Calimari clots in the living

Thank your views about me.

I will pay them all possible due respect.

Here is an update on the Amaloyd Calamari clots, here we have a big gun looking into it. It seems that they do not dissolve like a normal clot, because something like a catalyst gets the clot to form differently. The interesting thing is that when this type of clot forms it fluoresces, snake toxins were mentioned which can cause this type of clotting cascade.

I wonder if this is related at all.

Implantable Nanosensors: Toward Continuous Physiologic Monitoring

While many groups have attempted to design implantable glucose sensors with boronic acids and fluorophores, (9a) few have actually monitored glucose in a live animal. One successful design used an injectable polyacrylamide hydrogel to immobilize a fluorescent boronic acid derivative and showed glucose responsiveness for up to 140 days (9e, 13) (Figure 1). Their design is both injectable and explantable, but it induced substantial inflammation and relied on UV excitation. Another design paired boronic acid derivatives with alizarin to produce glucose nanosensors that fluoresce at 570 nm and selectively respond to glucose. (14) An improved design slowed nanoparticle diffusion from the injection site by encapsulating the nanoparticles in a hydrogel matrix, prolonging their in vivo residence 3-fold.

Nanoparticles injected into tissues are also susceptible to clearance by the neutrophil extracellular trap (35) (NET), a tight network of debris that helps to link the innate and adaptive immune responses. (36) Neutrophils and mast cells contribute to the NET by releasing fibrillar matter into the extracellular space to physically trap pathogens and foreign bodies.

Silicon nanocrystals, carbon dots, and graphene quantum dots are also nanocrystalline semiconductor fluorophores that have similar optical properties as heavy-metal (e.g., CdSe) quantum dots. Depending on fabrication conditions and excitation wavelengths, they can have long fluorescent lifetimes (>1 μs) and size-dependent optical properties.

If you mess with something on the molecular level wishing for a certain outcome. You can't be sure that you haven't messed with another process that have to remain in balance. So you just have to suck it and see. That's what they have done. This is not just a simple concept the ramifications if they get it wrong are catastrophic on a lot of levels. If we ask what have the government ever got right? not a lot because they are not perfect, Nothing is. A complex society can't take many cockups and stay viable. This might have been one too many.
Where everyone is dependent on everyone else, there has to be a good level of redundancy, in all the systems that are dependent on the other.,Risk management has been a concept used to reduce the redundancy to maximise the generation of profit, if the profit taken is more than the required redundancy the system has to collapse.This is what we are witnessing in real time. So instead of increasing the redundancy and lowering the profit take, like having two mechanics instead of one, The one mechanic who has gone sick has cost the company its viability. In the mechanic example The balance here has been lost on the macro scale. But the same applies on the nano scale.
This is just the way things are, like a plant produces thousands of seeds in the hope that a few grow to make other seeds, which is a high level of redundancy for the unviable seeds. But they are not redundant as they feed other things in a complex web which like the medical intervention was poorly understood.

Here we have a cardio vascular surgeon talking about why these strange clots can't be seen with diagnostic tools. The incidence at which they are coming and how hard it is to pull them out. It is definiatly a new pathology , comments ask what happens if these amaloyd structures form in the brain? just thought I would drop this interesting update.

Science engages with the world like a QR code, blocky information, that either goes too far for us physically, or underwhelms our emotional needs.
