Here is the first one. The key was finding it cited in the company's patent, though the URL was wrong. But the archive has a search.

I am impressed; I had looked for the paper and failed to uncover the related patent. Could you share the exact string that you searched for (and the search engine you used) to discover the patent?

It's on the first page of results for the serial number (the patent does not mention the author's name). What I was looking for was not the actual study, but additional citations, on the hypothesis that the citation was incorrect. I didn't expect a patent to have a link, but to be more accurate than a alternative medicine website.

Thank you much. I had never seen the patent despite my searches. I'll be sure to check them in the future!
