    Blue Light Destroys Antibiotic-Resistant Staph Infection

    Staphylococcus aureus.
    by Staff Writers
    New Rochelle NY (SPX) Feb 06, 2009
    Two common strains of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, commonly known as MRSA
    , were virtually eradicated in the laboratory by exposing them to a wavelength of blue light, in a process called photo-irradiation that is described in a paper published online ahead of print in Photomedicine and Laser Surgery.

    The article will appear in the April 2009 issue (Volume 27, Number 2) of the peer-reviewed journal published by Mary Ann Liebert.

    Antibiotic-resistant bacterial infections
    represent an important and increasing public health threat. At present, fewer than 5% of staphylococcal strains are susceptible to penicillin, while approximately 40%-50% of Staph aureus isolated have developed resistance to newer semisynthetic antibiotics such as methicillin as well.

    Chukuka S. Enwemeka, Deborah Williams, Sombiri K. Enwemeka, Steve Hollosi, and David Yens from the New York Institute of Technology (Old Westbury, NY) had previously demonstrated that photo-irradiation using 405-nm light destroys MRSA strains grown in culture. In the current study, "Blue 470-nm Light Kills Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) in Vitro," the authors exposed bacterial colonies of MRSA to various doses of 470-nm light, which emits no UV radiation.

    The two MRSA populations studied-the US-300 strain of CA-MRSA and the IS-853 strain of HA-MRSA-represent prominent community-acquired and hospital-acquired strains, respectively.

    The authors report that the higher the dose of 470-nm blue light, the more bacteria were killed. High-dose photo-irradiation was able to destroy 90.4% of the US-300 colonies and the IS-853 colonies. The effectiveness of blue light in vitro suggests that it should also be effective in human cases of MRSA infection, and particularly in cutaneous and subcutaneous infections.

    "It is inspiring that an inexpensive naturally visible wavelength of light can eradicate two common strains of MRSA. Developing strategies that are capable of destroying MRSA, using mechanisms that would not lead to further antibiotic resistance, is timely and important for us and our patients," says Chukuka S. Enwemeka, PhD, FACSM, Co-Editor-in-Chief of the Journal and first author of the study.

    Rev 17:4 And the woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet colour, and decked with gold and precious stones and pearls, having a golden cup in her hand full of abominations and filthiness of her fornication:

    The Bible even tells us the spiritual meaning of the color blue:


    Num 15:38 Speak unto the children of Israel, and bid them that they make them fringes in the borders of their garments throughout their generations, and that they put upon the fringe of the borders a ribband of blue:
    Num 15:39 And it shall be unto you for a fringe, that ye may look upon it, and remember all the commandments of the LORD, and do them; and that ye seek not after your own heart and your own eyes, after which ye use to go a whoring:

    Deu 22:12 Thou shalt make thee fringes upon the four quarters of thy vesture, wherewith thou coverest thyself.



    Why blue? It is understood that the tablets of the Ten Commandments were cut from the clear blue sapphire seen on mount Sinai (Exo 24:10), which makes up the very throne of God (Eze 1:26, 10:1). So, the Ark of the Covenant in the most holy apartment of the sanctuary, the throne of God's presence (the Shekinah glory), contained the blue sapphire tablets of the Ten Commandments.

    So regarding the whoring harlot church, though she claims to be God's representative on earth, the missing color blue in her description indicates that she actively disregards and transgresses the law of God. One of the characteristics of the antichrist power is lawlessness:

     Any artitsts out there who can draw Bishop Williamson with the above mentioned garb and holding a blue light sword in a duel with Darth Vadar (a.k.a. you know who)

    Something to cheer you up.

  •    I like the 1962 pre Vatican II vibe ( when more people  still  had their soul and the happiness was in the music)

    With Love  From Argentina?

       check this out

    I'll never fall in love again (Burt Bacharach)



    What do you get when you fall in love?
    A guy with a pin to burst your bubble
    That's what you get for all your trouble
    I'll never fall in love again
    I'll never fall in love again

    What do you get when you kiss a girl
    You get enough germs to catch pneumonia
    After you do, she'll never phone you
    I'll never fall in love again
    I'll never fall in love again

    Don't tell me what it's all about
    'Cause I've been there and I'm glad I'm out
    Out of those chains those chains that bind you
    That is why I'm here to remind you

    What do you get when you give your heart
    You get it all broken up and battered
    That's what you get, a heart that's shattered
    I'll never fall in love again
    I'll never fall in love again

    Out of those chains those chains that bind you
    That is why I'm here to remind you

    What do you get when you fall in love?
    You only get lies and pain and sorrow
    So for at least until tomorrow
    I'll never fall in love again
    I'll never fall in love again

    I'll never fall in love again
    I'll never fall in love again

    That just shows how un-Texan you are! You're older than me and I'm quite familiar with the entire George Strait collection.

  • I like George Strait myself. He sings without effort and seems like a gentleman. Please don't burst my bubble.
