Abstract:
While getting ultra los dosages in serial dilutions interactions between a substance and impurities of a solvent occur parallel with diminishing of concentrations. The concentration of impurities in high dilutions prevails the calculated concentration of substrate. Experiments show that different concentrations of compounds of impurities in a solvent correspond to different substances in different dilutions, including < 10(-24) mol/l. While dissolving three components--a solvent, impurities and a substance--participate in two processes: changing of concentration and changing of composition. Changed chemical composition of impurities of a solvent reflects specificity of physicochemical properties of a dissolving substance and is the molecular basis for biological activity of solutions with a concentration lower than 10(-24) mol/l.

Principles of Drug Action
Drugs can be agonists or antagonists. Like the endogenous ligands, agonists always bind and activate the target to produce a cellular response. Agonist binding induces a conformational change which in turn...
