high powers of magnification with accompanying high powers of resolution
may be realized with all of the Rife microscopes, one of which, having
magnification and resolution up to 18,000 diameters, is now being used
at the British School of Tropical Medicine in England. In the recent demonstration
of another of the smaller Rife scopes (May 16, 1942) before a group of
doctors including Dr. J.H. Renner, of Santa Barbara, Calif.; Dr. Roger
A. Schmidt, of San Francisco, Calif.; Dr. Lois Bronson Slade, of Alameda,
Calif.; Dr. Lucille B. Larkin, of Bellingham, Wash.; Dr. E.F. Larkin, of
Bellingham, Wash.; and Dr. W.J. Gier, of San Diego, Calif., a Zeiss ruled
grading was examined first under an ordinary commercial microscope equipped
with a 1.8 high dry lens and X 10 ocular, and then under the Rife microscope.
Whereas 50 lines were revealed with the commercial instrument and considerable
aberration, both chromatic and spherical noted, only 5 lines were seen
with the Rife scope, these 5 lines being so highly magnified that they
occupied the entire field, without any aberration whatsoever being apparent.
Dr. Renner, in a discussion of his observations, stated that " The entire
field to its very edge and across the center had a uniform clearness that
was not true in the conventional instrument." Following the examination
of the grading, an ordinary unstained blood film was observed under the
same two microscopes. In this instance, 100 cells were seen to spread throughout
the field of the commercial instrument while but 10 cells filled the field
of the Rife scope.
The universal microscope, of course, is the most powerful Rife scope, possessing a resolution of 31,00 diameters and a magnification of 60,000 diameters. With this it is possible to view the interior of the "pin-point" cells, those cells situated between the normal tissue cells and just visible under the ordinary microscope, and to observe the smaller cells which compose the interior of these pin-point cells. When one of these smaller cells is magnified, still smaller cells are seen within its structure. And when one of the still smaller cells, in its turn, is magnified, it, too, is seen to be composed of smaller cells. Each of the 16 times this process of magnification and resolution can be repeated, it is demonstrated that there are smaller cells within the smaller cells, a fact which amply testifies as to the magnification and resolving power obtainable with the universal microscope. More than 20,000 laboratory cultures of carcinoma were grown and studied over a period of 7 years by Dr. Rife and his assistants in what, at the time, appeared to be fruitless effort to isolate the filter-passing form, or virus, which Dr. Rife believed to be present in this condition. Then, in 1932, the reactions in growth of bacterial cultures to light from rare gases was observed, indicating a new approach to the problem. Accordingly, blocks of tissue one-half centimeter square, taken from an unulcerated breast carcinoma, were placed in triple-sterilized K Medium and these cultures incubated at 37 degrees C> When no results were forthcoming, the culture tubes were placed in a circular glass loop filled with argon gas to a pressure of 14 millimeters, and a current of 5,000 volts applied for 24 hours, after which the tubes were placed in a 2-inch water vacuum and incubated at 37 degrees C. for 24 hours. Using a specially designed 1.12 dry lens, equal in amplitude of magnification to the 2-mm. apochromatic oil-immersion lens, the cultures were then examined under the universal microscope, at a magnification of 10,000 diameters, where very much animated, purplish-red, filterable forms, measuring less than one-twentieth of a micron in dimension, were observed. Carried through 14 transplants from K Medium to K Medium, this B.X. virus remained constant; inoculated into 426 Albino rats, tumors "with all the true pathology of neoplastic tissue" were developed. Experiments conducted in the Rife Laboratories have established the fact that these characteristic diplococci are found in the blood monocytes in 92 percent of all cases of neoplastic diseases. It has also been demonstrated that the virus of cancer, like the viruses of other diseases, can be easily changed from one form to another by means of altering the media upon which it is grown. With the first change in media, the B.X. virus becomes considerably enlarged although its purplish-red color remains unchanged. Observation of the organism with an ordinary microscope is made possible by a second alteration of the media. A third change is undergone upon asparagus base media where the B.X. virus is transformed from its filterable state into cryptomyces pleomorphia fungi, these fungi being identical morphologically both macroscopically and microscopically to that of the orchid and of the mushroom. And yet a fourth change may be said to take place when this cryptomyces pleomorphia, permitted to stand as a stock culture for the period of metastasis, becomes the well-known mahogany-colored Bacillus coli. It is Dr. Rife's belief that all micro-organisms fall into 1 of not more than 10 individual groups (Dr. Rosenow has stated that some of the viruses belong to the group of the streptococcus), and that any alteration of artificial media or slight metabolic variation in tissues will induce an organism of one group to change over to any other organism included in that same group, it being possible, incidentally, to carry such changes in media or tissues to the point where the organisms fail to respond to standard laboratory methods of diagnosis. These changes can be made to take place in as short a period of time as 48 hours. For instance, by altering the media - 4 parts per million per volume - the pure culture of mahogany-colored Bacillus coli becomes the turquoise-blue Bacillus typhosus. Viruses or primordial cells of organisms which would ordinarily require an 8-week incubation period to attain their filterable state, have been shown to produce disease within 3 days' time, proving Dr. Rife's contention that the incubation period of a micro-organism is really only a cycle of reversion. He states: "In reality, it is not the bacteria themselves that produce the disease, but we believe it is the chemical constituents of these micro-organisms enacting upon the unbalanced cell metabolism of the human body that in actuality produce the disease. We also believe if the metabolism of the human body is perfectly balanced or poised, it is susceptible to no disease. |
