Abstract. Next to atoms and mo lecules the powders are th e smallest state of matter a vailable in high purities

and large quantities. The effect of any exter nal energy on the shape, morphology and structure can thus be

studied with relative eas e. The present investigati on deals with the effect of a non-contact external energy on

the powders of antim ony and bismuth. The characteristics of powders treated by externa l energy are com-

Apart from atoms and molecules the next smallest mate-

rials available are powders. These could be single crystal-

line or polycrysta lline, the particle size of which is in the

yana 1995, 1999). Particles exhibit fine microstructures

and can contain such a high density of defects (point de-

fects, dislocations, sub (crystallite) boundaries, grain

boundaries, inter phase bo undaries, etc.) that the spacing

between neighbouring defects in nano size powders can

even approach the inter atomic distance (Gleiter 1992).

As the grain size bec omes smaller and smaller, a larger

and larger fraction of atoms re sides on the single crystal

grain boundaries (at a 6 nm grain size, nearly half the

atoms reside on the grain boundaries), thus the behaviour

of nano sized powders is often dominated by events at the

grain boundaries (Mayo 1996).

Due to the extremely small size of the grains and a

large fraction of the atoms located at the grain bounda-

ries, materials made from these powders possess proper-

ties like higher strength/hardness, enhance d diffusivity,

improved ductility/toughness, reduced elastic modulus,

increased specific heat, higher electrical resistivity,

higher thermal expansion coefficient, lower thermal con-

ductivity, and superior magnetic properties much improved

over those exhibited by conventional grain sized

Both micro meter and nano meter sized powders are

produced by methods like mechanical milling (Mohan et al

1999), inert gas condensation, spra y conversion process,

deposition (Suryanara yana 1995), etc. Often mechanical

milling is used for synthesi s of fine and nano sized pow-

ders in bulk quantities using simple equipment and at

room temperature (Suryanarayana 1999). During this

process, the metal powder particles are subjected to

severe mechanical deformation from collisions with the

milling tools. Consequently, plastic deformation at high

meters after extended milling (Benjamin 1976; Fecht

twinning at low and moderate strain rates, while at high

strain rates it occurs by the formation of shear bands,

consisting of dense networks of dislocations. The plastic

strain in the material increases due to increasing disloca-

tion density in the early stages of ball milling. At a

threshold dislocation density, even at moderately elevated

temperatures, the material relaxes into sub grains sepa-

rated by low-angle boundaries, leading to a decrease of

atomic level strain. During sub sequent milling the pro-

cess of high deformation/sub grain formation is repeated

resulting in the sub grains becoming finer and finer, and

the relative orientation of the sub grains with respect to

each other ultimately becoming completely random. Once

the sub grains reach a critical level of refinement, further

refinement becomes virtually impossible since the

stresses required for dislocation movement are enormously

high due to the Hall-Petch strengthening. Thus nano

sized powders with a minimum grain size are produced

energy on antimony and bism uth powders was investi-

gated. These powders were chosen as they belong to the

same group in the periodic table and have low melting

points. Metals of low melting point generally exhibit low

bond energy and were thought to be more significantly

affected by the external energy. Powders were chosen as

they are the finest form of these metals readily available

in high purity levels. Powders also exhibit a high surface

area and thus were expected to be more receptive to the

powder were prepared, the first set which was untreated

was designated as control while the other sets exposed to

external energy referred to as treated samples. The con-

trol and the treated samples were characterized by X-ray

diffraction (XRD), laser particle size analysis, surface

(DTA-DTG), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC),

The percent change in particle size of various treated

powders with respect to control powders were computed

Percent change in average particle size =

was computed. Percent change in BET surface was calcu-

lated in a similar manner as indicated in (1).

The crystallite size was calculat ed using the formula

where λ is the wavelength of X-radiation used (1⋅ 54056 ×

0⋅ 94. The obtained crystallit e size will be in nano meters

or 10-9 m. Crystallite size in metals can correspond to sub

grain size when the grain size is equivalent to single cry-

stal size. It is also possible that some part of the observed

X-ray peak width could be due to the instrument broaden-

ing (already corrected) while the other part could be due

to the strain in the crystal lattice.

The change between various powders is assessed by

using relative parameters as follows: Percent change in

lattice parameter is the ratio of difference in the values

between control and treated samples to the value of con-

parameter 'a ' this is equal to 100 × (Δa /ac ) where Δa =

(a t - ac )/ ac . This is also known as strain, and, when multi-

plied with the elastic modulus gives the force applied on

negative while a positive value indicates a stretching or

tensile force. In a similar manner the percent change in

unit cell volume and crystallite sizes are computed.

The weight of atom is computed from the sum of all

electrons, protons and neutrons.

Weight of atom = number of protons × weight of proton +

electrons × weight of electron.

Since the number of atoms per unit cell of the crystal is

known, the weight of the unit cell is computed. The latter

divided by the volume of the unit cell gave the theoretical

density. Since the volume of unit cell of the powder

changed on treatment, the density as w ell as weight of

ratio difference in atomic weight between control and

treated samples to the atomic weight of control sample is

then expressed as per cent change in atomic weight.

Typically this is same as 100 × ( Δ M/ Mc ) where Δ M =

(Mt - M c )/Mc . This value also represents the percent

change in sum of weights of protons and neutrons in the

Aluminium powders are used in a wide range from propelling rockets to improving personal hygiene. More

popular industrial applications include manufacture of silver metallic pigments, paints, inks, plastics, packaging,

textiles and aerospace industry. As thick film pastes used in the manufacture of silicon solar cells, and as reducing

agent and sources of heat, used in alumina thermic and exothermic applications.

In the present investigation, Aluminium powders were exposed to non-contact Biofield treatment. Both the

exposed and unexposed powders were later characterized by various techniques. The average particle size, after a

slight initial decrease was found to increase after 80 days of treatment substantially, which suggested the operation

of competing mechanisms fracture and sintering (micro welding). The BET surface area monotonically decreased

which was consistent with increase in particle size. SEM photographs showed that samples exposed to Biofield after

38 days showed growth in particle size and particles joined at inter and intra particle boundaries. X-ray diffraction of

the powder samples indicated both increase and decrease in crystallite size, unit cell volume, change in nuclear

charge per unit volume of atom and atomic weight of samples exposed to Biofield even after 106 days.

These results indicated that properties of Aluminium powders could be changed even up to atomic level by

A broad spectrum of radiant energies exists known as

electromagnetic waves, ranging from the ultra-low, low, and infrared

rays; all emanating from the human body. The peak intensity of the

electromagnetic radiation of the human biofield is in the infrared

Most of the radiation emitted by human body is in the infrared

region, mainly at the wavelength of 12 micron. Additionally, Human

skin is an almost perfect emitter of infrared radiation in the spectral

region beyond 3 microns [2].

In this study, Aluminium Powder (150 Mesh) has been subjected to

a non-contact biofield of Mr. Mahendra Trivedi, who is known to

materials in controlled research experiments. The details of several

scientific investigations and the results achieved through Biofield, in

Material science, in the form of original data are reported elsewhere

[3-18]. Biofield may act directly on molecular structures, changing the

conformation of molecules in functionally significant ways.

The present paper reports the impact of Biofield on Aluminium

powder, which is characterised by X-ray diffraction (XRD), specific

surface area determination (BET) and Laser particle size analysis.

Aluminium powder passing through 150 Mesh (MEPCO Ltd.) was

selected for experiments. A number of sets of each powder were

prepared; the first set that was untreated was designated as sample

time't' in number of days after treatment and shown in Figure 2. The

percentage increase in particles coarser than average particle size is

much more than percentage increases in particles finer than average

particle size. Thus, after about 80 day's treatment the percent of coarse

particles are much larger than fine particles. This also could be the

reason for the observed decrease in specific surface area.

powders treated after 38 days showing a rounding, and coarsening

of particles due to joining of several particles at inter particle

boundaries.

What must be happening to cause these significant changes in

particle size and surface area? In order to find a probable cause the

powders were examined by x ray diffraction.

Obtained 'd' values are compared with standard JCPDS data base

and the Miller Indices h, k and l for various 2θo values were noted. The

data were then analyzed using PowderX software to obtain lattice

parameters and unit cell volume.

The crystallite size was calculated using the formula,

Crystallite size = k λ/ b Cos θ ................................. (2)

Where, λ is the wavelength of x-radiation used (1.54056 x 10-10 m),

'b' is the peak width at half height, and k is the equipment constant

with a value 0.94. The obtained crystallite size will be in Nano meters

or 10-9 m. Crystallite size in metals can correspond to sub grain size

when the grain size is equivalent to single crystal size. It is also possible

that some part of the observed X- ray peak width could be due to the

instrument broadening (already corrected) while the other part could

be due to the strain in the crystal lattice.

The change between various powders was assessed by using relative

Percent change in lattice parameter is the ratio of difference in the

untreated powders expressed as percent. Typically for the parameter

'a' this is equal to 100* (Δa/ac) where Δa=(at- ac )/ac . This is also known

as strain, and, when multiplied with the elastic modulus gives the force

applied on the atoms. When the force is compressive the change is

negative while a positive value indicates a stretching or tensile force. In

a similar manner the percent change in unit cell volume and crystallite

The weight of atom was computed from the sum of all electrons,

Weight of atom = number of protons × weight of proton + number

of neutrons × weight of neutron + number of electrons × weight of

Since the number of atoms per unit cell of the crystal was known,

the weight of the unit cell was computed. The latter divided by the

volume of the unit cell gives the theoretical density. Since the volume

of unit cell of the powder changes on treatment, the density as well as

weight of atom will also change.

The weight of the atom when multiplied by the Avogadro's number

(6.023×1023 ) gives the atomic weight (M) or the weight of a gram atom

untreated and treated samples to the atomic weight of untreated

value also represents the percent change in sum of weights of protons

and neutrons in the nucleus.

The atomic radius was obtained by dividing the lattice parameter 'a'

Abstract: Recent studies report the effect of biofield treatment on changes in structural characteristics

of organic and inorganic matter, on cancer cells in vitro and on overall plant development. This study

tested the impact of the same treatment applied to lettuce and tomato seeds and transplants (Lactuca

sativa var. capitata and Lycopersiconesculentum var. Roma) in commercial plantings with and without

fertilizers and pesticides, in relation to yield, quality, and pest inhibition. Treated lettuce plants with

fertilizer and pesticide applications were more vigorous, exhibited less incidence of soil-borne fungal

wilt, and subsequent yield was statistically greater 43% compared to untreated plants. Treated plants

with no fertilizer or pesticide applications in the field behaved similarly to untreated plants that

received routine fertilizer and pest control inputs. Similarly, fertilizer applied and fertilizer non-applied

treated tomato plants exhibited a 25% and 31% increase in total observable yields respectively. Treated

tomato and lettuce plants also measured higher in total leaf tissue chlorophyll content. The

combination of biofield treatment along with administration of chemical additives demonstrated the

best results with statistically increased yields and higher pest resistance in both test cropping systems.

The specific mechanisms that lead to these preliminary results have yet to be determined.

Key words: Crop development;Biofield treatment; Fertilizer and Organic; Lettuce; Tomato.

Information-containing biofield energies have been postulated to be associated with living organisms and to

affect their self-regulation processes (Rubik, 2002). Recent studies by Trivedi and Tallapragada (2008, 2009)

present enhanced and lasting transformations seen in the physical and structural properties of organic and

inorganic materials which were the effect of consciousness energy when transmitted using specific techniques.

These authors report that elemental diamond, graphite and activated charcoal powders showed measureable and

significant changes in their molecular structure, and go on to suggest that thebiofield energy may involve

electromagnetic and weak interactions.Dabhadeet al. (2009) suggest thatmeasurable changes in particle size and

hence surface area as well as crystallite size of two test substances, antimony and bismuth metal powders,which

they observed as a consequence of a similar treatment,was due to increased energy states caused within the

treated substances.Trivedi and Patil (2011) reported multiple year results on Alphonso Mangos in Asia. The

mango study showed yield increases and pest infestation decreases over a four year time period versus control

trees which on the contrary showed lower yields and increased pest pressure. More recently the biofield energy

was tested on Patchouli micropropagation (Patilet al., 2012) where it was reported to increase regeneration and

cause an overall improvement in plant health. In related studies, the biofield energy was reported to impact

cancer cells in vitro (Yount et al., 2012).The studies on living organisms are able to probe more relevant aspects

of the information content in biofield energies, in order to establish both the reality of the impact as well as its

nature. However, both the in vitro studies were in protected environments showing variability in the results. It

can be expected that adaptive forces would bebetter testedin vivo in the field where the normal challenge of the

environment is experienced and the informational integrity of the organism is also maintained. The nature of

thebiofield energy in these experiments may be expected to produce more well-defined results under such

conditions. However, the mango study was performed on a pre-existing pest infested mango orchard and does

not document the results of systematic treatment under a variety of conditions.

Although science has earlier tested such energies in plants, in the above-mentioned studies the scientific

facts to support such claimsare for the first time seeingreproducible and significant results in experimental

observations. The source of biofield energy treatments are those of an internationally reputed energy healer

whose name is here withheld according to recommended best scientific practice, but can be provided on demand

for replication experiments. While any improvement in human health under such interaction can be accounted

for by the placebo effect, such results in plant systems indicate some basic properties of living organisms which

need to be noted. An understanding of the energy and its use can help improve the environmental conditions

during plant cultivation.In this paper we report on the observed results of crop quality and yield of treated and

untreated tomato and lettuce plantings in organic conditions and in the presence of needbase fertilizers and

pesticides applied according to standard procedure. Scientific mechanismsare not here speculated upon; at this

Aust. J. Basic & Appl. Sci., 6(10): 100-105, 2012

stage we report the positive results observed in our experiments. Further experimentation is necessary in order to

generate the hypotheses regarding underlying mechanisms.

The objective was to conduct a blind study to determine the potential influence of biofield therapy on

growth & development of lettuce & tomato in commercial plantings and to systematically compare the effects

with and without application of fertilizers and pesticides.The treated and untreated plants were planted in plots

in randomized fashion and the location of treated plants remained undisclosed to evaluators during the study.

Seeds were treated and allowed to germinate until ready to be transplanted. The seedlings were treated

again, transplanted into an open field, and allowed to develop according to the season. As a control, untreated

seeds were allowed to germinate in the same manner and transplanted alongside the treated plots in a

randomized fashion. Needbase fertilizers and pesticides were applied onto one set of plots with transplants from

both untreated and treated seeds. Another set of plots for both untreated and treated transplants did not receive

The Biofield treatment was applied for about 3 minutes from a distance of about 1 meter from the samples.

The energy source individual was escorted to the laboratory for treating seeds and to the field for tre ating

transplants, was seated on a chair at the given distance from the material to be treated, and was observed to

focus concentrated thought outwardly towards the seeds or plants ready to be transplanted. The untreated

samples were not in the same room or plot at the time.Each treated set received the treatment twice, the seeds

once before being germinated and the resulting plants 53 days later just before they were transplanted in the

Treated and untreated lettuce plants were planted in separate randomly allocated plots in five replicates

measuring 3.33' by 60' on clay loam soil.Treated and untreated tomato plants were similarly planted in separate

plots measuring 6.66' by 50' on sandy loam soil.Plots were hand transplanted, hand harvested, and drip

Needbase fertilizer and pesticide applications:

Fertilizer 18:6:12 was applied at a rate of 600 lb/a slow release pre-planting.The following pesticides were

applied 18 days after transplanting (DAT): (a) Endura at a rate of 11 oz/a for the purpose of controlling

controlling Downy Mildew (Bremialactucae ). (c) Maneb at a rate of 2 lb/a for the purpose of controlling Downy

Fertilizer 18:6:12 was applied at a rate of 600 lb/a slow release pre-planting.Fertilizer 7:7:7 was applied at

45, 52, 59, 66, and 80 DAT at a rate of 20 gal/a. The following pesticides were applied: (a) Bravo Weatherstik at

a rate of 1.5 pt/a for the purpose of controlling Late Blight (Phytophthorainfestans ) on 63, 84, and 90 DAT. (b)

Quadris at a rate of 10.5 oz/a for the purpose of controlling Powdery Mildew (Oidiumneolycopersici ) on 63, 84,

and 90 DAT. (c) Ran-man at a rate of 3.0 floz/a for the purpose of controlling Late Blight

(Phytophthorainfestans ) on 114 and 121 DAT.

All evaluations were carried out in blinded fashion, with assessors unaware of the location of treated plants.

at 21, 35, 50, and 56 DAT. Stand reduction was calculated using the formula:

Percent reduction in stand=100 x (Reduced Stand / Original Stand)

Chlorophyll content was measured using a spad meter (Spectrum Technologies, Inc., Plainfield, IL) from 10

plants per replicate plot at 32 DAT.Lettuce heads were harvested 56 days after transplanting, and were assessed

for marketable quality and size based on market standards.

Aust. J. Basic & Appl. Sci., 6(10): 100-105, 2012

Crop vigor and stand counts were assessed at 41 DAT and plants measured for height and diameter.

Chlorophyll content wasmeasured at 89 DAT, just before start of harvesting, using a spad meter,from 10 plants

per replicate plot. Tomatoes were harvested over the course of seven pickings between104 t o 126 days after

transplantingand were assessed for marketable quality and size based on market standards.Roots from ten

tomato plants were analyzed for severity of Nematode infection based on a 0-10 scale with 10 representing

maximum severity and lycopene content was assessed at 129 DAT.

Wilted plants and stand reduction results by treatment are presented in Table 1. Biofield treated seeds with

fertilizers/pesticides (TF) showed the lowest amount of total wilted plants per replicate plot.This resulted in the

lowest stand reduction, 14.2%, in comparison to control seeds with fertilizers/pesticides (CF) at 27%.Although

both control and biofieldtreated seeds without fertilizers/pesticides (designated C and T, respectively) showed

similar wilted plants to the CF, the percent loss of stands in T plots were statistically similar to CF plots,

suggesting that the externally applied energy created healthier and more vigorous plants, abl e to withstand

unaltered field conditions. Figure 1 shows the differences in chlorophyll content between treatments. TF and T

plots were observed to have statistically higher chlorophyll content than CF and C treatments.Chlorophyll

content is largely determined by plant nutrition, health status, and exposure to sunlight (i.e. conversion of

protochlorophyllide to chlorophyll); however, all plants in the study received the same amount of sun exposure,

suggesting that the energy treatment had changed certain physiological processes which are beyond the scope of

this study. TF plots were observed to have the greatest number and weight of marketable lettuce heads than any

other treatment, and a greater amount of large (18s) and medium (24s) heads were harvested from these plots as

well (Table 2). TF and CF received the same amounts and types of fertilizers and pesticides, yet yield and

quality was approximately 43% greater in the TF plots. Further, Figure 2 shows that the TF treatment resulted in

a statistically higher total of percent marketable heads compared to all other treatments. If the energy transmitted

is generating change in metabolic processes to the plants, this may explain why TF plots exceeded yield and

quality amounts of T plots, enabling a greater intake of fertilizer nutrients and thereby creating stronger and

The present research work investigated the inuence of bio-eld treatment on two common avoring agents used

in food industries namely beef extract powder (BEP) and meat infusion powder (MIP). The treated powders were

characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), particle size analysis,

surface area analysis, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The FT-IR

results showed disappearance of triglycerides peaks in both the treated powders as compared to control. XRD

results corroborated the amorphous nature of both control and treated samples. The BEP showed enhanced average

It was assumed that enormous energy was stored in MIP after bio-eld treatment that led to fracture into smaller

particles. The surface area was increased in both the treated powders. DSC result showed signicant increase in

melting temperature, in BEP and MIP, which indicated the higher thermal stability of the samples. However, the

specic heat capacity (∆H) was decreased in both samples, which was probably due to high energy state of the

powders.

Beef is known to have excellent nutritional value and it has been

widely consumed in many countries. e prominent reason for this

high food value is its strongest peroxide forming potential due to its

excellent myoglobin and haem levels [1,2]. Beef extract powder (BEP)

is highly concentrated meat stock and has been used in food industry

as a avouring agent in cooking and to prepare broth for drinks [3]. It

has been used since many years as a food additive and taste enhancer

in food technological applications. On the other hand, meat infusion

powder (MIP) has been used as a microbial growth medium and

Coronory heart disease (CHD) is the main cause of death in western

countries. e life style and genetic backgrounds are two important

factors, which aects the mortality in CHD. e elevated level of

triglycerides is one of the main reasons for CHD. e factors such as

obesity, insulin resistance, excessive alcohol consumption, diabetes, and

kidney disease also causes risk of high triglycerides [5]. Moreover, the

red meat such as beef and less dark meat chicken also have the higher

triglycerides. Previously, it was suggested that removing triglycerides

from cooked meat aects the aroma and thus it can aect the quality of

the beef meat [6]. Hence, reducing the triglyceride content will directly

improve the health and it will improve the quality of the meat products.

Currently, no alternative and cost eective approaches are available to

alter the content of triglycerides, but bio-eld treatment may be a new

approach to change the physiochemical properties of powders made

from these meat products.

In physics, energy is a property of objects that can be transmitted

to other objects and changed into dierent forms but neither can be

created or destroyed [7]. According to Einstein's equation (E=mc2 )

the energy and matter are fundamentally related to each other [8].

Nonetheless, the energy is a eld of force which can signicantly

interact with any object at a distance and cause action. Furthermore, the

energy can exists in several forms such as kinetic, potential, electrical,

magnetic, and nuclear. Researchers have shown that short lived

electrical events or action potential exists in several types of animal

cells such as neurons, muscle cells, endocrine cells as well as plant cells.

e human nervous system consist the energy/information in the form

of electrical signals [9,10]. Whenever, these electrical signals uctuate

with time, the magnetic eld generates as per the Ampere-Maxwell

law, and cumulatively known as electromagnetic eld. Hence, the

electromagnetic eld being generated from the human body is known

Mr. Trivedi is known to exert prominent eects on external

surrounding using his unique bio-eld, herein referred as Bio-eld

treatment. Recently, it was investigated that bio-eld treatment

can signicantly change the characteristics of living and non-living

organisms. Subjecting bio-eld treatment on metals and ceramics

caused signicant changes in crystalline, thermal, and atomic

properties [12-19]. It has been recently published that the eect of

bio-eld treatment resulted in signicant improvement of the yield

and quality of various agriculture products [20-23]. e said bio-eld

exposure caused an increase in growth and anatomical characteristics

of an herb Pogostemon cablin that is commonly used in perfumes, in

incense/insect repellents, and alternative medicine [24]. Moreover,

in microbiology, bio-eld treatment has also changed the antibiotic

susceptibility patterns as well as produced biochemical reactions that

induced changes in the characteristics of pathogenic microbes [25-27].

Having inspired by these excellent results, in present study, an

attempt was made to investigate the physicochemical properties of BEP

and MIP that were exposed to the said Bio-eld. e bio-eld treated

powders were thoroughly characterized by FT-IR, XRD, DSC, TGA,

CHNSO, and particle size analysis.

e BEP and MIP were procured from HiMedia Laboratories Pvt

Ltd, India. e samples were grouped into two parts; one was kept

as a control sample, while the remaining part was subjected to Mr.

Trivedi's bio-eld treatment and coded as treated sample. Aer that,

all the samples (control and treated) were characterized with respect

to FT-IR, CHNSO, XRD, particle size analysis, surface area analysis,

Fourier transforms infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy: e infrared

spectra of BEP and MIP were recorded with FT-IR spectrometer

(Perkin Elmer, USA). IR spectrum was recorded in the range of 4000

CHNSO analysis: e BEP and MIP were analyzed for their

elemental composition (C,H,N,S, and O). e powdered samples were

subjected to CHNSO Analyzer using Model Flash EA 1112 Series,

X-ray diraction (XRD) study: XRD of BEP and MIP were

analyzed using Phillips Holland PW 1710 X-ray diractometer system.

e wavelength of the radiation was 1.54056 angstrom. e data was

obtained in the form of 2θ versus intensity (a.u) chart. e obtained

data was used for calculation of crystallite size using the following

formula.

Crystallite size= kλ/b Cos θ

Where, λ is the wavelength and k is the equipment constant (0.94).

Particle size analysis: e average particle size and particle size

distribution were analyzed using Sympetac Helos-BF Laser Particle

Size Analyzer with a detection range of 0.1 µm to 875µm. Average

calculated using following formula.

Percentage change in d50 size=100 × (d50 treated- d50 control)/ d50

control.

Percentage change in d99 size=100 × (d99 treated- d99 control)/ d99

Surface area analysis: e surface area of BEP and MIP were

characterized using Surface Area Analyzer, SMART SORB 90 BET

(Brunauer-Emmett-Teller), which had a detection range of 0.1-100

Dierential scanning calorimetry (DSC) study: e BEP and

MIP were used for DSC study. e samples were analyzed using a

Pyris-6 Perkin Elmer DSC on a heating rate of 10ºC/min under oxygen

ermo gravimetric analysis (TGA): ermal stability of the BEP

and MIP were analyzed using Metller Toledo simultaneous TGA. e

samples were heated from room temperature to 400ºC with a heating

rate of 5ºC/min under oxygen atmosphere.

e FT-IR spectrum of control and bio-eld treated samples are

illustrated in Figure 1. e IR spectrum of control and BEP showed

(Figure 1) prominent vibration bands at 1760 cm-1 (-C=O) and

1151 cm-1 (-C-O) due to presence of triglycerides peak stretching in

the sample. Other important peaks were observed at 2895 and 2817

cm-1 which can be attributed to C-H stretching vibration peaks. e

spectrum showed peaks at 1635 and 1587 cm-1 attributed to presence of

characteristic protein bands such as amide-I and amide -II stretching

vibration peaks [28-31]. Another peak was observed at 3078 to

3780.2 cm-1 attributed to -OH stretching vibration peak. e treated

sample showed considerable change in FT-IR spectrum (Figure 1).

We observed that the presence of triglycerides peak of -C=O (1760

result showed that the bio-eld treatment, probably removed the fatty

triglycerides components from the treated BEP. Additionally, it was

also observed that the characteristic -OH/-NH stretching vibration

peaks were reduced to lower wavenumbers 3064 cm-1 ,which indicated

the formation of strong intermolecular hydrogen bonding in the

treated sample [32,33]. ese results suggest that bio-eld treatment

has induced structural changes in the treated sample.

e FT-IR spectrum of control and treated MIP are presented in

Figure 2. e FT-IR of control powder showed (Figure 2) important

peaks at 1689 and 1589 cm-1 due to amide-I and amide-II stretching

vibration peaks, respectively. Other important peaks were observed

at 1760 and 1157cm-1 for C=O and C-O group, respectively due to

triglycerides. However, these two peaks were completely disappeared

in treated MIP (Figure 2) which indicated that bio-eld treatment

aected chemical changes in the treated sample.

Table 1 shows the results of CHNSO analysis of BEP and MIP.

e treated BEP showed substantial changes in terms of elemental

composition of the treated sample. e treated BEP showed 5.05%

increase in nitrogen as compared to control. e oxygen percentage

was increased by 3.82% in the treated BEP as compared to control. e

carbon percentage was also improved by 2.09% as compared to control

sample. Moreover, the treated BEP showed the presence of sulphur

element; however no trace of sulphur was found in control sample.

e presence of sulphur might play a crucial role in preserving the

comminuted meat products [34]. is data showed that the bio-eld

treatment led to change the elemental composition in BEP.

Whereas the treated MIP showed small percentage change in

nitrogen (0.77%) as compared to control powder. However, carbon and

hydrogen percentage was decreased by 1.22% and 7.13%, respectively

in the treated sample as compared to control. It was observed that there

was a signicant change in oxygen percentage in treated MIP (24.48%)

as compared to control sample. e treated MIP showed some trace

of sulphur (0.27%) though no sulphur was found in control sample.

All together, the CHNSO results conrmed that bio-eld treatment

signicantly changed the elemental percentage in treated samples.

e XRD diractogram of control and treated BEP sample are

illustrated in Figure 3, where, a and b represented to control and

treated sample respectively. e XRD showed the amorphous nature of

the control sample (Figure 3a) with a broad halo at 2θ equals to 20.0°.

e XRD of treated BEP did not reveal (Figure 3b) any dierences in

X-ray pattern of the sample. e treated samples also showed the broad

amorphous nature which was probably due to less ordered atomic

arrangement in the sample. e X-ray diractogram of control and

treated MIP are presented in Figures 4a and 4b. e Figure 4a showed

a broad amorphous peak at 2θ equals to 22° and Figure 4b showed

similar XRD pattern with no change in peak position. Amorphous

materials due to random or irregular arrangement in atoms show

broad and diused peaks [35].

Particle size and surface area analysis

e particle size analysis was carried out on BEP and MIP. e

results are presented in Figure 5. e control BEP showed d50 value

11.75 μm and d99 value of 85.39 μm respectively. Aer treatment d50

value was increased to 12.42 μm and d99 value was increased to 99.1

BEP was increased by 5.7% and 16.1%, respectively as compared to

control sample (Figure 5). is showed that bio-eld treatment led to

an increase in particle size of the treated samples. It is postulated that

the agglomeration of treated BEP may be due to bio-eld treatment

which causes joining of particle boundaries and hence increase in

0.4% and 18.1% (Figure 6). Here we assume that the treated powder

particles received high bio-eld energy which led to deformation of the

particle boundaries, and hence it caused a reduction in particle size.

e surface area was analyzed by BET analysis and results are

presented in Table 2. e treated BEP showed substantial increase in

surface area (1.291 m2 /g) as compared to control powder (1.027 m2 /g).

is was contrary to our particle size results. e surface area of treated

Global emergence of Pseudomonas fluorescens (P. fluorescens) displays a mechanism of resistance to all

existing antimicrobials. Due to its strong ability to acquire resistance, there is a need of some alternative treatment

strategy. Objective of this study was to investigate the effect of biofield treatment on antimicrobial sensitivity pattern

of P. fluorescens. P. fluorescens cells were procured from MicroBioLogics in sealed packs bearing the American

Type Culture Collection (ATCC 49838) number. Two sets of ATCC samples were taken in this experiment and

denoted as A and B. ATCC-A sample was revived and divided into two groups (Gr) i.e. Gr.I (control) and Gr.II

(revived); likewise, ATCC-B was labeled as Gr.III (lyophilized). Gr.II and III were given biofield treatment and were

measured by MicroScan Walk-Away® system before and after treatment. Parameters studied in experiment were

antimicrobial sensitivity, minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC), biochemical reactions, and biotype number of both

control and treatment groups using MicroScan Walk-Away® system. Experimental results showed antimicrobials

showed altered sensitivity and MIC values in treated group as compared to control. Biochemical reactions showed

positive reaction in malonate, melibiose, nitrate, galactosidase, ornithine, raffinose, sorbitol, sucrose, tobramycin and

Voges-Proskauer in Gr.II. Arabinose, colistin, glucose, and rhaminose also showed positive reactions in Gr.II on day

10 while arginine and cetrimide showed negative reaction in Gr.III as compared to control. Biochemical tests results

revealed a change in biotype number in Gr.II (34101173, day 5), (77103177, a very rare biotype on day 10) and

Gr.III (40000043) as compared to control (02041722). Organism was identified as Enterobacter cloacae (GrII, day

10) and Vibrio fluvialis (Gr.III, day 10) with respect to control. These findings suggest that biofield treatment made

significant alteration in sensitivity pattern, MIC values, and biotype number of P. fluorescens.

obligate aerobic, and considered as a psychrotrophic microorganism,

unable to grow at temperatures above 32°C. Fluorescent species of

pseudomonas, initially considered to be nonpathogenic for human.

Since 1953, human pathogenicity has been reported, when Pittman

describes its presence and characteristics in blood and caused severe to

opportunistic pathogen, and able to inhabit in many environment like

P.

have been reported for high hemolytic activity, which

also resides in the plant's rhizosphere

and produces a variety of secondary metabolites including antibiotics

P.

causing nosocomial infections even higher incidence rate

[3]. Some of these strains found in human digestive

tract with low commensal level while some found in refrigerated food

products with its psychrotrophic characters [4]. Recently, a specific

antigen of was detected in serum of ileal Crohn's disease patient [5].

P.

considered as a pathogenic microorganism. Different antimicrobial

combination therapies are preferred by microbiologist to alter its

sensitivity but due to their associated side effects, alternate approaches

are adopted by healthcare professionals. Among various alternate and

complementary therapies, biofield might be a new approach to do

permeates and surrounds living organisms. It is the scientifically

preferred term for the biologically produced electromagnetic and

functions within the organism. In spite of countless study reports of

the effectiveness of biofield therapies [6], there are very few well

controlled and peer-reviewed experimental studies [7]. According to

law of mass-energy inter-conversion [8], the conversion of mass into

energy is well stabilized, but its inversion i.e. energy into mass is not

yet proved scientifically. Whenever these electrical signals fluctuate

with time, the magnetic field generates as per the Ampere-Maxwell

law, and cumulatively known as electromagnetic field. As responses by

humans can be accounted for by the placebo effect, these experiments

on lower organisms are designed in order to directly test the impact of

biofield energy through scientific studies to rule out the placebo effect.

It is widely accepted that lyophilization is the most preferred method

to store and transport microbial cultures. Therefore, changes in the

biochemical and enzymatic characteristics of an organism cannot be

possible at this storage condition. Mr. Mahendra Trivedi's biofield

treatment has been studied significantly and its effects are considerably

microbes against tested antimicrobials [9-11]. However, researchers

found significant inhibitory effect of biofield in different cancer cell

models [12-14]. It has also shown significantly altered the crystalline

and powder characteristics of metals [15,16]. In agriculture, biofield

treated crops have been reported for a significant change on growth,

characteristics and yield of plants [17-19].

There are scanty reports on investigating biofield therapies against

microbes. In the present study, impact of biofield treatment on

P.

was evaluated and its antimicrobial susceptibility pattern,

MIC value, biochemical reactions, and biotype were studied in revived

as compared to control.

ATCC 49838 (American Type Culture Collection)

strains were procured from MicroBioLogics, Inc., USA, in two sets A

and B. The antimicrobials and biochemical used in the study were

procured from Sigma-Aldrich. Two different sealed packs were stored

with proper storage conditions until further use. The antimicrobial

estimated with the help of Microscan Walk-Away system® (Dade

Behring Siemens) using NBPC30 panel with respect to control groups.

Two ATCC samples (ATCC A and B) of

grouped and subjected to biofield treatment. ATCC A sample was

revived and divided into two groups (Gr) viz. Gr.I (control) and Gr.II

(revived); likewise, ATCC B was labeled as Gr.III (lyophilized). Then

group II and III were treated with Mr. Trivedi's biofield energy. Gr.II

was assessed on the 5th and 10th days after treatment while Gr.III was

assessed on 10th day only. Finally, all the groups (control and treated)

reactions pattern and biotyping.

Antimicrobial susceptibility assay

Antimicrobial susceptibility pattern of

using MicroScan Walk-Away® using NBPC30 panel as per

susceptibility pattern (S: Susceptible, I: Intermediate, and R: Resistant)

and minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) were determined by

observing the change in antimicrobial concentration as per Clinical

and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI) guidelines [20].

Biochemical reaction and biotype number studies

organism identification after biofield treatment of

biochemical reactions patterns after biofield treatment were analyzed

using following 33 biochemical such as acetamide, adonitol, arabinose,

arginine, cetrimide, cephalothin, citrate, colistin, esculin, hydrolysis,

nitrofurantoin, glucose, hydrogen sulfide, indole, inositol, kanamycin,

sorbitol, sucrose, tartarate, tryptophan deaminase, tobramycin, urea,

Antimicrobial susceptibility assay

The data pertaining to the antimicrobial susceptibility tests and

details of MIC values were observed and reported in Table 1 and 2

respectively. The result of biofield treatment showed that sensitivity

pattern of ceftriaxone and tetracycline converted from I → R Gr.II on

day 5 and 10. Ceftazidime, ciprofloxacin and piperacillin, converted

from S → R in Gr.II on day 5 and 10 with changes in MIC values as

compared to control. Cefotaxime sensitivity pattern changed from I →

R in Gr.II while in cefepime, changed from I → R only at day 10 in

Gr.II. Tobramycin sensitivity pattern after treatment converted from S

→ I with altered MIC value on day 5 while S → R on day 10 in Gr.II. In

case of norfloxacin, change in MIC value was reported greater than 8

µg/mL in Gr.II as compared with control. Rest of tested antimicrobials

did not showed any change in susceptibility pattern and MIC values

after biofield treatment as compared to control (Table 2).

It's not often that Metal Powder Report departs from

the path of hard facts into the somewhat 'mushier'

area of metaphysics, but opportunities crop up.

While recognising that science has its fair share of

charlatans, one such opportunity was presented

by a paper submitted by an Indian researcher in

which he details work aimed at probing the effects

on powder samples where changes were apparently

generated by thought. Some will laugh, others will

cry, but perhaps among our readers there are those

who might be able to help elucidate further the

metallic solids due to two

's' and 'p' electrons as well as vacant

electron positions in their outer most

shell, these form metallic bonds. The

outer atomic shells overlap causing elec-

trons to delocalise and hold the now

remaining positive atomic/ionic cores

in fixed arrangement. This would mean

that the electrons continuously move as

if they are a cloud or gas among posi-

tively charged atoms. Thus the metal-

lic bond is flexible and gives metals

the characteristic malleability, ductility,

thermal conductivity and electrical con-

When the outer shells of the condens-

ing atoms possess uncoupled (single elec-

trons), these form covalent bonds by cou-

pling with the electrons of opposite spin

in the outer shells of the neighbouring

atoms. Thus the covalent bonds are strong

giving rise to high strength, high hardness,

brittleness, high melting/ decomposition

temperature, electrical insulation and low

reactivity.

The transition elements exhibit mixed

metallic and covalent bonding combining

the best properties of pure metals and pure

covalent ceramics. The overlap of 's' and

'p' electrons form metallic bonds while

the lone 'd' or 'f' electrons form covalent

Apart from atoms and molecules the

next smallest materials available are

powders. These could be single crys-

talline or polycrystalline the particle

size of which is in the micrometric or

nano metric range (<100nm) [1 and 2].

Particles exhibit fine microstructures

and can contain such a high density of

defects (point defects, dislocations, sub

(crystallite) boundaries, grain bounda-

ries, inter phase boundaries, etc.) that

the spacing between neighboring defects

in nano powders can approach the inter

atomic distance [3]. As the grain size

becomes smaller and smaller, a larger

and larger fraction of atoms resides on

the single crystal grain boundaries (at

a 6nm grain size, nearly half the atoms

reside on the grain boundaries), thus

the behaviour of nano-sized powders is

often dominated by events at the grain

Due to the extremely small size of the

grains and a large fraction of the atoms

located at the grain boundaries, these

materials have properties like higher

strength/hardness, enhanced diffusivity,

improved ductility/toughness, reduced

elastic modulus, increased specific

heat, higher electrical resistivity, higher

thermal expansion coefficient, lower

thermal conductivity, and superior mag-

netic properties much improved over

those exhibited by conventional grain

sized (>10μm) polycrystalline materi-

Both micrometre and nanometre sized

powders are produced by methods like

mechanical milling [5], inert gas conden-

sation, spray conversion process, chemi-

cal processes [6], and electro deposition

[1 ], etc. Often mechanical milling is

used for synthesis of fine and nano-

sized powders in bulk quantities using

simple equipment and at room tempera-

ture [2]. During this process, the metal

powder particles are subjected to severe

mechanical deformation from collisions

with the milling tools. Consequently,

plastic deformation at high strain rates

(103-104 s−1) occurs within the particles

and the average grain size can be reduced

to a few nanometers after extended mill-

ing [7][8]. Plastic deformation gener-

ally occurs by slip and twinning at low

and moderate strain rates, while at high

strain rates it occurs by the formation

of shear bands, consisting of dense net-

works of dislocations. The plastic strain

in the material increases due to increas-

ing dislocation density in the early stages

of ball milling. At a threshold dislocation

density, even at moderately elevated tem-

peratures, the material relaxes into sub

grains separated by low-angle bounda-

ries, leading to a decrease of atomic level

strain. During subsequent milling the

process of high deformation/sub grain

formation is repeated resulting in the

sub grains becoming finer and finer, and

the relative orientation of the sub grains

with respect to each other ultimately

becoming completely random. Once

the sub grains reach a critical level of

refinement, further refinement becomes

virtually impossible since the stresses

required for dislocation movement are

enormously high due to the Hall-Petch

strengthening. Thus nano sized powders

with a minimum grain size are produced

[2 ]. Titanium powders of about 2 μ

particle size when subjected to high ener-

gy attrition milling in an argon atmos-

phere after 15 hours of milling yielded

an average particle size of 35 nm has

been obtained [9]. Thus it is now pos-

sible to produce large quantities of ultra

fine and nano powders by high energy

In the present investigation we report

the use of an unknown and subtle energy

(through thought intervention) on various

transition metal powders obtained from

reputed suppliers. The effect of this energy

on particle size and crystallite size and the

possible causes for the observed changes

Metal powders belonging to first series

of transition metals were selected for the

investigation. One portion of these was

kept as a control/standard sample while

the other portions were exposed to Mr
