General Appearance
Added 5 ml to 1 litter of water, shake 50 times then added to 4 litres of water. I used it with 5 L Gardena anual Vaporizer in the stairway,on the walls and window-sill and the doorsteps. Also tried adding about 5 bigger drops to 250 ml of water, shake 50 times then added to 4 liters of water...but now i used that in a flat where cockroaches appeared more frequently. I sprayed mainly on the ground everywhere, and on the tops of the wardrobes, in shoes containers. There were many bags full with clothes. Next day they told me that they saw cockroaches on the writing-desk. It works, as they move to those surfaces where the spray were not applied. (555)
Small weak plant that dry out quickly after dry hot periods (337)
Currently, we are testing Arsenicum 30C for ant control. We use companion plants to deter the ants - mints and oregano. (1810)
 
Roots
 
Stem/trunk and bark - capillary system
Arsenicum album stimulated shoot and radicle length compared to control in 12CH, 30CH and 60CH dynamisations. (1723)
The study made it possible to assess the positive effect of As,O, 45x on wheat seedling growth when the seeds had been previously poisoned with material doses of the same substance. The effect is limited to the stem, which showed significant recovery increasing with treatment time, whereas root length was not influenced by the homeopathic treatment. (1806)
 
Leaves
I've now been experimenting with a potted rose that threatened to die (summer). No obvious reason, but the leaves became yellow and dropped off, and the buds dried up. Twice I put down a pellet of Carbo vegetabilis and Arsenicum, both 30C, on the ground and watered over it. The leaves stopped falling and then new leaves appeared, and now there are even new buds! The effect of the homeopathic remedies strikes me as a miracle! (496)

Seed
A significant effect on germination rate was observed in ultra-high diluted (0.1%) homeopathic medicine of 200C (1789)
With ArA-13CH, significant differences in germination were observed (53.33%) ... During germination the best result in the radicle fresh and dry weight was recorded when applying ArA-13CH. (1865)
 
Notes and Academic Papers
Arsenicum album 45x significantly inhibited wheat shoot growth (–3%) compared to treatment with unpotentized water and water 45x (p = 0.011 and p = 0.037). Within the experimental series performed in this reproduction trial, the effects of Arsenicum album 45x prooved to be reproducible. The wheat seed species used did not seem to have a significant impact on the experimental outcome. .... The result of this replication trial is a reversal of the original study, since Arsenicum album 45x inhibited wheat shoot growth instead of enhancing it. Nevertheless, high homeopathic potencies may induce statistically significant effects in biological systems. However, the magnitude and direction of these effects seem to depend on yet unknown parameters. (1650)
Growth chamber experiments and a field trial were performed, using Brassica plants artificially inoculated with the fungus [alternaria brassiciola]. In growth chamber experiments, infection was significantly reduced by arsenic trioxide 35 decimal potency (As2O3 35 d) and in field trial by both As2O3 35 d and bentonite treatments. (1651)
(A): arsenic trioxide (As 35x and 35x diluted 1:5000) and Cuprum 5x induced highly significant inhibition of germination rate (-60%) vs. control. (B): As 35x and Cu 3 g/l induced a significant decrease of mean infection level (-50%). (C): in (i), a significant reduction of disease symptoms on heads was recorded for As 35x and Cu 3 g/l (-45%). In (ii) natural fungal infection did not occur due to dry weather conditions; physiological and nutraceutical analyses of healthy heads demonstrated that As 35x induced a significant increase of both head size and glucosinolate content. (1661)
In this study with yeast, no significant effects were found for any outcome parameter or any homeopathic treatment. Since in parallel experiments arsenic-stressed duckweed showed highly significant effects after application of potentized Arsenicum album and duckweed nosode preparations from the same batch as used in the present study, some specific properties of this experimental setup with yeast must be responsible for the lacking response. (1689)
The homeopathic treatment used in our experiments was arsenic trioxide diluted in a decimal scale and dynamized. Since the most significant results were achieved with the 45th decimal potency, both for As 45x and water (W 45x), we here report a brief summary of these results. (1691)
This research aimed at verifying the efficacy of some homeopathic and mineral treatments on Alternaria brassicicola/cauliflower interaction. Growth chamber experiments and a field trial were performed, using Brassica plants artificially inoculated with the fungus. In growth chamber experiments, infection was significantly reduced by arsenic trioxide 35 decimal potency (As2O3 35 d) and in field trial by both As2O3 35 d and bentonite treatments. (1698)
Some potencies (As2O3 45x and H2O 45x) induced a relevant increase in seedling growth and/or a variability decrease. Diluted As2O3 did not induce any significant results. (1711)
Arsenicum album presented the same behavior as Sulphur drug, with the difference that it increased the fresh biomass in 24 and 30CH dinamizations. (1712)
Macroscopic analysis demonstrated that plants treated with homeopathy showed less spots than plants treated conventionally. Furthermore, homeopathic preparations induced shoot growing, better pattern of vegetative growth and less defoliation. (1745)
