Brooks, thank you for your insight and knowledge. H202 and the lungs are
definitely a "don't try this yourself" situation. Thank you. suzy
To all interested listmembers:I have followed
the recxent postings relative toincorporating H202 into the pulmonary system
protocol involvingnebulization. After inquiring from some of our staff
involved in some ofour evaluations several years ago.....I am informed that
CAUTION is thewatchword when dealing with unknown pathogenic parameters. I
am informedthat pronounced adverse reactions occurred in some of our
animalevaluations. The problem was determined to be based uponthe
nature/condition of the biological terrain of the lungs----AT THE TIMEOF
INHALATION. It seems that, although, theair sacs are superficially exposed
to atmospheric 02 on every inhalation(excepting those compromised by anerobic
pathogens insulated from this highO2 gas (air) .....there exists a
circumstance presenting serious challengesto the UNREGULATED exposure to
H202. The systemic challenge can manifest ifsufficient volume of the H202
mist comes into sudden...direct contact withANY sizeable anerobic population
If there is a sizeable population ofanerobes present----WHICH PRESENT
IMMEDIATE ACCESSIBLITY to the incomingH202 mist......the possibility exists
that the foaming action could be greatenough to generate SERIOUS
consequences. This possibility rises by an orderof magnitude if DMSO is
involved in the protocol. Our staff confirmed thisthrough animal
experiments. Adverse reactions were encountered in somecases involving H202
concentrations as low as 2%. The stabilizing protocolinvolved 100% 02 at
1.25 atmospheres----and was instituted at the FIRSTsigns of pulmonary
distress.In my opinion, administering CS in combinationwith H202----into an
unknown pathogenic environment involving thelungs----could be VERY serious.
I am not attempting to be alarmist in thisinstance; just pointing out what
should be obvious to alldeliberate/cautious researchers. The odds against a
serious adverseoccurrence are, probably, higher than its likelihood......but
even long oddsare not too desireable when the breathing system is involved.If
one insists on experimenting with such aprotocol, it would appear prudent to
start at or below .5% H202 . Itwould, also, be adviseable to mix a sample
of the volunteer's sputum with agenerous amount of your protocol solution and
observe for reaction.....priorto inducing inhalation
procedures.Sincerely,Brooks Bradley.
