So, yeah, I wanted to ask you about that because I've heard some people like, oh, yeah, they opened it up and there was mold and all this stuff in there. But then you hear, well, no, it's not permeable, so that's not possible. So what's the truth there?
I published a paper just to just put that to rest because it's not a thing. And I don't want people, you know, TMZ and Instagram and all the chat, all the important has been done there. But general, we published the paper to show that in 29% of almost 600 consecutive explant specimens, it's bacteria and it's particularly Cutibacterium acnes and staph epidermidis. Now that's important because another paper published last year by Dr. Muthoon Sina, wonderful scientist at Indiana University Medical center, published a paper showing that that bacterial interaction from the staph epidermidist, it interacts with the fat, say the fatty acid, oleic acid, in the breast tissue. So it used to be thought that the shell was basically impervious. Right. You know, the scar tissue didn't allow anything to happen. That's not true. So you can have interaction between the bacteria that stuck inside and then the breast tissue.
