Sorry, but the claim that Montaigner's research represents the scientific basis of homeopathy is simply false. He has identified a short lived and extremely weak effect of highly dilute solutions of some kinds of substance, but this is a long way form proving water memory which is in any case a post facto rationalisation to try to explain the principle if infinitesimals in a world which now understands that homeopathic dilutions have no statistical chance of containing a single molecule of the original material.

A scientific basis of homeopathy would require proof of the principle of similars and the principle of infinitesimals, plus proof of water memory, plus proof that this is then transferred to a delivery medium such a sugar pill, followed by proof that this can be transferred to the human body by ingestion and finally proof that this would cause some gross effect.
