Abstract

The human blood coagulation cascade had been extensively researched from a biochemistry and molecular perspective. The purpose of this manuscript is to introduce a biophysical phenomenon detected via optical microscopy at the end of the human blood coagulation cascade. This could be described as a sudden energy event in the form of light radiation observed once blood tissue movement stops being attracted to metal iron filings or carbon based graphite particles used as sentinels. Upon close examination of video recordings, the sudden movements of iron particles images coincided with light at the end of the coagulation cascade. A literature search confirmed that both metal filings and graphite particles to possess excellent electrical conductivity. A biophysical light radiation event discharge is hypothesized as result of a burst in the conversion of fibrinogen to fibrin signaling the end of a coagulation cycle; perhaps combined with a piezoelectric effect induced by a sudden clumping of RBCs, or from the optical absorption or water. Method: Metal iron filings or graphite particles were randomly sprinkled on fresh TIBS preparations. The sample was then readily focused and selected particles chosen for video analysis. Equipment used was a video microscope Celestron Model # 44348, glass slides and author’s blood drops. The data was digitally transferred and stored in an Apple computer photo application for further review. Results: When metal iron filings or graphite particles were sprinkled on freshly prepared TIBS slides, video analysis show light radiation emitted at the end of the blood coagulation cascade. Discussion: Since the light radiation emission occurred at the end of the blood coagulation cycle, it is theorized that blood tissue compression could induce piezoelectricity coinciding with energy released by a fibrin burst, or by the optical absorption of water.
