| The Miller–Urey experiment (or Miller experiment) was a chemical experiment that simulated the conditions thought at the time (1952) to be present on the early Earth and tested the chemical origin of life under those conditions. The experiment at the time supported Alexander Oparin's and J. B. S. Haldane's hypothesis that putative conditions on the primitive Earth favoured chemical reactions that synthesized more complex organic compounds from simpler inorganic precursors. Considered to be the classic experiment investigating abiogenesis, it was performed in 1952 by Stanley Miller, supervised by Harold Urey at the University of Chicago, and published the following year. | | The Miller–Urey experiment (or Miller experiment) was a chemical experiment that simulated the conditions thought at the time (1952) to be present on the early Earth and tested the chemical origin of life under those conditions.

− | More recent experiments by chemists Jeffrey Bada, one of Miller's graduate students, and Jim Cleaves at [[Scripps Institution of Oceanography]] of the [[University of California, San Diego]] were similar to those performed by Miller. However, Bada noted that in current models of early Earth conditions, carbon dioxide and [[nitrogen]] (N<sub>2</sub>) create [[nitrite]]s, which destroy amino acids as fast as they form. <!--However, the early Earth may have had significant amounts of iron and [[carbonate minerals]] able to neutralize the effects of the nitrites.{{Citation needed|date=January 2016}} --> <!-- Please find a scientific paper that makes this statement before removing the tag -- and then the remark may be visible again --> When Bada performed the Miller-type experiment with the addition of iron and carbonate minerals, the products were rich in amino acids. This suggests the origin of significant amounts of amino acids may have occurred on Earth even with an atmosphere containing carbon dioxide and nitrogen.<ref name=Fox>{{Cite news |last=Fox |first=Douglas |date=2007-03-28 |title=Primordial Soup's On: Scientists Repeat Evolution's Most Famous Experiment |periodical=Scientific American |series=History of Science |publisher=Scientific American Inc. |url=http://www.sciam.com/article.cfm?id=primordial-soup-urey-miller-evolution-experiment-repeated |accessdate=2008-07-09 }}<br>{{Cite journal | last1 = Cleaves | first1 = H.

− | In 2008, a group of scientists examined 11 vials left over from Miller's experiments of the early 1950s. In addition to the classic experiment, reminiscent of Charles Darwin's envisioned "warm little pond", Miller had also performed more experiments, including one with conditions similar to those of volcanic eruptions. This experiment had a nozzle spraying a jet of steam at the spark discharge. By using high-performance liquid chromatography and mass spectrometry, the group found more organic molecules than Miller had. They found that the volcano-like experiment had produced the most organic molecules, 22 amino acids, 5 amines and many hydroxylated molecules, which could have been formed by hydroxyl radicals produced by the electrified steam. The group suggested that volcanic island systems became rich in organic molecules in this way, and that the presence of carbonyl sulfide there could have helped these molecules form peptides.

− | [[Jeffrey Bada]], himself Miller's student, inherited the original equipment from the experiment when Miller died in 2007. Based on sealed vials from the original experiment, scientists have been able to show that although successful, Miller was never able to find out, with the equipment available to him, the full extent of the experiment's success. Later researchers have been able to isolate even more different amino acids, 25 altogether. Bada has estimated that more accurate measurements could easily bring out 30 or 40 more amino acids in very low concentrations, but the researchers have since discontinued the testing. Miller's experiment was therefore a remarkable success at synthesizing complex organic molecules from simpler chemicals, considering that all known life uses just 20 different amino acids.<ref name="BBC">{{cite web |website=BBC Four |url=http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b00mbvfh |title=The Spark of Life |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20101113011054/http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b00mbvfh |archive-date=2010-11-13 |postscript=.

− | 杰弗里·巴达(Jeffrey Bada)是米勒的学生,他在2007年米勒去世时继承了这项实验的原始设备。根据最初实验中的密封小瓶,科学家们已经能够证明,虽然米勒成功了,但在现有设备的情况下,米勒始终无法发现实验成功的全部程度。后来的研究人员已经能够分离出更多不同的氨基酸,总共25种。Bada估计,更精确的测量可以很容易地在非常低的浓度下提取出30或40种氨基酸,但是研究人员已经停止了这项测试。考虑到所有已知生命只使用20种不同的氨基酸,米勒的实验因此在从较简单的化学物质合成复杂有机分子方面取得了显著成功。
