Geometric Triangular Chiral Hexagon Crystal-Like Complexes Organization in Pathological Tissues Biological Collision Order
The present study describes and documents self-assembly of geometric triangular chiral hexagon crystal like complex organizations (GTCHC) in human pathological tissues.The authors have found this architectural geometric expression at macroscopic and microscopic levels mainly in cancer processes. This study is based essentially on macroscopic and histopathologic analyses of 3000 surgical specimens: 2600 inflammatory lesions and 400 malignant tumours. Geometric complexes identified photographically at macroscopic level were located in the gross surgical specimen, and these areas were carefully dissected. Samples were taken to carry out histologic analysis. Based on the hypothesis of a collision genesis mechanism and because it is difficult to carry out an appropriate methodological observation in biological systems, the authors designed a model base on other dynamic systems to obtain indirect information in which a strong white flash wave light discharge, generated by an electronic device, hits over the lines of electrical conductance structured in helicoidal pattern. In their experimental model, the authors were able to reproduce and to predict polarity, chirality, helicoid geometry, triangular and hexagonal clusters through electromagnetic sequential collisions. They determined that similar events among constituents of extracelular matrix which drive and produce piezoelectric activity are responsible for the genesis of GTCHC complexes in pathological tissues. This research suggests that molecular crystals represented by triangular chiral hexagons derived from a collision-attraction event against collagen type I fibrils emerge at microscopic and macroscopic scales presenting a lateral assembly of each side of hypertrophy helicoid fibers, that represent energy flow in cooperative hierarchically chiral electromagnetic interaction in pathological tissues and arises as a geometry of the equilibrium in perturbed biological systems. Further interdisciplinary studies must be carried out to reproduce, manipulate and amplify their activity and probably use them as a base to develop new therapeutic strategies in cancer

An investigation on structure characterization of thermally stabilized polyacrylonitrile precursor fibers pretreated with guanidine carbonate prior to carbonization
Thermal stabilization of polyacrylonitrile (PAN) precursor fiber was performed with a pretreatment of an aqueous guanidine carbonate solution and its structure was thoroughly characterized using a combination of infrared spectroscopy (IR), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), density, elemental analysis, and X-ray diffraction measurements. The use of guanidine carbonate pretreatment of polyacrylonitrile precursor fiber was found to be very useful for the acceleration of thermal stabilization of polyacrylonitrile precursor fiber prior to the carbonization stage. The results obtained from density, thermal analysis (TGA and DSC), infrared-spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction methods suggested an accelerated thermally stable aromatic ladder structure formation resulting in much reduced thermal stabilization time. X-ray observations showed the transformation of the original structure from a highly ordered phase to a totally disordered amorphous phase which seemed to be a direct consequence of the crosslinked and cyclized structure present in the stabilized fibers. The results obtained from the infrared spectra of thermally stabilized samples showed a rapid and simultaneous cyclization and dehydrogenation reactions aided by the oxygen uptake in the form of oxygen containing functional groups. Guanidine carbonate pretreated and thermally stabilized PAN precursor fibers showed a carbon yield of 52.5% at 1100 degrees C obtained from TGA measurements. The use of guanidine carbonate pretreatment is expected to significantly increase the productivity of carbon fiber manufacturing at a substantially reduced cost by significantly reducing the time necessary for thermal stabilization of polyacryonitrile fiber.
