Request by Tien Gartin:
1.  How to test for dioxin.
2.  How to prepare sample.


A program of cross checking between labs
was developed and is called SCC.

This is an older list of SCC Labs from
the EPA.  I would guess that most are
still testing dioxins.

Emmanuel de Broux is following this
issue in Europe; suggest that he and
his friends prepare and post a similar
list on this forum.

=============================
"Anyone who promotes endocrine
disruptor use which mediates gene
damage for greed, should be tried
for crimes against mankind"

One condition diabetes is already at
6% of the population. An overlapping
condition, porphyria is at 6 to 9% of
the population.

If we continue to damage genes with
dioxin and related conditions are
doubling each 10 years, how long
before there are no undamaged genes
left on the planet?
2000  approximately 10%
2010         "             20%
2020         "             40%
2030         "             80%
2033         "            100%
So by the year 2033, if trends continue,
endocrine disruptors will damage the
entire gene pool.  At that time where
will undamaged cord cell type DNA
be sourced?  Even for the extremely rich
and extremely well connected ruling
elite?

Citizens Reaction Against Pollution
was started by John Austin to track
military related toxins, civilian
toxins and health effects.

This organization is working to
eliminate toxins and encourage the
chemically poisoned to find toxicologists,
endocrinologists and coordinate with
other chemically poisoned people.

     Please note that this list is broken down by the analytical groups
in which the labs have performed work.  Labs listed in these groups have
submitted approved analytical data (e.g. organics) or start up tests data
pertaining to the group with which they are associated.  However, all of
the labs listed below are in good standing with SCC and may be solicited
outside of the program that they are identified with below (this can be
done when the Viar Capabilities Survey Index shows capability in another
area).  Whenever any lab (SCC or SAS Eligible CLP) performs an analysis
for the first time, it is imperative that they complete associated start
up tests and any required PE analysis prior analysis of field samples.
