White mushrooms LIU Ji-Kai and his team (front row second from right to LIU Ji-Kai)<br>30 years, almost every summer, death will come to Yunnan, such as about the rugged highlands of this small village. When a peasant woman carrying a basket of mushrooms called, village head Wang walked the trail and saw a small cottage hangs in front of a brand new white curtains, she was able to know the village has been "dragged" away.<br> <br>Wang Village is a small village east of Yunnan Dali,http://www.postyourflasher.com, from Dali downtown takes about an hour. Each year, when the monsoon and monsoon rains arrive here by the end of June,http://www.just-service.co.jp, the village will have different people of all ages a mysterious death by one.<br> <br>No one knows "murderer" who.<br> <br>The only doctor in the village Li Guanghui pale out from the hall. He frowned and said to himself: "The next dead who would it be?" This is when the mouth, Lilin Mei did not think, frightening death, most likely to be hiding in her hand basket.<br> <br>Mysterious killer<br> <br>Place in Wang Village and the surrounding area has been similar deaths, all known as the "Yunnan sudden unexplained death" case. Since 1978, more than more than 400 cases of local deaths and dozens of cases of non-fatal heart disease cases are classified as such "unexplained death syndrome."<br> <br>Like a curse, these "unexplained" sudden death always concentrated outbreak, the villagers have died without warning. Therefore, when the village first appeared dead, often lead to panic other villagers.<br> <br>However, no one knows "murderer" true colors. 50s remember, from the late 70s of last century, the annual rainy season, there will be many experts came from to Beijing, into the village of about 2000 meters above sea level. These city people wearing glasses always frowning, Tu Tu painting in the book, and then another left.<br> <br>June 2005, China CDC epidemiology chief epidemiologist Zeng Guang led his team came to Yunnan Dali. They and local experts in Yunnan Province, began a five-year track work. First, they are symptoms of sudden death for these villages, including the village, including the king, were living assessment.<br> <br>Prior to this, deputy director of Yunnan endemic disease prevention Another team led by HUANG Wen cast a big net. Beginning in 2002, as this syndrome HUANG Wen compiled a long list of risk factors, including the above enterovirus infections, drinking mountain stream, alcoholism and edible vegetable oil and mushrooms.<br> <br>"But no law any evidence to convince everyone." LIU Ji-Kai said. He is the Kunming Institute of Botany of the Chinese Academy of Sciences,scarpe mbt outlet, chief chemist involved in the five-year investigation.<br> <br>To catch the culprit, people find ways. Initially, the Yunnan local experts tend to cause of death attributable to Keshan disease. In this piece of high ground in the rugged northern Yunnan, the lack of selenium in soil, is an incentive for Keshan disease.<br> <br>This assertion was quickly overthrown, researchers Yunnan only found in four villages Coxsackie virus, which is Keshan disease fatal factors leading to death. In addition, Keshan disease of the heart muscle after the invasion by the Coxsackie virus can cause organ damage. And nearly half of sudden death heart "looks normal", only the heart of some of the dead showed signs of mild infection.<br> <br>Moreover, this chronic disease Keshan disease develops slowly, never had group sex to outbreaks. More critical is the collective sick patients, about two-thirds of cases occur between unrelated villagers, so genetic factors Keshan disease in which more unlikely to play any role.<br> <br>Death is still continuing. LIU Ji-Kai heard the story "very scary": In a few hours before his death in about two-thirds of the patients showed a variety of strange symptoms, such as palpitations, dizziness, nausea, seizures, fatigue, etc., there are some weird symptoms can not even be classified.<br> <br>Since the survey die a natural death many times before, the villagers of the arrival of these experts have been accustomed to. Old rumors still circulating among villagers. Older villagers would tell little children: the rainy season from June to August each year, do not go out in very late, otherwise it will be "Ghost" towed away.<br> <br>However, death is not only happen in the night. Some villagers talking with people during the day,http://www.aixuansm.com/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=10754, suddenly fell to the ground, the heart stops beating.<br> <br>Hunt for killer<br> <br>At the time of Experts helpless, mysterious "devil" finally left clues.<br> <br>The summer of 2005, the Yunnan local researchers to light and his team had sent a group of heart tissue pathology slides. Images from three families, which three families at the same time, both have two people died.<br> <br>All the evidence points to a fatal arrhythmia, there are indications that some similar substance drug or toxin upset the balance of the heart. To confirm this idea, the experts ask for these deceased to the hospital before he died of ECG, electrocardiogram confirmed this suspicion.<br> <br>In addition, the 2006 and 2007 surveys, the experts also received a huge discovery. They found a small white mushrooms in a few families of the deceased's home. The sudden death of several other family members also admitted that the deceased had this strange little edible mushrooms.<br> <br>The summer of 2008, Liu Ji Start this white mushroom toxicity testing.<br> <br>Initially, the senior chemist does not believe,http://fjtianyun.com/news/html/?61021.html,scarpe mbt, white mushrooms can be toxic. He and his team less than half a meter along a path into the forest in the north of Yunnan. Trees grow tall, the sun is almost impossible to shine through by lush foliage. These white mushrooms,karen millen sale, grow in clusters on dead tree stump, like a blossoming of small white flowers in full bloom.<br> <br>"It's like a very weak very lovely girl." Liu Ji opened a example. When these white mushrooms picked from the tree stump, color becomes faint light gray.<br> <br>Capture "the devil" scientific experiment begins.<br> <br>LIU Ji-Kai and his team members to wear gloves, will this look unusual white mushroom dipped in alcohol. This particular experiment is often used alcohol in the chemical extraction. He put this process dubbed the "sparkling wine", a number of small villages in Yunnan villagers often this means making plant tincture.<br> <br>After one to three days of "sparkling wine", Liu Ji open extract from solvent extraction out of a complex extract. This extract is mounted in the chemical container, shipped to the Institute of Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences in Beijing in experimental animals.<br> <br>Some healthy mice were selected, installed in the experimental cage. Extract is divided into different doses,http://jfy4ghtuertfy.bloguez.com/jfy4ghtuertfy/4856010/clever.cgi, as food, fed to these mice.<br> <br>"I think the mice can not be poisoned." Liu Ji open describe their mood was skeptical.<br> <br>Surprisingly, within 24 hours, the mice were dying one after another, no matter how many swallowed dose. Before they die, there were a strange symptoms. They got, like, like epilepsy, constantly trembling, edema, intestinal bleeding.<br> <br>Facts have proved that white mushrooms poisonous.<br> <br>Next, Liu Ji open to all extracts, to purify separation. He and his team, using a chromatographic technique, the extract to remove interfering substances, extract a toxic compound.<br> <br>Spectroscopy also put to use. Liu Ji open mass spectrometer will break this compound with molecular electronics, the use of magnetic resonance imaging spectroscopy, stripping out three kinds of "strange" amino acids. 26 kinds of amino acid and this usually contact the experts completely different.<br> <br>Generally speaking, most of the amino acids from the protein composition, their chemical structure with a fixed pattern, and play an important role in the body's metabolism. However, the extract from the white mushrooms out of amino acids,http://www.mapfan.com/spotdetail.cgi, but any kind of protein have no relationship. Wherein the chemical structure of an amino acid or even "new."<br> <br>"Three kinds are poisonous." LIU Ji-Kai said. He almost can conclude who is the annual visit Yunnan village "ghost."<br> <br>Sent packing murderer<br> <br>Not everyone agreed. For example, Li Guanghui.<br> <br>He insisted that the mountain streams contaminated by toxic substances or pathogens, leading to the main cause of this sudden death syndrome, "the vast majority of cases have drunk dirty water."<br> <br>Villagers in the area like the mountains of natural drinking water,http://www.colepicasso.es/spip.php?article159, although in experts opinion, this water has shares of strange taste.<br> <br>LIU Ji-Kai also confirmed that not all of the sudden death of this little white mushrooms are edible. The researchers noted that the investigation team,babyliss curl pas cher, barium heavy metal elements seem to play a role in the death process. It can lead to abnormal heart rhythms.<br> <br>In 2006, the investigation team of the two villages occurrence of mass sudden death of the deceased and their families extracted blood sample. Barium content exceeded a lot of people have, one of the dead to achieve a high level of content. And in another incident a group of sudden death, blood, urine, hair, and local water deceased, were detected high levels of barium element.<br> <br>In addition, some villagers sick or healthy ECG data,babyliss curl secret, also targeting the barium element. It is noteworthy that, barium white mushrooms index also exceeded the normal levels.<br> <br>Zeng Guang refused to China Youth Daily reporter's interview. He hesitated for a long time after that "is not yet fully confirmed", the results will be announced in the near future. An unnamed expert said the investigation "to bear a certain amount of political pressure."<br> <br>So far, often put into the baskets of mushrooms Lilin Mei and some villagers are reluctant to believe, it is white mushrooms led to sudden death. Yunnan highlands in these small villages, wild mushrooms are an important source of their income. Mushroom picking season is generally between July and August of each year, "almost the entire village of people go to pick mushrooms."<br> <br> and villagers often put up a tent in a simple mushroom ground, on successive nights too. There will be some middlemen,http://blog.ky4z.cn/?uid-17692-action-viewspace-itemid-128, carrying sacks and steelyard, will mushroom picking villagers go to low income. These plump, juicy mushrooms, sold by middlemen hotel or exported. Matsutake, porcini hotel's Europe, Japan and other dried mushrooms on the table, mostly produced in Yunnan.<br> <br>With the exception of white mushrooms, because there is no commercial value, it has become the only poor villagers willing to eat mushrooms. Villagers can not say exactly the name of this mushroom, though, they have been living in the village existed for many years.<br> <br>No matter what, a movement started. From June 2009, the Chinese Preventive disease control center experts and Yunnan local researchers deep into these closed little village. They will be some health pamphlets, distributed among the villagers, emblazoned with this white mushroom photos, and marked a cross on red. Valley Field tweeter began uninterrupted playback, persuade the villagers not to eat this white mushrooms.<br> <br>It seems that the devil was temporarily sent packing. LIU Ji-Kai told China Youth Daily reporter, carried out this kind of publicity after the 2010 rainy season, group sex sudden death cases these villages "almost no happen again."
