" ... in this study, we have used a breast cancer cell line (MCF7) for the in vitro evaluation of the effects induced by different light exposures. In particular, we investigated in vitro effects of visible light (466- 950nm) and the specific far infrared light wavelengths, 3500– 6400nm (within the range determined computationally by the RRM), on MCF7 and normal dermal epithelial cells used as a control." {Credits 1} They irradiate cells with frequency ranges predicted with the Resonant Recognition Model [1] (that basically consists in that since there is an evidence that proteins have certain conducting or semiconducting properties, a charge moving through the protein backbone and passing different energy stages caused by different amino acid side groups can produce sufficient conditions for a specific electromagnetic radiation or absorption, and there is experimental evidence that each function has a specific frequency that is shared both by the protein and its target). {Credits 1} 🎪 Peidaee, P., Almansour, N., Shukla, R., & Pirogova, E.
