Primary biomolecular target for a homeopathic potency

The question is how a homeopathic potency or, in other words, a stereospecific water structure, is recognised in the body of the patient or the test organism. It is evident from the clinical and experimental results described in the foregoing Chapter II that homeopathic medicines are effective in man, mammals, amphibians, fishes, plants and bacteria. 

Potentized homeopathic drugs are capable of producing effects on both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. Prokaryotic cells are usually smaller in size (1 - 10 pm) than eukaryotic ones (5 - 100 pm). Membrane-bound organelles like mitochondria, endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi complexes etc. are present in eukaryotic cells but absent in prokaryotic ones. While eukaryotic cells have nucleus containing DNA with histone and non-histone proteins in chromosoms, prokaryotic cells have no nucleus and their DNA with non-histone proteins lies in nucleoid without any membranous envelope. However, both types of cells are covered by plasma membrane with some common features.
