A Cosmic Prevalence of Nanobacteria?
The data on the far-ultraviolet extinction of starlight in our galaxy and in external galaxies is interpreted in terms of the widespread occurrence of organic particles of optical refractive index 1.4 and radii less than or equal to 20 nm. Such particles are candidates for nanobacteria such as recently been found in abundance on the Earth.
متن کاملNanobacteria: Facts or Fancies?
An audacious theory proposes the existence of a novel form of life—the nanobacteria (NB)—that is quite different from the ones already known, but is capable of infecting and damaging other beings, thus qualifying them as new agents of emerging infectious diseases. The theory is no less revolutionary than the famous germ theory of disease, which was put on solid ground by the efforts of Pasteur ...
متن کاملNanobacteria Are Mineralo Fetuin Complexes
"Nanobacteria" are nanometer-scale spherical and ovoid particles which have spurred one of the biggest controversies in modern microbiology. Their biological nature has been severely challenged by both geologists and microbiologists, with opinions ranging from considering them crystal structures to new life forms. Although the nature of these autonomously replicating particles is still under de...
متن کاملEndotoxin and nanobacteria in polycystic kidney disease.
BACKGROUND Microbes have been suspected as provocateurs of polycystic kidney disease (PKD), but attempts to isolate viable organisms have failed. Bacterial endotoxin is the most often reported microbial product found in PKD fluids. We assessed potential microbial origins of endotoxin in cyst fluids from 13 PKD patients and urines of PKD and control individuals. METHODS Fluids were probed for ...
متن کاملAssociation between nanobacteria and periodontal disease.
Publications Book. 2002;206A. Response We have proposed several potential explanations for the association between oral health and cardiovascular disease, and the activation or release of inflammatory mediators caused by bacteria is one.1–3 However, different measures of oral health, such as the number of remaining teeth, recent tooth loss, and periodontal disease that could reflect different p...
