Pokeweed Antiviral Protein, PAP, is a type I Ribosome Inactivating Protein, RIP [1]. RIP’s are a group/family of proteins that are used as resistance factors against different types of viruses and fungi [2]. The Pokeweed Protein is used as an inhibitor for the replication and protein synthesis of animal and plant viruses [3]. PAP is purified from the leaves of the Pokeweed plant and seems to have identical characteristics to other single chained proteins, like Ricin and Abrin.

    Notification of the Ministry of Public Health (No.377) B.E.2559 (2016) RE: Designation of Requirements and Conditions for Import Food with Risk from Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy (BSE) or Mad Cow Disease is a fatal disease found in cattle.

    I do not believe that there is any real concern for contracting prions/Mad Cow Disease or Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease from Altoids. I believe this to be true because of many reasons, one being that the transmission from one species to another, while highly possible is less successful on the prions part than from one animal to another of the same species. “The transmission of prions from one species to another is accompanied by a prolonged incubation time on the initial passage to the host, with subsequent passages being considerably shorter. ... this "species barrier" has been shown to be due to differences in PrP [prions] sequence” (Fred Cohen, K. Pan, Z. Huang). The article also states that there are differences in DNA and genetic makeup amongst different species thus, prions have more difficulty transmitting from species to another.…

    Radish Seed Experiment

    Abstract This experiment is about the effect of microwave radiation exposure on the percent that radish seeds germinate. The hypothesis in this experiment is if the radish seed is placed in the microwave for 8 minutes, then the percent of germinated seeds would be the lowest out of all the times. This experiment is important because if something happens and radish seeds are exposed to microwave radiation people would be able to know if the radishes would germinate if they knew the time they were exposed. This could also be used to find out if people could grow radishes in space because there is a lot of microwave radiation.…
