Dear Sande,
                            I apologize for not elaborating relative to the
availability
                 of extracts/compounds originating from Plakinastrella.  To my
knowledge, there is no APPROVED source available for the general populace.  Our
inquiries have disclosed a single source dedicated for authorized/validated
research  organizations.  To our knowledge, no extensive in vivo trials
involving primates or humans,,,,,,under controlled parameters;   have been
performed.  This does not mean they have not been done -----just that we are
not aware of them.
               I wish I could have been more helpful in this matter.
                                Sincerely,  Brooks Bradley.
