị ka ọ nwara imezi ikpe na-ezighị ezi a. O bipụtara akwụkwọ n'afọ 1922 na-enye Ball otuto, na-akpọ ụdị mmanụ a na-agbanye mmanụ ahụ "Ụzọ bọọlụ."  N'ụzọ dị mwute, ọ ka nọgidere na-echefu na ndekọ sayensị.  N'afọ nke mgbe 1970, Kathryn Takara na Stanley Ali, ndị prọfesọ na Mahadum Hawaii, nyochara ebe a na-edebe ihe ndekọ iji chọta nyocha Ball. Mgbe ọtụtụ iri afọ gasịrị, ha nwere ike weta mbọ ya na ihe ndị ọ rụpụtara, na-enye ya otuto ọ nwetara.

## Ọnwụ na nnabata
Ball nwụrụ na Disemba 31, 1916, mgbe ọ dị afọ 24. Ọ rịa ọrịa n'oge nyocha ya wee laghachi Seattle maka ọgwụgwọ ọnwa ole na ole tupu ọnwụ ya.
