    Couldn't the Asgard beam a symbiote out of a host?

    Something that I've been thinking about..

    Couldn't the asgard just use their matter transporter technology to "beam" out a Goa'uld symbiote from the host independently of the host. I'm sure that it can be modified to do so.

    It's something never tried out before it could work but the goa'uld symbiote could release poison to kill the host before being beamed out.

      Im not sure but they do have the technology to remove the symbiote without killing the host. Evidence by the episodes revolving around "Thor's Hammer."

        Well the Asgard can remove the symbiote and leave the host intact as you saw in Kendra. As for the matter transporter... it could work. I'm not sure that suddenly removing something that acts like an organ/immune system would be good for the host though.

          I've got a better suggestion. Do you recall that episode where Thor would protect the planet and that technology that sat at the gate and beemed them in to a cave. You could install one of those things at every gate and easily capture them.

            Yeah, that was Thor's hammer. That was written out because it would have been way to easy to kill a goa'uld that way - then it'd be no fun!

              i don't know if BEAMING it out is possible. Remember the symbiote wraps around the spinal cord, unless the asgard beam can be set to only take the symbiote out, it probally would end up taking part of the spinal cord out too, i'd think

                That's what I'm saying.. I believe an asgard beam could be modified to beam out just the symbiote itself.. it would be so quick that it would not have time to release toxins until it was too late.

                  Or they can beam the host away leaving the symbiote.

                    It seems like beaming a symbiote out of a host would be like taking eggs out of pancake batter.

                      Well the initial question was something that I had asked in a previous thread and someone had pointed out the second episode of season 1 "The Enemy Within". Removing the Goa’uld symbiote does not mean that they will be able to remove it out of the mind. So in Thor’s hammer the symbiote is not removed by teleportation rather that killing it. The problem there was that the host had to fight so that the Goa’uld would leave the mind before it died. If the host failed, well he/she would die too. The Tolan used a different method that I think was safer. Even the machine the used during the trial seemed to be able to separate one mind from the other. The were capable to remove the Goa’uld from the consciousness before removing the symbiote so the transference would be complete. On the other hand it might have been the symbiote choice not to remove the toxins since it knew that once removed from the host it would not be killed and thus allowing itself to be removed.

                          No there is a perfect explanation for the bad removal they did on Major Kawalski.

                          Remember when the doctor was going to remove the "tendrils extending up and into the brain".. that was the actual symbiote that was the vital part to be removed.. but the symbiote made the host jerk which made the doctor back off and think that cutting away the "dead husk" portion of it would make it go away. Remember that when he made the cut he left the top portion in the host.. that is the part that is actually controlling him! A fatal mistake, obviously.

                          It's the tendril, teeth, however u want to say it that is taking control of the human. They never cut that part out because of the distraction.

                          And remember at the end when Kawalski had his head partly taken off by the wormhole.. the head part of the symbiote (which is what they never removed) fell out of his head. So yes, if you beamed a symbiote out of the host in its entiretiy, I think that it might shock the mind at first of the host but it would not kill him or her. It would be a quick and easy way to remove the symbiote from the host.

                            no it would not be possible i think because the symbiote is attached to the head and if it was to be beamed out it might take a pieice of the brain with it possibly

                              Sure you could beam out the symbiote if the asgard sesors are accurate enough. You'd probably need to have the host/Goa'uld on the ship for it to work accurately enough. I don't think even the asgard could bean something so accurately at say a distance of 3,000km.
