Triiodothyronine, diluted according homeopathic techniques, modifies the programmed cell death of tadpole tail?s explants

Int. j. high dilution res; 10 (35), 2011
High Dilution is a solution beyond the Avogadro limits that, in the dependence of the applied succussion elicits a suppressive or a stimulant effect on a living cell, with a consequent generation of an oscillatory doseeffect curve. According to Bonamin et al. [1], ?Perhaps, the most enigmatic feature reg...
