THE EZ. "In the direct vicinity of hydrophilic gel-like materials a zone devoid of microscopic particles, called the exclusion zone (EZ) develops. The size of the EZ may reach several hundred microns, and under some circumstances, it may persist for relatively long times, up to days. The EZ has been shown to develop near the surface of a surprising variety of materials, ranging from myofibrils to hydrophilic lipid monolayers." https://lnkd.in/dNd72CT View in LinkedIn

"SCHOOL CHILDREN learn that water has three phases: solid, liquid and vapor. In 2003 Pollack's group discovered a fourth phase. This phase occurs next to water-loving (hydrophilic) surfaces. It projects out from those surfaces by up to millions of molecular layers. And, its physical and chemical properties differ from those of ordinary liquid water." The new phase is Exclusion Zone crystalline water. https://lnkd.in/dKWdrys View in LinkedIn

"INSIDE THE CELL, the concentration of proteins in cytoplasm is between 170 to 300 mg/ml, which suggests that 7 to 9 shells of water (hydration shells) coat the available surfaces, corresponding to a distance of 4 to 5nm (nanometre, 10(-9) m) between the surfaces. A substantial fraction of the water is quite closely associated (at a distance of less than 0.5nm) with the proteins, nucleic acids, polysaccharides and assemblies of smaller molecules that make up an organism, and is essential for their functioning." http://www.i-sis.org.uk/WFMEZ.php View in LinkedIn

BEWARE THE CRAZY FRINGE, which is numerous and noisy, who have taken Pollack's work into the far yonder of quacky woo-woo-land, selling snake-oil nonsense. The science behind his work is solid. View in LinkedIn

RESISTANCE TO NEW IDEAS. "Challenging convention is not a bed of roses, I assure you. You might think that members of the scientific establishment would warmly embrace fresh approaches that throw new light on old thinking, but mostly they do not." (Professor Gerald Pollack). https://lnkd.in/dKWdrys View in LinkedIn

"WATER SCIENCE has had a checkered history. The polywater debacle left scars; it kept curious scientists away from water for decades. Then came water memory. Memory stored in water seemed so improbable that it became the butt of scientific jokes." https://lnkd.in/dKWdrys View in LinkedIn

CREDENTIALED SCIENTIST. "Pollack is a highly decorated professor at the University of Washington, author of numerous peer-reviewed papers, recipient of the 2012 Prigogine Medal, and editor of the academic journal Water. I mention this because in a field fraught with what some call pseudo-science, but what I’ll politely call speculative inquiry unburdened by scientific rigor, paradigm-busting theories attract an inordinate degree of hostility." https://lnkd.in/dmZHjMr View in LinkedIn

"THE WATER THREAD EXPERIMENT is a phenomenon that occurs when two containers of deionized water, placed on an insulator, are connected by a thread, then a high-voltage positive electric charge is applied to one container, and a negative charge to the other. At a critical voltage, an unsupported water liquid bridge is formed between the containers, which will remain even when they are separated. It is theorized that this bridge is made of up an H3O2 lattice or Exclusion Zone Water." http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_thread_experiment View in LinkedIn
