Hi Techtor and all, 

Since you are up to medical-related questions I have one more for you.
Where can find independent sources that can run a double blinded exam
of a new all-natural nutrition related to sexual enhancement? The
supplement works in normal conditions for up 10 days and has nothing
except natural extracts. So, you can imagine its potential compared to
current drugs, but what it needs now is documenting these results
through a respectable research organization. So, I am trying to run
such a test based on a moderate budget from a reputable organization.
What do you recommend?

All the best...

I will see what companies advertise or display their services online,
and what might fit their budget. From what I've been seeing, some
university labs might be doing this, though I'll have to get more
information. I'll let you know what I've found soon.

Hi Octopia,
To start with, I've looked around for clinical testing centers, and
generally there are online sites that list them in a directory. The
difficult part is finding which of them mentions if they do double
blind studies and how much they can do it for (this one probably won't
be mentioned). I assume you mean you will sponsor the test right?
Again, most testing centers are university- and government-related.
I'll see what else I could find.

This is an example of what I thought might lead to what you're looking for:

Hi Octopia,
No problem, I know tings keep you busy. Here are other sites I found:

SUNY Upstate Medical University: Research Administration Office
http://www.upstate.edu/research/clintrial/volunteers.shtml

ClinicalTrials.gov - Information on Clinical Trials and Human Research Studies
http://www.clinicaltrials.gov/ct/info/glossary;jsessionid=5AFD179151232A66BD7EA2B1D03FD25D

I posted them in the Clarification section first just to check if I'm
on the right track. I hope to find a more specific web page with a
more narrowed down list. Thanks.

Yes, you seem to be on the right track. The second link is for a
glossary section but it also has good info. Are there any more sites
showing international clinical-trial orginazations?
thanks,
Karim
