The aim of the present study was therefore to establish an in-vitro model in which the effects of homeopathic belladonna or atropine dilutions could be determined on neurotransmitter-induced smooth muscle contractions. The experiments were carried out on isolated preparations of rat ileum under isometric conditions. Tonic contractions were induced by application of…
