Extractions: "Acrodynia, or Pink Disease killed a large number of infants. The disease was believed to be eliminated in the 50's when the use of teething powder containing mercury was stopped. However, not all victims immediately disappeared as was claimed. Some of them survived and still suffer from the effects of chronic mercury poisoning" "Bjorn Oppedal, DDS: "Since the balance of minerals in seriously ill amalgam-patients is usually severly disturbed, this condition can be aggravated by using chelators such as DMPS and DMSA and also from IV-C treatment. However, the methods are acceptable for patients who are not seriously ill." Instead he is a firm believer in the detoxificating power of algae…" als

EPIDEMIC OUTBREAK OF PINK DISEASE IN EUCALYPTUS PLANTATIONS IN HIGH RANGES IN KE
EPIDEMIC OUTBREAK OF pink disease IN EUCALYPTUS PLANTATIONS IN HIGH RANGES IN KERALA,INDIA. C. Mohanan 1. Keywords Epidemic, pink disease, eucalypts, India.

Extractions: Outbreak of pink disease in 16-month-old Eucalyptus grandis plantations (104 ha) in high ranges in Kerala, is of great concern as the species was earlier considered to be tolerant to pink disease. The disease caused by Corticium salmonicolor occurred in different intensity and rate of spread in different plantations. In Sengulam plantation (40 ha), disease has attained an epidemic status causing multiple main stem and branch cankers, severe gummosis, partial to complete girdling of the stem, etc. Very severe incidence of disease (80-95%) with moderate to severe disease intensity occurred in certain patches (3-5 ha), very close to the reservoir (Sengulam reservoir) and those in valleys. High rainfall and relative humidity, and site factor are considered to be the major influencing factors for the sudden outbreak of the disease. As the plantations at different locations are raised from the same seed source (Coimbatore), high level variation (i.e. nil to severe) in disease incidence suggests that host susceptibility may not be the contributing factor for the disease development. Build-up of inoculum potential suspected to be played a major role in the disease incidence and spread to an epidemic status. Application of Bordeaux mixture (10% paste) in medium to severely affected areas in the plantations was carried out. The target application checked the disease, however possibility of recurrence of infection during the next year in other parts of the treated plants cannot be denied. Chemical control strategy only provides a short-term solution to manage the pink disease and hence long-term strategy of selection of elite disease evading trees/species/provenances and clonal propagation of the same for raising future cellulose reserve is warranted.

Extractions: In order to comply with compulsory vaccination laws, children get more than 30 shots before entering school in most states. Side effects, including everything from crippling meningitis to autism, are soaring. The situation has become so serious that the Association of American Physicians and Surgeons recently voted unanimously for a moratorium on vaccine mandates. In other words, these doctors believe that vaccines should be optional. Vaccinations should be based on decisions made by fully informed parents, and not imposed by health officials zealous to comply with unwise vaccine laws. ( The Washington Times If you listened to the FDA, youd eat everything fully cooked. Unpasteurized milk was demonized decades ago. More recent is the campaign to make you afraid of raw eggs. The latest scare tactics are being waged against unpasteurized orange juice. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention announced that it has linked more than 500 cases of salmonella infection over the past 16 months, including one death, to unpasteurized orange juice. ( , 9/25/00) The result is that fresh juice is no longer available in the stores, a move that has certainly pleased the soft drink companies. Why? Because most processed juice sales are controlled by Coca-Cola (owners of Minute Maid) or PepsiCo (owners of Tropicana). What the consumer is not hearing is the bad news about processed orange juice, which often contains heat-resistant fungi and pressure-resistant E coli. (

http://www.autism.com/ari/editorials/garbagescience.html

Extractions: Garbage science! That is how psychiatrist Eric London characterized what he had just heard from several fellow parents of autistic children. Some of the parents were also MDs or professionals in other fields. If you presented your views to a journal-reading club at a medical school, Dr. London continued, they would be thrown out the door. The view that Dr. London objected to so strongly-that perfectly normal children had become severely autistic shortly after being inoculated with vaccines containing large amounts of highly toxic mercury-had been presented by parent-attendees at a National Institutes of Health meeting on October 23, 2000. The conference on The Role of the Environment in Autism, was sponsored by the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences. Continuing to deride what he called garbage science, Dr. London went on to explain that scientific progress proceeds like the building of a brick wall. You start with a solid foundation to which you add, very systematically, experimentally proven facts, which fit neatly into place, brick by brick. I arose and objected strenuously to Dr. Londons assertions, noting that Dr. Londons brick-wall model of scientific progress reflected a very common misconception. The brick-wall model is a useful way to teach science to beginning students: Little steps for little feet. But it is not the way scientific progress actually occurs in real life. I had in fact addressed this very matter in my Afterword to Anabel Stehlis book

There may inadvertently be some inaccuracies in some places. Published in this site by written permission of the author, Prof. James Adams Dr. Spitzer discussed the lack of epidemiological studies that could clearly evaluate changes in the incidence of autism. He also discussed several epidemiological studies of MMR, which he feels are inadequate to determine whether or not MMR is a factor in autism. Therefore, he led the development of a plan on how to carry out a large international epidemiological study on autism. The plan would involve an international group of scientists from 8-9 countries in 3 continents. It would focus on 2 areas: an incidence study of new cases of autism to provide data for a time trend analysis, and 2) a case control study (comparing autism cases with controls) to investigate various possible causes of autism.

Potato Pink Rot, Pythium Leak And Seed-Piece Decay, HYG-3104-95
Information and management of this disease from Ohio State University Extension, U.S.
http://www.ag.ohio-state.edu/~ohioline/hyg-fact/3000/3104.html

Extractions: Pink rot and Pythium leak, sometimes collectively called water rot, occur sporadically wherever potatoes are grown. These diseases are a problem of mature tubers at harvest and in storage. They are most serious when warm, wet soil conditions persist during tuber formation and at harvest. When newly-planted seed pieces are exposed to these conditions, Pythium seed-piece decay also can be severe. Major problems with these diseases are usually associated with excessive rainfall or irrigation either early or late in the season, especially on poorly-drained soils. Pink rot is caused by several species of the soilborne fungus Phytophthora (NOT the species that causes late blight) while Pythium leak and seed-piece decay are caused by several species of the closely related soilborne fungus Pythium. These fungi are widely distributed in both water and soil, and their behavior is similar. They survive in soil within decaying plant material, or as resistant spores free in the soil. In warm, moist soil, these fungi produce swimming spores that move in water films. Roots can be infected by Phytophthora at almost any stage of plant growth, but symptoms are more severe on younger roots. Both groups of fungi infect tubers through wounds, but Phytophthora generally infects tubers before harvest, often through stolons. Infection by Pythium usually occurs through harvest wounds, especially at temperatures above 70 F. Seed pieces can be infected by Pythium as soon as they are planted.

Bacteria, isolated from surface-sterilized pink seeds, produced a water-soluble pink pigment on PDA. 7 isolates were tested for physiological characteristics using conventional tests (1) and API 50CHE test strips (bioMerieux Canada, St. Laurent, Quebec), and tested for cellular fatty acids using the MIDI system (Newark, DE). All isolates were gram-negative, motile, facultative anaerobic rods with mucoid colonies and produced a pink pigment on PDA. They were positive for citrate utilization, catalase, methyl red, and Voges-Proskauer, and negative for arginine dihydrolase, lysine and ornithine decarboxylases, urease, gelatin liquification, indole production, oxidase, and gas production. Fatty acid profiles matched with Er (ca. 30 percent each 16:0 and 16:1 w7c/15:0 iso 2OH; 12 percent 18:1 7c: 8 percent each 17:0 cyclo and 14:0 3OH/16:1 iso; 4 to 5 percent each 12:0 and 14:0).
