This is from my MDR thread:
What are Nanobacteria ?
The term Nanobacteria is short for its scientific genus and species name Nanobacterium sanguineum, a Latin scientific term that means blood nanobacteria. Nanobacteria are nano-sized in that they are from 20-200 nanometers in size and are the smallest known self-replicating bacteria (a nanometer is 1 billionth of a meter and is approximately the width of ten hydrogen atoms side-to-side).
Nanobacterium sanguineum is recognized as an emerging infectious disease.
Chronic inflammatory responses are seen in areas where nanobacteria are found. Nanobacteria can infect any tissue or cell and have even been photographed actively killing T-6 Lymphocytes, an important component of our immune defense system.
Nanobacteria are extremely small, slowly growing bacteria that can be cultured from the blood of humans and mammals. When compared to regular bacteria, these Nanobacteria are 1/100 to 1/1,000 the size, allowing them to easily move around into other cells and invade/infect them. Nanobacteria have the ability to kill human tissue cells, human immune system cells and other bacteria. Nanobacterial infection can cause alteration of cellular RNA and DNA gene-expression patterns in infected cells... this process can lead to genetic alteration, abnormal cell growth or proliferation rates.
The nanobacteria-secreted calcium biofilm hardens around the nanobacteria forming a hard calcium apatite protective shell. In the calcified state, nanobacteria can either reproduce upon themselves forming aggregate budding-like clusters or they can just remain in a state of calcified dormancy. Our body does not recognize dormant calcified nanobacteria as a foreign substance or pathogen.
When in calcified form, our bodies see nanobacteria as common calcium, a substance found throughout our bodies at all times. It is ONLY when they secrete their irritating endotoxic biofilm that our immune system becomes alarmed and responds with inflammation.
Dormant Nanobacteria have the ability to be dormant and to become active at a later time.
NanobacLabs now has available the nanobacTEST-S, the only blood test for Nanobacteria Antigen and Antibodies. The NanobacTEST-S checks for active nanobacterial infection and/or recent exposure to nanobacteria. NanobacLabs also has the NanobacTEST-U/A, a rapid urine screening test for nanobacteria that can be done in a doctor's office with results available in minutes.
Nanobacteria have been isolated from IPV polio vaccine, Human Immune Gamma Globulin (IgG), Fetal Bovine Serum (FBS) and are therefore expected as potential contaminants in other human biologicals made with FBS. Nanobacteria are known to cause infections in humans, cattle, deer and are suspected to be infectious agents in other mammals.
Chronic inflammatory responses are seen in areas where nanobacteria are found. Nanobacteria can infect any tissue or cell and have even been photographed actively killing T-6 Lymphocytes, an important component of our immune defense system.
Nanobacteria has been shown by multiple scientific researchers to be the cause of pathological (disease-causing) calcification deposits in humans and mammals.If you have calcification deposits in your body that you were not born with, they are probably secondary to a nanobacterial infection. Some of the diseases involved with pathological calcification deposits are: Atherosclerotic Plaque, Coronary Artery Disease, Heart Plaque, Kidney Stones, Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD), Cataracts, Glaucoma, CREST, Scleroderma, Psoriasis, Eczema, Lichen planus,
Liver Cysts, Breast Calcification, Prostate Calcification, Dental Plaque, Periodontal Disease, Dental Pulp Stones, Arthritis, Fibromyalgia, Brain Sand and some Cancers.
Only nanobacteria cause tissue calcifications that grow at sub-saturation tissue levels.When explained to most physicians, their general response has been profound.
www.hbci.com/~wenonah/history/rife.htmNanobacteria cause a "false positive" on Chlamydia ELISA testing. Since researchers have not cultured Chlamydia from atherosclerotic plaque after much effort, it seems probable that the positive Chlamydia ELISA tests were actually caused by Nanobacterium sanguineum.
Most human biologicals and vaccines are made in fetal bovine serum, a medium that is known to be contaminated with nanobacteria.
Also read how Vitamin C can help control Nanobacteria:
www.hbci.com/~wenonah/new/howfindv.htm#vit-cVitamin C in excess of our body's cellular needs provides the function of a chelating agent removing harmful materials such as lead from our bodies. You would need to consume about 20 grams of Vitamin C a day for a couple of weeks to realize any toxic symptoms.
[ Citric Acid is another chelating agent that Nature provides for this purpose. So, keep a good amount of citrus fruits in your diet. Citrus also has bioflavonoids*, which are needed to help Vitamin C properly perform its functions. ]
{ * Bioflavonoids: a derivative of a flavone compound that helps maintain the capillary walls, reducing the likelihood of hemorrhaging......GRAPEFRUITSEEDEXTRACT!!
Other studies that have reported supposedly harmful effects, have failed to realize that Vitamin C doesn't work alone in all cases. Bioflavonoids are required for Vitamin C to perform many of its functions and administering Vitamin C at high levels without providing its co–workers can account for the observations they made.
Mercury has a greater affinity to Vitamin C that is present in the blood than it does for body tissue. Therefore, it provides a measure of protection against mercury poisoning. ....AMALGAM!!!
And Salt:

EDTA as an Anionic Surfactant (Disodium Ethylene–Diamine–Tetra–Acetate
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disodium_inosinateEthylenediaminetetraäcetic acid* ("EDTA") is a synthetic amino acid and was first used in the 1940's for treatment of heavy metal poisoning. It is widely recognized as effective for that use as well as certain others, including emergency treatment of hypercalcemia and the control of ventricular arrhythmias associated with digitalis toxicity.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EDTAIts prominence as a chelating agent arises from its ability to "sequester" di- and tricationic metalions such as Ca2+ and Fe3+. After being bound by EDTA, metal ions remain in solution but exhibit diminished reactivity.
Today, EDTA is mainly synthesised from ethylenediamine (1,2-diaminoethane), formaldehyde (methanal), and sodium cyanide.[2] This route yields the sodium salt, which can be converted in a subsequent step into the acid forms
Medicine
EDTA is used to bond metal ions in chelation therapy, e.g. for mercury (performs poorly) and lead poisoning.[10] Similarly it is used to remove excess iron from the body.
Dentists used EDTA solutions to remove inorganic debris (smear layer) and prepare root canals for obturation.
In the laboratory, EDTA is widely used for scavenging metal ions: in biochemistry and molecular biology, ion depletion is commonly used to deactivate metal-dependent enzymes, either as an assay for their reactivity or to suppress damage to DNA or proteins.
The fully dissolved EDTA is then usually mixed with Ascorbic Acid to adjust the solution pH to the proper level for use as an IV additive.
Ascorbic Acid also has four OH– groups and will form stable metal salts, thus helping to bind "Free Radicals" and can provide a chelating function also.
A properly mixed and diluted solution of EDTA and Vitamin C can also be given orally*.
Nanobacteria.. biofilm producing....protectiv shell...feeding on heavy metals...Ascorbic acid and Salt....Detoxification.
This all sounds familiar to me. Marc mentioned Biofilms with hardening shells on his site.
Could be that this is the reason why the VitaminC/Salt protocol works against Morgellons..(for me it did) together with detox and immune system boosting.?
The symptoms of Nanobacterium sanguineum are similar to Morgellons Disease.
NanobacLabs also has the NanobacTEST-U/A, a rapid urine screening test for nanobacteria that can be done in a doctor's office with results available in minutes.
