Modification of 4 Mhz N.M.R. Water Proton Relaxation Times in Very High Diluted Aqueous Solutions

Nanosized solvent superstructures in ultramolecular aqueous dilutions: twenty years' research using water proton NMR relaxation

“…Preliminary studies at 4 MHz 17,18 Defining the experimental conditions for reproducible results: Proton relaxation is extremely sensitive to paramagnetic contaminants, among these atmospheric O 2 is the most common. Uncontrolled PO 2 levels during the preparation of samples might drastically affect the NMR measurements.…”

“…Note that the restriction of the analysis to the 6e15c and 9e15c ranges totally ruled out any potential interference from the most concentrated sample 3c. These results were revisited in the subsequent 1997 paper 18 where we applied discriminant analysis, a multivariate statistical procedure that enables the existence of different groups (here the three types of solutions) to be extracted and represented on a 2D-or 3D-graph.…”

“…-Preparation of samples and controls within half-a-day per series -Preparation of samples in sterile and dust-controlled conditions, under a laminar-flow exhaust hood -Agitation by a 25-s vortexing at maximal rate (or by a 14-s vertical stroker for one study) -Simultaneous preparation of controls, in strictly similar conditions, for each level of dilution -Several independent series, roughly on a monthly interval, with new batches of solvents -Random permutation of the order of preparation of dilutions and controls from one series to another -Immediate storage of the prepared samples in flamesealed NMR tubes (and after filtration by 0.22 mm Millipore in the preliminary studies 17,18 ) -Blind measurements for most studies -Immediately consecutive measurements of T1 and T2…”

High Homeopathic Potencies Are Different from Potentized Solvent when Investigated with the REDEM Technology

“…Untreated bottles could be used be- Deviating from pharmaceutical regulation [14], all remedies except for experiment D were potentized with ABD, because the required EOH would distort the REDEM readings [18]. This may explain the results of experiment D. For the initial experiment potencies of triturated SiO2 were chosen because of the remedy-control differences seen with it in the highquality [11] NMR experiments of Demangeat et al [20,21]. As dissolved mother tinctures, AuCl3 and AgNO3 can be liquid-potentized from the start [14].…”

Experimental study of homoeopathy in allergology: 2) Biological Studies

“…Their purpose was to analyse variations in the T1 and T2 relaxation times of water, looking for any variation in its organization. Signi®cant differences have been observed between high dilutions of silica and solvent 46 and con®rmed on dilutions of manganese and histamine; 47 these results are paradoxical, as they suggest a loss of structure in the free (unbonded) water, in the high dilutions. The rise in T1, greater than pure water in high dilutions, is very paradoxical since it suggests that the structure of the hydrogen bonds in breaking down and that the dynamics of the free water in the high dilutions are changing.…”
