Thank you Caroline! spellingYour research work is exactly what we need. I think your video is very clear.
I am planning to buy a microscope and get serious with my own population.
I found the board a few weeks ago. I have been waging a war on my left forearm since. I dug most of a larger lesion out with baking soda and its now an open "pit". Its clean and quite dry. When I pour H2O2 into it fibres appear from underneath (where I think "mom" lives) I keep pulling them out. They do seem to get longer.
Since I started the forearm dozens of tiny lesion scabs/covers have appeared around my "pit". I retreive all lesion scab material and dot clusters which I find, unless too small. I keep the samples. I submerge some in H2O2 where they foam like crazy, then are easier to dissect. I soak others in OH and poke at them. Some particles turn into bundles of fibres which unravel into longer and longer fibres. While working last week (mouths to feed here) I met a man who was on disability because he has this stuff on his hands and feet. Nice disability plan. I showed him my arm and told him I have another one and two legs just like it. He backed away.
Keep up the good work. Perhaps I will be of some use when I am equipped.
