"Testing A Dietary Supplement Mix for Safety and Efficacy" Brenda Rea DRPh, David Fukuda MD ( 1/2008 - Present )

Externally funded by the Lassen Foundation (Dr. Phillip Horning and Board). Project beginning January 2008 and hopefully ending for amino acid analysis sample analysis in August 2009. The amino acid urine analysis assays for this project have been delayed by amino acid analyzer break down and continued high maintenance needs which have required key instrument part replacement which have been difficult to obtain due the age of the AAA. Completion of this project will probably require another three months to complete the amino acid analysis and project and paper submission.
