What is it about?

The objective of the current study was to evaluate the effect of biofield energy treatment on the isotopic abundance ratios of PM+1/PM, PM+2/PM, PM+3/PM and PM+4/PM in p-DCB using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS).

Why is it important?

The current study inferred that biofield energy treatment has a remarkable capability for altering the isotopic abundance ratio in p-DCB. The gas chromatography-mass spectrometric (GC-MS) analysis of the both control and biofield energy treated sample showed the presence of the molecular ion peak at m/z 146 (calculated 145.97 for C6H4Cl2+) along with four major fragmented peaks at m/z 111, 75, 55 and 50. Only, the relative peak intensities of the fragmented ions in treated sample were different from the control sample. The isotopic abundance ratios analysis in p-DCB revealed that the isotopic abundance ratio of PM+1/PM in biofield energy treated sample at T1, T2, T3, and T4 was significantly increased by 10.87, 83.90, 225.16, and 241.15%, respectively as compared to the control. Consequently, the isotopic abundance ratio of PM+2/PM was enhanced in biofield energy treated sample at T1, T2, and T3 by 4.55, 9.49, and 1.80%, respectively as compared to the control. Subsequently, the PM+3/PM in biofield energy treated sample at T1, T2, T3, and T4 was significantly increased by 15.14, 82.57, 192.43, and 218.31%, respectively as compared to the control sample. Similarly, the isotopic abundance ratio of PM+4/PM in biofield energy treated sample at T1, T2, T3, and T4 was significantly improved by 13.80, 86.66, 186.13, and 204.29%, respectively as compared to the control sample. It was observed that the isotopic abundance ratios of PM+1/PM, PM+3/PM, and PM+4/PM in the biofield treated sample were increased gradually with respect to time. As biofield energy treated p-DCBhad increased isotopic abundance ratio, it might have altered physicochemical and thermal properties, and rate of reaction than the control sample. Hence, biofield energy treated p-DCB could be advantageous in pharmaceutical and chemical industries as intermediates during the preparation of pharmaceuticals and chemicals by controlling the rate of chemical reaction.
