I am interested in hearing from anyone that has any information on the
aerial application of the organophosphate malathion. I am especially
interested in anything that pertains to the malathion sprays in the
San Francisco Bay Area during the early 1980s. This is for a senior
seminar in an environmental health science program. Your help would be
very much appreciated.

Does anyone know of the enzyme "papane?" Apparently it is a proteolytic
enzyme that is derived from the papaya plant. I was told that it was very
useful for cleaning skulls, and relatively clean and quick. The problem
is that I haven't been able to locate anyone that has used it and would
know where to aquire it from. Any help in this would be appreciated greatly.
Please respond to me directly.

Thanks in advance.

Isn't papane the main ingredient in meat tenderizers?
If so, you should be able to get it in your local
grocery store!
