Both of your links lead to the same research team, doing the same study on "colony" mice and again on "outbred" mice. One is published in Neuromolecular Medicine, the other in the Journal of Inorganic Chemistry.
Re: Gulf War Illness research on mice published in (hbci.com)
Amorphous AluminumHydroxyphosphate Sulfate is the adjuvant used in Gardasil, aluminum hydroxide combined with squalene is used in the Anthrax vaccine. No absolute aluminum dosage amounts were given in the summaries I saw. (But I will keep looking)
Although both of these adjuvants do contain aluminum, they are different compounds and research pertaining to one (in mice), cannot be reasonably transferred to another compound in human usage. And I'm afraid my chemistry background is not that advanced - I would need to see a study, or even just an explanation from an actual chemist, to understand the diference(s) between them at this time.
But I will keep looking to see if I can find the absolute dosage amounts of actual aluminum in each. This may be a valid concern, if the compound in Gardasil is actually broken down to solitary aluminum molecules that may be absorbed by the body in general and/or the brain in particular.
And, since not all the mice exhibited deficits (or even the same deficits) it would be extremely interesting to find out which co-factors are responsible for some of the mice absorbing aluminum, and some not.
Thanks for posting these links, they are very interesting.
