The article, Elementary Electric Dipoles, by Ian N. Marshall recognizes that fundamental particles we know are electric monopoles and/or magnetic dipoles, but dark matter might contain the converse particles. Light electric dipoles, like neutrinos, could be abundant yet elusive. They would be attracted into polar substances (e.g. water) and strong electric fields, (e.g. in cell membranes), where they would alter dielectric constants. Experiments on five common substances after connection to a supposed biological source of these particles at field gradients of up to 8kV/cm confirmed these predictions.
