The discovery came recently when bones from a Nubian cemetery in. the * Sudan were examined under a fluorescing microscope. microscope. Fluorescent light caused thin boné sections to glow yellow-green, a characteristic signal that the antibiotic tetracycline had been deposited in the bones during the person's lifetime. Researchers believe that streptomyces, a moldlike bacterium that manufactures manufactures tetracycline, is the likely source. Nubian desert soils are rich in this bacterium, which may have grown on grain stored in granaries made of mud. The ancients may have used the mouldy grain in bread and beer during times of famine -- tetracycline tetracycline gives a bitter taste and the antibiotic grain probably would have been rejected under normal circumstances. circumstances. The theory fits well with another discovery about Nubians: 'the bones also indicate they did not suffer the usual burden of infectious infectious diseases;. Studies suggest suggest that the peqple were receiving te'tracÿcline ,at about the same therapeutic levels prescribed by modern doctors^a millenium millenium and a half later. The price of hamburgers (IDRC) - When you bite into that burger, think of trees. In a different sort of Big Mac attack, huge tracts of forests in Central America are being cut to grow cattle for hamburgers and hot dogs. The fast foods business is booming. McDonalds, the largest hamburger operation, operation, sells about three billion burgers every year. In the process, about 300,000 head of cattle go. between the buns. The search for cheap beef to feed this appetite has led to Central America. There, pasturelands and cattle production have more than doubled over the last 30 years. Central Americans Americans are not eating this meat; their beef consumption consumption has dropped. In the face of rising costs of domestic beef, the US government has stepped up imports. They claim this can trim a nickel off the price of a hamburger - an inflation-fighting move that couldn't be more popular. .-But the real cost is hidden by cheap hamburgers. hamburgers. Two-thirds of the natural forests have been cleared in Central America. All will have disappeared by ' 1990 if present rates continue. Tropical forests act as the earth's "lungs" by absorbing absorbing carbon dioxide and producing producing oxygen as they grow. Scientists are becoming becoming alarmed about the possibility of an "environmental "environmental backlash." They are most worried about the changes in world climate produced by a buildup of the carbon dioxide normally removed by forests. Their warning: give the trees a break today, or they'll give us a desert tomorrow. eel van REALTY LTD. BROKER 123 KING ST.
