<strong>BBRS</strong> Science and Medicine A New View of Conquering Cancer 26<br />

That is because it does not actually require any net movement of the charged<br />

particle itself. It is passed rapidly down a line of relatively static, hydrogenbonded<br />

water molecules.<br />

A look inside the Triple Helix Axis of Collagen:<br />

The band structure of collagen<br />

fibers, shown in the following<br />

electron microscopic pictures,<br />

comes from the schematic,<br />

zig-zag structure of collagen<br />

molecules.<br />

* The dashed lines draw the<br />

hydrogen connections;<br />

* The collagen fibers have electric-<br />

and dielectric properties to<br />

incentives to conduct, making them<br />

susceptible for all types of stimuli<br />

* There is a cylinder of water<br />

Surrounding the triple helix, which is a<br />

hydrogen link with the side connections<br />

hydroxyproline;<br />

* This aqueous structure of hydrogen<br />

compounds and proteins, support the<br />

swift leap guides of protons;<br />

Jump conduction of protons<br />

in collagen has been confirmed by<br />

dielectric measurements.<br />

The conductivity of collagen<br />

increases strongly with the amount of water absorbed (from 0.1 to 0.3g/g<br />

collagen). It is estimated that conductivity along the collagen fibres is at least<br />

one-hundred time that across the fibres.<br />

A major factor contributing to the efficiency of intercommunication is<br />

the structured, oriented nature of collagen liquid crystalline fibres.<br />

Each connective tissue has its characteristic orientation of fibrous<br />

structures which are clearly related to the mechanical stresses and<br />

strains to which the tissue is subject.<br />

This same orientation may also be crucial for intercommunication.
