Re: [DIYbio] Re: RFI: Biochip screening analyers

Of course another reason we might respond to their chemical signals could include that fact that we have bacteria and fungi inside our own microbiome and mycobiome so much so that they outnumber our own cells.

Thanks for that. I will check out those links. I'm also working on block-chain UBI while I go back and do some more study. It's getting busy :)

I'm with you on microbes communicating with chemicals!  Gary Strobel did a lot of work on endophytic fungi and also some volatile compounds that have bio-active properties (and I'm sure signalling in some instances).


You'll need to use sci-hub.tw to get past paywall.

This is an AMAZING Documentary I saw 8 years ago and it got me hooked into natural products from microbes/fungi forever.


And there is of course the cordyceps fungi that use chemicals to control their hosts for better spore disperal.


Best of luck with endeavors!

Hi Dakota,

I lived in a water damaged rental house between October 2016 and April 2018. 
I ended up with looking very sickly and experienced psychological issues as well as loss of employment and employment prospects.
I believe that "haunted houses" e.g. dark, damp houses are actually mould houses but we didn't know about mould back in those times so we attributes the strange goings-on with evil spirits. Even today mould is considered quite supernatural and quickly dismissed by most doctors.

Additionally I believe I have discovered that fungi communicates with a chemical lexicon that works like a cross between language used by the heptapods in "The Arrival" and hypnotic commands. These MVOCs (microbial organic compounds)  form a chemical lexicon that effects humans and animals on a subconscious level and this has been conserved across evolution. This can cause anything from changes in social and social-sexual behavior to more serious mental health changes.

I would love to be able to do more research but for now I am aiming on helping people find and get rid of mould in their rental properties and workplaces as it seems that most people (such as property managers and line managers) have little science knowledge and or consider mould harmless. I don't believe this is the case.

best regards,

Christopher Caston

Here is a product I've seen in home depot.


It is really just a Petri dish.  Ive known a few people who are super paranoid about mould and have paid hundreds of dollars for testing and believe all their health problems are from aflatoxins from black mould while they're on about 10 different pharmaceuticals for varying ailments and don't understand why their doctor won't get their insurance to pay for testing.

Where there is paranoia there is a market! 

Not saying some houses aren't riddled with it but...

What's your end goal with your research?

That's very useful thank you. I'll add that to our knowledge-base.

A Petri dish of potato dextrose agar open for an hour will tell you if you have mould as well and it'll cost a quarter.

I sent them a contact message with the following text:

OK don't excited because I don't have any money but I am seriously interested in finding out how much the Evidence Investigator – Biochip Immunoanalyser would cost. My main interest is mycotoxin testing. I have started a biological security volunteer taskforce to help people that suspect there may be mould in the home or workplace. I guess if you let me know a rough figure that might help organise for a local lab to purchase the device. Thank you.

Hello,

Does anyone here have any information about Biochip based screening analyzers? 

For example the Randox Investigator:


How much would one of these babies cost?

I'm not in a position to buy one myself hence I haven't contacted the company. If anyone has perhaps a ballpark figure to the nearest 10k or something that would be great.

Also if there are any other devices similar to this you might suggest.

I'm guessing it would be pretty much near impossible to just build something DIY but if anyone has attempted this please let me know.

best regards,

Christopher Caston
