STERILE ORGANIC MATTER MAY PRODUCE MICROBES

Alen J. Salerian MD*

ABSTRACT

Background: Opportunistic infections are infections caused by pathogens that take advantage of humans with compromised immune system. First microorganisms on earth were born from sterile organic matter and a recent experimental study indicated that sterile eggs kept in sterile conditions in ambient temperatures showed evidence of spoilage and fermentation. Objective: The aim of this study is to demonstrate that microorganisms may derive from sterile organic matter. Methods: Three intact eggs in a tightly closed jar were sterilized using standard 2,450-MHz microwave irradiation for 5 minutes, were placed outdoors in ambient conditions for three weeks and were shipped to Anresco labs in San Francisco, CA. Results: A jar /eggs without shells: 670 million Bacillus Pumilus. Discussion: The emergence of 670 million Bacillus Pumilus. from microwave sterilized eggs are consistent with the results of our previous study of spoilage and fermentation of sterile eggs suggesting that sterile organic matter may produce microorganisms. Future studies to validate our findings are necessary. Conclusion: Sterile organic matter may produce microorganisms consistent with the hypothesis that some infections are endogenous.
