Rauscher, Ph.D. This paper presents experimental designs and results of three major studies in which a well-known healer's intention to produce a healing effect was correlated with increased growth and motility in a well-characterized bacterial system. Use of a model bacterial system made it possible to design a prototype experiment correlating intention with growth and motility effects in a remote shielded sterile system. Optimally growing bacterial cultures were prepared, and different amounts and types of chemical antibacterial agents were added to cultures in separate test tubes. Multiple samples of such preparations were made and separated into two groups, one to be treated by the healer and the other to serve as untreated controls. Statistical comparisons were made between (1) healer-treated samples, (2) controls, and (3) extensive baseline data. Antibiotic dose response studies were also conducted using different types and amounts of inhibitors. Highly significant and reproducible effects of healer-treated samples over controls were found. As anticipated, differential dose response effects were found in which the healer's effects were more pronounced for lower concentrations of agents. -- The silver-list is a moderated forum for discussion of colloidal silver.
