J’avais envoyé cela à Nanectis il y a quelques temps (sans réponse). Cela me semble la seule explication logique. S’il y a polymérisation, c’est que préexiste des courants électriques dans l’eau (ions H3O+ / OH-). Cela permet de bien comprendre la structure de l’ADN - acide phosphorique sur les bords - bases azotées au centre. et forme hélicoïdale, forme classique pour les déplacements ioniques.

Explaining
digital biology is impossible without explaining its principle. The
purpose of this text is not to report experimental results. Rather, it
tries to explain to laymen, in the simplest terms, this radically new
approach to biology. We hope it will be useful to all, scientists or
not, who find it hard to « make the leap ». Indeed, is it possible to
believe that the specific activity of biologically-active molecules
(e.g. histamine, caffeine, nicotine, adrenalin), not to mention the
immunological signature of a virus or bacterium can be recorded and
digitized using a computer sound card, just like an ordinary sound ?
Imagine the perplexity of Archimedes confronted with a telephone, and
being told that by using it he could be heard on the other side of the
world, were we not to explain the nature of sound waves or their
translation into electromagnetism.
Life depends on signals
exchanged among molecules. For example, when you get angry, adrenalin
« tells » its receptor, and it alone (as a faithful molecule, it talks to
no other) to make your heart beat faster, to contract superficial blood
vessels, etc.. In biology, the words « molecular signal » are used very
often. Yet, if you ask even the most eminent biologists what the
physical nature of this signal is, they seem not even to understand the
question, and stare at you wide-eyed. In fact, they’ve cooked up a
rigorously Cartesian physics all their own, as far removed as possible
from the realities of contemporary physics, according to which simple
contact (Descarte’s laws of impact, quickly disproved by Huygens)
between two coalescent structures creates energy, thus constituting an
exchange of information. For many years, I believed and recited this
catechism without realizing its absurdity, just as mankind did not
realize the absurdity of the belief that the sun circles the earth.
The
truth, based on facts, is very simple. It does not require any
« collapse of the physical or chemical worlds. » That molecules vibrate,
we have known for decades. Every atom of every molecule and every
intermolecular bond-the bridge that links the atoms-emits a group of
specific frequencies. Specific frequencies of simple or complex
molecules are detected at distances of billions of light-years, thanks
to radio-telescopes. Biophysicists describe these frequencies as an
essential physical characteristic of matter, but biologists do not
consider that electromagnetic waves can play a role in molecular
functions themselves. We cannot find the words « frequency » or « signal »
(in the physical sense of the term) in any treatise on molecular
interactions in biology, not to speak of the term « electromagnetic, » use
of which would be - at least in France - a cause for excommunication of
any offending biologist by the scientific Papal Office...
Like
Archimedes, I would have liked to have had a brilliant idea in my
bathtub : "Eureka, the vibrations of molecules don’t exist for them to
dance the salsa at a Saturday night ball ; vibrations are the tools of
their trade, which allow them to send instructions to the next molecule
down the line in the cascade of events which govern biological
functions, and probably, to a large extent, chemical ones as well."
Unfortunately, this was not the case. I followed a purely experimental
approach. After eight years of research, around 1991, my experiments
showed that we could transfer specific molecular signals by using an
amplifier and electromagnetic coils. In July, 1995, I recorded and
replayed these signals using a multimedia computer. A computer sound
card only records frequencies up to about 20,000 Hz. In the course of
several thousand experiments, we have led receptors (specific to simple
or complex molecules) to « believe » that they are in the presence of
their favorite molecules by playing the recorded frequencies of those
molecules. In order to arrive at this result, two operations are
necessary : 1) record the activity of the substance on a computer ; 2)
« replay » it to a biological system. sensitive to the same substance.
Therefore, there is every reason to think that when a molecule itself is
in the presence of its receptor, it does the same thing : it emits
frequencies which the receptor is capable of recognizing.
Which
means that a molecular signal can be efficiently represented by a
spectrum of frequencies between 20Hz and 20,000 Hz, the same range as
the human hearing or music. For several hundred thousand years, human
beings have been relating sound frequencies to a biological mechanism :
the emotions. Composers of background music for supermarkets or
elevators are practicing neuropsychology without knowing it.
High-pitched rapid sounds engender lightness of spirit, high-pitched
slow sounds, sweetness, sounds both deep and rapid awaken the fighting
spirit, while deep, slow sounds invoke serious emotions, sadness and
mourning. These are fundamentally cerebral physico-chemical phenomena,
triggered by defined frequencies. We do nothing more than this when we
transmit pre-recorded molecular activities to biological systems.
Therefore,
one may hypothesize that biological systems function like radio sets,
by coresonance. If you tune a receiver to 92.6 MHz, you tune in
Radio-This, because the receiver and the transmitter vibrate at the same
frequency. If we change the setting a little to, say, 92.7, we no
longer receive Radio-This, but Radio-That instead.
These
advances in understanding the inmost mechanism of molecular recognition
and signaling do not overturn the science of biology, and even less
those of physics and chemistry. We have taken nothing away from classic
descriptions, but only taken a step forward by adding to the present
body of knowledge. This is the normal course of scientific progress, and
there is no reason for it to provoke imprecations and anathema.
The
electromagnetic nature of the molecular signal sheds light on many
shadowy areas of biology. We can now understand how millions of
biological molecules can communicate (at the speed of light), each with
its own corresponding molecule, and it alone, the basic requirement for
the functioning of biological systems...and why minute chemical
modifications produce considerable functional consequences, something
« structural » biologists are at a loss to explain. In deciding that only
structures can have an action, biologists find themselves in a
pre-Newtonian world where the movement of celestial bodies is described
by Ptolemy in terms of epicycles. Hence the inability of contemporary
biology to provide answers to the major pathologies of the end of this
century (my article in Le Monde, May 22, 1996, which has not been
challenged to date). The passage from the rigid biology of structures to
one of information traveling at the speed of light can be accomplished
without a « revolution. » Contrary to what is stupidly claimed by
scientific gossips, recording the activity of molecules no more implies
denying their existence (after all, molecule-specific electromagnetic
messages must come from specific molecules) than it does denying the law
of mass action, according to which the effect is directly proportional
to the number of molecules. One might as well expect a singer to
disappear by recording his voice ! In other words, we eliminate neither
the light-switch nor the light bulb ; we only say that a wire with a
current of electrons connects the two. We are not in another,
electromagnetic world which we are substituting for the old molecular
world. We capture, copy, transfer-and soon will modify-electromagnetic
signals emitted by molecules in the course of their normal functioning.
What
about water in all this ? It is the vehicle for information. This cannot
be avoided, since there are 10,000 water molecules in the human body
for every molecule of protein. There is no problem with this either ; a
submarine communicates with its base via low-frequency electromagnetic
waves, not with megahertz frequencies, which do not penetrate water. We
have recently completed very simple experiments showing that a molecule
at a normally active concentration does not work in a medium devoid of
water. Adding water is not enough to restore activity ; it must be
« informed. » In other words, when molecules trigger a biological effect,
they are not directly transmitting the signal. The final job is done by
perimolecular water which relays and possibly amplifies the signal.
Sound is not directly created by a compact disc. The latter carries data
which is audible only after being amplified by an electronic system.
The
« memory of water ? » It is more mysterious, but no more so than the fact
that a compound formed from two gases should be liquid at normal
temperature and pressure, and dilate as it cools. Coherent domains with
laser-like properties have been described in water (E. del Giudice, G.
Preparata, G. Vitiello (1988) ’Water as a free electric dipole laser’,
Phys. Rev. Lett. 61:1085-1088). More recently, a unique type of stable
(non-melting) ice crystal that maintains an electrical field has been
identified and characterized in water. Truly, unemployment should not be
a worry for physicists ! Nonetheless, water is not our subject of
investigation. What interests us is not the nature of the magnetic
medium and how it functions, but the message recorded in it, which can
be copied and transmitted. In the light of our experimental results, we
are confident in our belief that we have elucidated the physical nature
of the molecular signal. The principle is as simple as exploding a
mixture of air and gasoline, but the consequences are enormous.
We present them in detail elsewhere. Here is a summary :
At
the present time, the only way to identify a molecule is to carry a
sample, most often obtained invasively or even destructively, to a
laboratory. With the digital method, we dispose of a signal which can be
instantly transmitted and analyzed at the other end of the world by
classic means of telecommunication. Using this method, the detection of
toxic substances, proteins (antigens, antibodies, prions) or molecular
complexes (parasites, bacteria, viruses, abnormal cells) should become
possible without physical sampling. It is noteworthy that no in vivo
detection methods of prions presently exists, with well-known
epidemiological and economic consequences. The detection of antigens and
antibodies, just to mention this field, represents a considerable share
of the activity of clinical biology laboratoires. Moreover, some
results seem to indicate that these methods should be applicable to the
chemical industry and to environmental surveillance, e.g. to detecting,
at a distance, micro-organisms or products from genetically modified
plants.
Completion of these projects would have immense
consequences on medical diagnostic procedures and the agro-food
industry, with huge technological and commercial impact.
A final
question : why are scientists so opposed to the evolution of science ? Is
it to defend their piece of turf ? Why, in the name of intangible dogmas,
which the history of science has shown to be so often ephemeral, do
they reject advances which represent progress for their discipline ? Do
these advances appear to threaten their all-too-fragile certitudes ? Such
questions are not just philosophical, because these people are
respected counselors, advisers to political and industrial
decision-makers. They orient-most often by hampering-new applications
flowing from scientific progress. I don’t know where these mental blocks
come from, but they are, in theory at least, irreconcilable with a
scientist’s function. Here is a quote (translated from the French
edition of Encyclopedia Universalis, taken from the article on
Mechanism) which shows, alas, that those blocks are eternal :
We
have a good example of the dilemma of « mechanism » in the Cartesians’
opposition to the Newtonian world-view, which they felt completely
called into question the new science and pushed scientific thinking back
to a level beneath what « mechanism » had already achieved. The problem
is, for Descartes, that movement is only possible if there is contact
and impulsive force ; action at a distance-attraction, as Fontenelle was
to say-can only mean a return to a physics of sympathetic motion and
occult attributes...In this way, they do not engage Newton in a
scientific controversy ; they disqualify him for obscurantism. Thus the
French scientific community resisted Newtonian theory for a long time,
or would prefer to ignore it...But « mechanism, » which is an obstacle to
scientific progress, remains blocked. No doubt, Newton is less an
opponent of « mechanism » than he is the proposer, by provoking a total
break, of another model of physical mechanics in which movements other
than those produced by impulsion become possible.
Four centuries
later, we hear the same words : « there must be molecules » (François
Jacob)-that is, contact, forceful impulsion-according to our sages of
science, still frozen in the Cartesian mechanistic dogma : the same
denial of action at a distance, and the same accusations of a return to
obscurantism.
L’hypothèse a été définie rigoureusement par Benveniste :
Il s’agissait de passer d’un modèle mécaniste de type clé-serrure à un modèle électromagnétique dans les interactions entre molécules biologiques.
Ce qui, entre parenthèse, va de soi en physique/chimie, puisque que les interactions physiques / chimiques sont, au niveau microscopique, issues des interactions électroniques.
L’appellation « mémoire de l’eau » est issu d’un trait d’ironie d’un journaliste de science et vie (Gérald Messadié), qui n’a pas plus creusé que ça l’hypothèse de Benveniste.
