PROJECT: GOLDEN DREAM, #1

Report
After two long months we managed to acquire a small amount of Xenobiotic Filters for the purpose of our experiment. The first variety of Golden Cardamine was grown in a controlled laboratory greenhouse and initial sensory tests were satisfactory. A total of 902mg of extract was obtained.

A total of 800mg of extract was refined in 5 test lines (A, B, C, D, E), each of 10 batches (0-9). Sensory tests were performed by 10 volunteers.

Sensory Tests

• Samples A0-A9: Bitter-sour aftertaste after ingestion of the Product, lasting up to 93 minutes after ingestion. Unsatisfactory.
  
• Samples B0-B9: Mild and pleasant sensory aroma of the Product, lasting up to 244 minutes after ingestion. Samples B7-B9 caused mild allergic reactions of the nasal mucous membranes, cause unknown. Promising but potentially dangerous.
  
• Samples C0-C9: Mild and pleasant sensory aroma of the Product, lasting up to 186 minutes after ingestion. Sample C3 caused a 'synthetic' aftertaste after the initial sensory aroma had dissipated. Promising.
  
• Samples D0-D9: A faint, almost imperceptible uplifting aroma of the Product, lasting up to 12 hours after ingestion. Samples D2-D5 without effect. Promising for long-term effectiveness, but need to increase the intensity of the subject's experience.
  
• Samples E0-E9: Pleasant sensory aroma, lasting up to 97 minutes after ingestion. Samples E3-E8 caused nasal irritation eight hours after ingestion, cause unknown. Unsatisfactory for potential hazard.

Metabolic Tests
In all samples, onset of effect gradual, peak mild and prolonged. Samples A7, D1, B7-B9 lasted more than 16 hours and caused two days of insomnia. Subjects showed higher activity levels without impaired concentration.

Required Treatment:

• B7-B9 samples required topical antihistamine therapy.
  
• E3-E8 samples required systemic corticosteroid therapy.

Conclusion
Discard the A series due to its unsatisfactory sensory properties.
Elimination of the E series due to its potential health hazard.
Series B, C and D recommended for further development.
