Re: Tests for Fungal Infection

Keep your eyes on Correlogic, a company developing tests for the detection of

all kinds of diseases. A funny thing happened to them in 2002 when they came out

with a test for the early detection of ovarian cancer (I was in the original

study). They were stopped in their tracks by unethical workers and conflicts of

interest at the FDA and the NIH. It's because if you find and treat all cancers

early you would cut the revenue streams of chemotherapy drugs and the need for

most screening radiological exams.

Remember this technology can be used to detect patterns for all disease states

with just a drop of blood. I have been writing to newspapers, President Obama,

Congress and anyone who will listen trying to get this technology on the market.

Here's an excerpt on their test for detecting mold spores.

" The June 2006 issue of the peer-reviewed journal, Biomolecular Engineering,

published " Novel technology for rapid species-specific detection of Bacillus

spores " . Correlogic's Dr. Mansfield, Dr. Ping Yip and Dr. Ben Hitt, and

colleagues from the Stark Draper Laboratory and Tufts University School

of Medicine are authors of this paper. Using pyrolysis-micromachined

differential mobility spectrometry (DMS) and Correlogic's genetic algorithms to

provide a fingerprint that identifies each species, researchers were able to

distinguish among bacillus species closely related to Bacillus anthracis (the

causative agent in anthrax). Results showed over 90 percent accuracy with a

sensitivity of detection of 5,000 spores, significantly below the median

infectious dose of 8,000 to 10,000 spores and well below the median lethal dose

of ~62,000 spores. Few existing rapid detection techniques detect below 100,000

spores.

The powerful combination of the DMS machine and Correlogic's technology shows

promise for portable, near-real-time accurate detection of spores. In a more

generalized setting, it may also be possible to detect and identify other

harmful bacteria such as the Clostridia, which cause tetanus, diarrhea, botulism

and food poisoning. "

Don't hold your breath waiting for the below company which is coming up with

something to help out America's sick:

The science institutes supported by tax dollars which we should be able to look

to for unbiased research have been corrupted like all of government by money

sadly. I developed severe insomnia when a young woman so badly that I couldn't

function well in a very good job I had just gotten a big promotion in. Faced

with not being able to work, I looked into everything to solve and eventually

found a pioneering lab in Chicago, which was where I was living, that was

researching L-tryptophan as a sleep aid, a simple amino acid found in milk.

Unfortunately L-tryptophan was shortly after banned by the FDA, they said due to

a " bad batch " which was contaminated with " something " , and ban was NEVER lifted,

to this very day. You can only buy it overseas. The right to buy things

overseas now was a battle won by people who lobbied Congress to help AIDS

patience to get anything they wished to try since they faced death. People have

gotten around it by taking the hormone Melatonin itself which wasn't available

at the time. Bann on L-typtophan happend like 25 years ago and still in place,

even though it was due to 'bad batch'. Just a simple 'amino acid' (a protein

essential to life) banned to come into this country. It is the only amino acid

not legal to be sold in the US. It so happens timing was coincided to the drug

" Xanax " just coming out, which helped sleep and anxiety, sooo...you can draw

your own conclusions.
