THE IN-VITRO EFFECT OF BIOENERGY ON THE CONFORMATIONAL STATES OF HUMAN DNA IN AQUEOUS-SOLUTIONS

Conformational changes in aqueous solutions of human DNA were used as a new bioassay for bioenergy. Two subjects were tested for their abili ty to direct their intention to either wind or unwinding DNA presented to them in a quartz cuvette. Conformational changes of the DNA soluti ons were assessed by measuring the absorption spectra before and after treatment with bioenergy. The results confirm previous experiments in dicating that focused human intentionality can produce significant cha nges in DNA conformation. The results extend previous studies by demon strating the dynamic changes in DNA conformation over time are complex and dependent on the type of bioenergy generated. Different subjects produced different types of conformational change as indicated by shif ts in the absorption spectra at either 260 nm or 310 nm. In some cases , bioenergy produced a decrease absorption at 260 nm (reflecting DNA w inding) and an increase absorption at 310 nm. This is an anomalous res ponse of DNA to bioenergy indicating the conformational changes observ ed are not due to simple winding and unwinding of the DNA helix.
