PATHOGEN FREQUENCIES........................................
Living creatures emit a range of frequencies, also called
bandwidth. As they age, the bandwidth shrinks. When they die
sometimes all that is left is a single frequency.
Most of the organisms listed below are dead on commer-
cially available and prepared slides (see Sources for biological
supply companies). However they still exhibit a 5 KHz band-
width, probably due to testing with a frequency generator that
was only accurate to 100 Hz, and also due to using more voltage
than necessary (like when a powerful radio station comes in at its
own frequencies and ones nearby, too). Some testing was done
with a more accurate frequency generator at a lower power level
so some bandwidths are reported much more narrowly.
If the same person retests the same specimens with the same
equipment within a few days, the results will be absolutely
identical (within 1 Hz) 90% of the time. Why a few of the results
will not be identical is not known. However different people,
and even the same person at different times of the year, can
notice that the perceived frequencies shift by as much as 3 KHz
(still less than 1% change).
Some specimens have more than one range listed; this may be
characteristic of the organism or may be due to having an
undocumented organism on the same microscope slide.
Blank locations represent organisms for whom there are
prepared slides available, but whose bandwidth has not been
determined.
