Abstract :
The phenomena of quantum bioelectric effects are introduced, and a biomathematical model is developed to explain these effects. Solar hyperpyrexia is given as an example. The symptomatology resulting from prolonged solar exposure is explained. These include such things as the paradox of solar hyperpyrexia with no diaphoresis, mental confusion, disorientation, hyperventilation, and in the limit death. The model consists of a quantum bioelectric hemoglobin to methemoglobin system
