using kt for a microbial extraction

[Guest guest]

this is a paper written by a kid! It talks about the parasitic plants

that grow on tea.They end up being like concentrated little tea

plants.The paper goes over the traditional recipe for using a kt to

extract the selenium out of these plants. In doing so it covers the

chemical analysis of the tea substrate and reveals the presence of

glucoronic acid on page 13. It just goes to show that KT can be used to

extract other desirable medicinal compounds. I just know those grannies

in villages like korea where fermentation is used to extract the good

stuff must have some interesting recipes..I thought it was interesting.
