title: [Effects of lowest levels of drugs--a contribution to homeopathy research].
abstract: After oral administration of homoeopathically prepared low-dose-amounts of Conium and Mercury phosphate to male Wistar rats enzymatic parameters were investigated in three subcellular compartments of the liver under blind conditions. 1. After seven single application of the substance amount referring to a D8 potency a maximum effect could be detected for both agents. 2. The relation between agent and magnitude of the provoked effect is not linear. 3. The importance of these results is discussed and integrated into a general context.
