Biographical:
Dr. William A. Croft graduated from the University of Minnesota in 1970 as a doctor of Veterinary Medicine. Dr. Croft then obtained a Ph.D. in Medical Pathology from the University of Wisconsin Medical School, Department of Pathology in 1975. Dr. Croft has studied human disease for the last 29 years as a medical pathologist. He has worked at the University of Wisconsin, Madison on the faculty, as assistant professor and has received grant monies of over $900,000 from the National Institute of Health to study urinary bladder cancer, a human disease, concerning pathological early detection, diagnosis, mechanism of action, and possible therapeutic methods He has studied and determined the safety of toxic chemicals, using various laboratory animals, for the Federal Food and Drug Administration (FDA) as a medical pathologist. Dr. Croft investigated medical health emergencies within the environment such as pesticides, (Buctril), solvents (gasoline), heavy metals (copper, chromium and arsenic), phenol (hog factory) and toxic mold found in sick buildings and people of the community as a medical pathologist.
Dr. Croft has studied toxic mold in animals and humans for the last 22 years and has observed 7,000 humans with inhalation of Trichothecene Mycotoxins. His experience as a medical pathologist has led him to report the signs and symptoms and determine the finger print for Trichothecene Mycotoxicoses in animal and humans within the tissue and reported in the scientific literature. His research has led to the development of a urine assay, confirmed using Koch’s Postulants, which has enabled him to clearly establish exposure and date of that exposure to Trichothecene Mycotoxins and the pathology in humans. This Urine Assay is been referenced many times in medical and scientific literature and is most recently recognized by the National Institute of Health [NIH] and Department of Health and Human Services Center for Disease Control and Prevention [CDC] as one of only two viable means of the detection of the biomarkers of Trichothecene Mycotoxins in human subjects, and the only reliable method for the detection of Trichothecene Mycotoxins in urine.
Dr. Croft has written the first paper on the Sick Building Syndrome (SBS) (1) and has been referenced in peer reviewed medical and scientific literature 167 times to date indicating the acceptance of his work. As a medical pathologist, Dr. Croft has confirmed the pathology, the fingerprint for Trichothecene Mycotoxicosis in humans and animals and has diagnosed the disease in four humans to date. Trichothecene Mycotoxins are stealth poisons that are cumulative in it’s their health effects in humans. In fungi contaminated buildings the urine assay is the only reliable measure or biomarker to detect and date exposure to these Trichothecene Mycotoxins. Many of the Trichothecene Mycotoxins are also release as a vapor and the urine assay is the only method to detect that date that exposure.
Dr. Croft has been recognized as an expert in the United States, Canada and Europe for his knowledge and pathology of causing human disease and including Trichothecene Mycotoxicosis in humans and animals.
In Summary Dr. Croft is a medical pathologist qualified to study human disease to establish safety from disease causing agents.

Dr. Croft’s Book
WOW, what a book!! Dr. Croft’s groundbreaking book tells the tale of hatred, corruption, high stakes politics, and greed by bin Laden, his al-Quaeda bioterrorist operatives and the ruthless, all powerful insurance, chemical and pharmaceutical companies that plot to destroy humanity. Dr. Croft takes the reader on a remarkable journey that blurs the lines between fact and fiction; revealing, in the end, the only true antidote to thwart global annihilation. It is surprising that in the simplest principle, “love thy neighbor as thyself” that we find restoration, healing, transformation, and the ability to neutralize and reduce an ominous enemy to nothing. An amazing, must read for anyone who cares about our environment and the future of this earth.–Michele
