"A new generator, that kills bacteria and other microorganisms with very short sound waves, has been built at the University of California. The new device, developed by Prof. A. P. Krueger, consists of a nickel tube within a magnetic field, activated by electrical impulses.
"The tube is first elongated, then contracted by the alternative pulls of the magnets. So rapid is this oscillating motion that the nickel emits sound waves with a high frequency of 9,300 cycles per second. The tone is deadly to bacteria and viruses.
“Prof. Krueger’s new generator was developed in the intensive study of bacteriophage which he has been carrying on for the past fourteen years [1927-1941]. Dr. E.J. Scribner, research associate, and B. B. Brown, technical assistant, aided Prof. Krueger in his new sonic studies.”
The word permanently inert could also mean dead. This article also mentioned working with viruses. No healthy cells or tissue was effected. There was no further mention of Prof. Krueger’s research work in any literature or from the university. Sonic waves have been used in some areas of medicine, but the far greater possibilities with viruses, especially the virus of cancer, have not been discussed until a very short time ago.
Due to extreme pressures that exist within the cancer research field, researchers in many instances must marry their discoveries in energy medicine with the current chemical approaches in medicine. Researchers discuss how they can target chemicals in more selective manners using electromagnetic techniques, and how new electromagnetic devices can pinpoint the delivery of chemicals into a cancer tumor or cells.
Can you imagine that you have been selected to explore a new continent that has just been discovered? You prepare yourself with everything you believe you will need to explore this uncharted area. You have all your camping equipment, you have all the clothing that you believe you will need, and plenty of food.
As you prepare to explore, you are reminded of an edict that exists, that explorers can only move in a northerly direction. Your hunger for knowledge is not like other people. You have an inquiring mind that wants to see, learn and understand. This new continent is large, mysterious and virtually unknown. With this constraint of exploration in only one direction, would you ever know the extent of what exists throughout all of this area?
