Section Basic Research on Zoological Models

Thyroxin was administered in succussed high dilution (30X, 10-30) to amphibian larves at the end of their metamorphosis from tadpoles to frogs. In the observed stage, the thyroxin level of the larves is comparatively high, and molecular thyroxin is well known to speed up metamorphosis. In contrast, under the influence of thyroxin 30X, metamorphosis slowed down (Endler et al 1994a,b, 1997, 1998a, Zausner et al 2002). This was found in independent studies in 5 laboratories.

The slowing down effect of succussed thyroxin dilution was even more marked, when the animals were previously hyperstimulated (intoxicated) with molecular doses of thyroxin (Zausner et al 2002, Endler et al 2003). Analogous observations were made when information of the succussed thyroxin dilution was transmitted through an electronic device, including digitized information storage (Senekowitsch et al. 1995, Endler et al 1995, 1997).

Section Basic Research on Botanical Models

As a repetition of a plant study from the beginning of the 20th century, a succussed high dilution of silver nitrate (24X) was administered to wheat seedlings. In consecutive series of experiments, wheat seedling development was highly significantly enhanced by the test dilution, compared to analogously prepared control dilution (Pongratz et al. 1994, 1998)
