LIQUID CRYSTALLINE WATER, QUANTUM MOLECULAR MACHINES & THE LIVING STATE

It has be-en 18 years sin-ce the di-sco-very in my la-bo-ra-tory sug-ge-sting that li-ving or-ga-nisms are dyna-mic li-qu-id crystal-li-ne pha-ses in which all the mo-le-cu-les in the cells and tis-su-es of the body are alig-ned and mo-ving co-he-rently to-get-her, in-clu-ding espe-ci-ally the wa-ter mo-le-cu-les that are in-trin-sic to the li-qu-id crystal-li-ne ma-trix and es-sen-ti-al to the fun-cti-on of mac-ro-mo-le-cu-les. In ef-fect, the or-ga-nism de-pends on a mac-ro-sco-pic qu-an-tum co-he-ren-ce of in-di-vi-du-al mo-le-cu-lar energy mac-hi-nes. Re-cent in-ve-sti-ga-ti-ons using a ran-ge of sop-hi-sti-ca-ted spec-tro-sco-pic tec-hni-qu-es ha-ve in-de-ed re-ve-a-led that the li-qu-id crystal-li-ne (hydra-ti-on) wa-ter forms dyna-mi-cally co-he-rent units with pro-te-ins and nuc-le-ic acids, and ena-bles the mac-ro-mo-le-cu-les to fun-cti-on co-he-rently to-get-her.The sa-me in-ve-sti-ga-ti-ons al-so re-ve-al that ions play the-ir pi-vo-tal ro-le in cel-lu-lar me-ta-bo-lism and sig-nal-ling thro-ugh in-ter-ac-ti-ons with hydra-ti-on wa-ter. De-spi-te the-se ma-jor advan-ces, the ul-ti-ma-te mystery of li-fe re-ma-ins tan-ta-li-zingly beyond our grasp.
