Guest guest Posted September 13, 2008 Report Share Posted September 13, 2008 I've noticed that there is quite a bit of science on endotoxin exposure, and that endotoxin levels are quite high in water damaged buildings, particularly ones that involve flooding or similar. Why doesn't this get brought up more? Its obvious to me that it matters substantially. Clean dry buildings don't have these high endotoxin levels, water damaged buildings do. Recently, endotoxins have been found to dramatically increase cell and immune system damage caused by one family of mycotoxins (both macrocyclic and non-macrocyclic trichothecenes) and several other environmental toxicants through a process called priming. Others will I am sure follow. Why isn't this one of the things that gets brought up? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
