亚瑟·盖尔斯敦(英語:Arthur W. Galston,1920年-2008年)是一位美国植物学家和生物伦理学家。他在还是个研究生时,发现了一种促进大豆落叶的化学物质TIBA(2,3,5-三碘苯甲酸)。在该物质的基础上,美军的生物武器专家制造了曾在越战中大规模使用的橙剂。自1965年,盖尔斯敦开始游说科学界和政府部门,并促使了美国国防部研究橙剂对人类的毒性,最终使尼克松总统于1970年禁止了橙剂的使用。盖尔斯敦曾多次前往越南和中国,他是第一批受邀请来到中华人民共和国的美国科学家。1971年盖尔斯敦在上海受到周恩来总理的接见。 rdf:langString
Arthur W. Galston (April 21, 1920 – June 15, 2008) was an American plant physiologist and bioethicist. As a plant biologist, Galston studied plant hormones and the effects of light on plant development, particularly phototropism. He identified riboflavin and other flavins as the photoreceptors for phototropism, the bending of plants toward light, challenging the prevailing view that carotenoids were responsible. rdf:langString

As a plant biologist, Galston studied plant hormones and the effects of light on plant development, particularly phototropism. He identified riboflavin and other flavins as the photoreceptors for phototropism, the bending of plants toward light, challenging the prevailing view that carotenoids were responsible. As a graduate student in 1943, Galston studied the use of 2,3,5- (TIBA) to encourage the flowering of soybeans, and noted that high levels had a defoliant effect. The British and U.S. military later developed TIBA into Agent Orange which was employed extensively in Malaya and Vietnam. Galston became a bioethicist, and spoke out against such uses of science. As chairman of Yale's botany department, Galston's ethical objections led President Nixon to end the use of Agent Orange.
