Abstract
The reproducibility of experiments on homeopathic remedies raises a number of complex issues, one of which is discussed under heading of “investigator effect” (van Wijk, Smith, Walach). One possible factor of influence could be the emotional or mental state of the person preparing the potency: Is it conceivable for this to influence the transfer of information from a molecular mother tincture to a high dilution? This was investigated using the development of wheat seedlings as a bioassay. Generally a significant and consistent difference in growth between seedlings treated with 30x potencies of gibberellic acid and water-treated controls is observed with this bioassay (ECIM abstract 2009 by Endler et al.).
