than thermal radiation. The radiation is detected by a photo
multiplier with a gain of over 10 power 6. The method may be used
to determine whether a cell lot is in a healthy state.

Examining biological effects on foodstuffs of seeds - by measuring intensity of ultra-weak photon radiation in vitro
A measurement of the spontaneous or stimulated emission of ultra-weak photon radiation is used as an in vitro parameter of a cell lot. The parameter is used to detect possible cell-damaging or regenerating effects or to act as a quality control. The measured quantity is either the photon intensity or a photon statistic e.g. the distribution of numbers of photons emitted in a measuring interval. The ultra-weak radiation is typically in the infra red band and has an energy very much less than that of thermal radiation. Typically the radiation is 10 power (-10) less than thermal radiation. The radiation is detected by a photo multiplier with a gain of over 10 power 6. The method may be used to determine whether a cell lot is in a healthy state. Alternatively it can be used to determine the effect of an agent on the cells. The method is partic. suitable for quality control in foodstuffs.

Diagnosis of tumours and direction of treatment - by measuring ultra-weak photon emission characteristics of sample tissue
The method of diagnosing malignity of sample tissue and direction
of the therapy selected for malignant tumours involves measuremtn
of ultra weak photon emissions in the spectral range from infrared
to ultraviolet. The method of diagnosis is based on the fact that
the radiations emitted by tumours differ in intensity and other
characteristics from those emitted by normal tissues. The
characteristics evaluated are to be found in the documents
referenced. The beam intensity, for example, increases with
increasing malignity. The method fo treatment management involves
treating sample tissue with different selected substances and
simultaneously measuring the ultra weak photon emissions. The most
suitable substance for treatment is that which changes the
characteristics of the cell radiations most clearly in the
direction of the corrsp. characteristics of norma tissue.Diagnosis of tumours and direction of treatment - by measuring ultra-weak photon emission characteristics of sample tissue

Detection of microbial contamination, e.g.
in food, drink and water
Detection of microbial contamination comprises measurement of the
intensity of photons emitted by a sample in a polar solvent. A
voltage is applied to electrodes placed in the sample and the
measured photon emission intensity is compared with a control to
determine the presence or absence of contamination.The invention relates to a method for the detection of microbial infection.

To date, it has proved useful to detect bacteria or microbial infections in liquids (for example, beer) by colony formation of the possible germs in suitable nutrient media. The samples are applied to culture media and observed under favorable growth conditions. If, given a sufficiently large number of samples, no germination is observed after a sufficiently long incubation period of a few days, it is assumed that no germs are present. This method is now used almost everywhere where detection of microbial infections is required. A detailed description of this common method can be found in relevant textbooks, for example, by A. Koch, Growth Measurements in: American Society for Microbiology (ed. By Gerhardt, Murray, Costilow, Nester, Wool, Krieg, and Phillips) , 1981 pp. 179-206.
This customary method offers relatively high safety, but has the great disadvantage that the incubation time to the reliable detection of existing bacteria often lasts longer than a manufacturer can allow germ-free products. For technical or economic reasons, the product produced can therefore no longer be tested for germ-freeness before delivery.
[1992]
In recent years, therefore, fluorescence methods have been used which take advantage of the fact that bacteria can be excited by fluorescence or by biochemical interventions. This allows direct detection of certain bacteria without delay. The method is fully described in the literature, for example in: Wolff, LF, Anderson, L., Sandberg, GP, Reither, L., Binsfeld, CA, Corinaldesi, G. and Shelburne, CE: Bacteria Concentration Fluorescence Immunoassay (BCFIA) for the detection of periodontopathogens in plaque. J. Periodontol. 1992,63.1093-1101.
Although the fluorescence method can detect bacteria directly without time delay, it has the disadvantage that it is suitable only for specific bacteria which can be biochemically excited to fluorescence. Moreover, even in favorable cases, the detection limit is 10 bacteria / ml. It is therefore not generally applicable, but relatively individual and costly.
A process is known from the patents (European Patent EP 0430150, Fluids DE 44 01 169 A1, Cell Cultures P 43 08 520.2-41), which reduces the photon emission to a sensitivity of 10 <-17> W (corresponding to a few quanta per second And per cm 2) in the optical spectral range (from about 200-800 nm). This method can also be used to measure the recombination lights of charge carriers in liquids.
Surprisingly, it has now become apparent that this process is also suitable for displaying at least 100 bacteria / ml in polar liquids. Although the high sensitivity of the method for distinguishing the "quality" of liquids was already surprising, new studies on the detection of microbial infection provided the additional surprising finding that all microbial infections were already present at such low concentrations that they could not be detected by the other methods More detectable by significant changes in photon radiation. It has proved advantageous to bring the sample in an aqueous solution into a 10 ml quartz glass cuvette. In order to bring charge carriers into the liquid, one can advantageously enrich with 3 mM / l of cooking salt. A DC voltage of 30 volts, which is switched off again after a few seconds, is applied, for example, to two circuit boards, which are immersed in a needle-like manner parallel to the liquid at a distance of a few millimeters.
The sample is in absolute darkness. The intensity of the photon emission is measured with a light meter (which is described as a utility model, for example, in G 94 17 845.3).
It is shown that the presence of microbial infection is a sensitive change in photon emission.
The nature and state of the infection can be determined by a suitable variation of the measuring parameters (voltage, pH value, composition of the liquid, external excitation, spectral resolution), for example the question of which bacteria are involved and in which state (alive or Dead) the bacteria are present. Therefore, in addition to the first two patent claims, the claims 3 - 7. levied.
The invention is surprising and novel since the high sensitivity of the process was not known or predictable despite the known and partly patented basic building blocks. This high sensitivity combined with sufficient reproducibility makes the process interesting for many commercial areas.
The process is to be used in the beverage and brewing industry, in the monitoring of water, in the food industry, for example in dairy products, as well as in all other branches of the commercial economy which are dependent on the control of microbial infections.
Example
Into a 10 ml quartz cuvette, two needle-shaped circuit boards are inserted in parallel at a distance of 5 mm and connected to a DC voltage source. To the cuvette are added successively 8 ml of pure saline solution (3 mM / l of saline), the same solution with an additional concentration of 10 Rhizobium japonicum 1132-2 bacteria / ml and the same solution with a concentration of 100 Rhizobium japonicum 1132- 2 bacteria / ml.
In any case, a DC voltage of 80 volts is applied for a period of 5 seconds. At the same time, the intensities of photon emission (in number of photons / 100 ms) are measured over the period of 5 s. The measurement is repeated three times. The mean values and scatterings of the three measurements are formed. Table I contains the results. Table I
The result shows that this method can significantly detect 10 bacteria / ml.
