Bazhin contributed initially to Russkoye Slovo, then Delo (where he also published numerous book reviews and was for a while the literary section editor), and later Zhensky Vestnik, Russkoye Bogatstvo, Nablyudatel, Severny Vestnik and Iskra. In each of these he published numerous lengthy novels, arguably the best-known of which, Istoria odnogo tovarishchestva (История одного товарищества, "The History of One People's Society"), stretched over seven issues of Delo in 1869. Bazhin belonged to the school of harsh social realism usually associated in Russia with the likes of Dmitry Pisarev and Nikolai Chernyshevsky, whose Rakhmetov apparently served as a blueprint for Bazhin's character Stepan Rulyov, who features in several of his earlier novels and stories. The tone of Bazhin's later work radically changed from optimism to dejection and he turned to a completely different type of hero: a disillusioned raznochinets, hard done by harsh Russian reality. Unusually for such a prolific writer, Bazhin refused to talk or write about himself; therefore, very little is known about his personal life. "The facts of my biography are interesting to nobody and are most certainly unworthy," he replied famously in a letter to Semyon Vengerov, who was working at the time upon this author's entry for the Brockhaus and Efron Encyclopedic Dictionary. Bazhin was married to Serafima Bazhina, the children's writer and translator.

Nikolai Petrovich Arkharov (Russian: Николай Петрович Архаров) (7 May 1740 – January 1814) was a Russian police chief best known for having given his name to the Russian term "arkharovtsy", an ironic appellation of policemen. Nikolai Arkharov came from a noble family. In 1754 he was enrolled at the Guards, in 1756 started the service as soldier of the Preobrazhensky regiment and in 1761 was promoted to officer. His rising began after the mission of 1771 into Moscow, enveloped by the disastrous epidemic of plague and mutiny (known as the Plague Riot), under the direction of Count Grigori Orlov. Count Orlov arrived to Moscow on 26 September 1771 with numerous doctors and four Guards regiments. Arkharov proved himself as energetic and executive officer. Apparently, with the aid of Orlov, with whom he was familiar earlier, Arkharov was transferred into the police with the rank of colonel. After the successfully conducted inquest of the case of Yemelyan Pugachev Arkharov was appointed in 1775 the Chief of police in Moscow. Here he distinguished himself as one of the best detective of that time. His subordinates were called by people "arkharovtsy" - this word in the course of time became nominal. Catherine II sometimes invited Arkharov into Petersburg for the investigation of serious thefts. On 28 July 1777 he became major general, in 1779 received the Order of St. Anna of the 1st degree and from 1782, he was a Moscow governor. In 1783 Arkharov was elevated into general-ensign, in 1785 became the general-governor of Tver and Novgorod. From 1790 he was also the director of the water communications and significantly contributed to the canal-building in his region. From 1795 to 1796 he was General Governor of St Petersburg. Upon his accession to the throne, Emperor Paul I awarded Arkharov the Order of Alexander Nevsky, promoted him to full general and appointed him the second general governor of St Petersburg (the first was Grand Prince Alexandr Pavlovich). On 15 June 1797 Arkharov was dismissed and was exiled into Tambov governorate without the right to visit both the capitals. This right was returned to him in the next reign. Nikolai Arkharov died and buried in his estate Rasskazovo near Tambov.

Nikolai Grigoryevich Cholodny (Russian: Никола́й Григо́рьевич Холо́дный; 22 June 1882 – 4 May 1953) was an influential microbiologist who worked at the University of Kiev, Ukraine in the USSR during the 1930s. He is known for the Cholodny–Went model, which he developed independently with Frits Warmolt Went of the California Institute of Technology.Despite being associated with the same theory, the two men never actually met. Cholodny worked in the A.V. Fomin Botanical Garden, attached to the University of Kiev.He was one of the pioneers of the concept that microbes adhere to surfaces, using the technique of first placing glass slides in earth for a measured time period,then using a microscope to examine the slides.The Prokaryote Leptothrix cholodnii is named after him. In 1927 Cholodny proposed that the cells of the coleoptile are first polarized under the influence of uneven exposure to light, so growth hormone can diffuse more rapidly towards the side in the shade than in any other direction.Went reached the same conclusion in 1928, and the two scientists' names have been attached to the controversial Cholodny-Went theory.
