DIELECTRICS — and the early detection of disease A new era in diagnostics has arrived with a device that can detect disease before any physical signs appear. n Sth February 1994 at the Sydney World Trade Fair, advanced instrumentation for the early identification of disease, including cancer and AIDS, wasintro- duced to the public by Sydney-based Taubert Technologies Pty Ltd. The Dielectric Diagnostic Analyser (DDA), developed by eminent biophysicist, Dr Sergei Barsamian, director of S&S Biophysics Laboratory, is the only one of its kind in the world employing sensitive computerised techniques to reveal electromagnetic (EM) disturbances in the cytoplasm (the protoplasm outside the nucleus) of living cells. Information obtained from electrode sensors is fed to a device that automatically moni- tors the energetic condition of the cell which is then presented for assessment on a com- puter readout. The term ‘dielectric’ refers to a non-conductor of electrical currents. Cells, being dielec- tric in nature, are therefore non-conductors of currents but are controlled by EM fields. As information-carrying EM fields direct and organise all molecular or chemical activities in the biophysical system, the DDA is thus able to determine the very beginning of the development of a disease even before its clinical or physical appearance, which should be seen as a secondary effect. appear. d e te ct In order to gain a clear picture of the principles underpinning the DDA's method, it is best to look first at some earlier ag well as current concepts and findings relating to EM e energy fields and their role in the process of morphogenesis, or the evolutionary develop- d I Ss Ca S e ment of an organism. A field is to be understood as a region of space characterised by a physical property. before an The idea of ‘fields of influence’ laid down by Jan Christiaan Smuts (1870-1950), a y founder and one-time prime minister of the Union of South Africa, in his book, Holism ° ° and Evolution (1926), provides one of the earliest insights into energy fields and holism to physical Signs arise in this century. He writes: "Every ‘thing' has its field. Every concept has likewise its field. It is in these fields only that things really happen. It is the intermingling of fields which is creative or causal in nature. The hard, secluded concrete thing or concept is barren, and but for its field it could never come into real contact or into active or creative relations with any other thing or concept. Things, ideas, animals, plants, persons; all these, like physical forces, have their fields, and but for their fields they would be unintelligible, their activities impossible, their relations barren and sterile. In isolating things and ideas apart from their fields, and treating the latter as non-existent, has made the world of matter and life inexplicable. "The organism and its field is one continuous structure, and in this continuum is con- tained all of the past which has been conserved and still operates to influence the present and the future of the organism; in it is contained all that the organism is and does in the present; and finally, in it is contained all that the organism vaguely points to in its own ©1994 by Mark Balfour future development and that of its offspring.
