Static Magnetic Fields Effects on Polysaccharides Production by Different Microalgae Strains

Biological Effects of Static Magnetic Fields

Effects of weak static magnetic fields on endothelial cells.

Pulsed electromagnetic fields (PEMFs) have been used extensively in bone fracture repairs and wound healing. It is accepted that the induced electric field is the dose metric. The mechanisms of interaction between weak magnetic fields and biological systems present more ambiguity than that of PEMFs since weak electric currents induced by PEMFs are believed to mediate the healing process, which ...

Behavioral effects of high-strength static magnetic fields on rats.

Advances in magnetic resonance imaging are driving the development of more powerful and higher-resolution machines with high-strength static magnetic fields. The behavioral effects of high-strength magnetic fields are largely uncharacterized, although restraint within a 9.4 T magnetic field is sufficient to induce a conditioned taste aversion (CTA) and induce brainstem expression of c-Fos in ra...

The modeling of induced current density in eyes from static magnetic fields produce by MR scanner

Introduction: Staff and patient Movement in static magnetic field MRI scanner induces current density in the human tissues, so cause biologic effects in people. The aim of this study was the Modelling of current density induced by moving individual with different velocities in static magnetic field of magnetic resonance imaging. Materials and Methods: current ...

Biological effects of 6 mT static magnetic fields: a comparative study in different cell types.

The present work was a comparative study of the bio-effects induced by exposure to 6 mT static magnetic field (MF) on several primary cultures and cell lines. Particular attention was dedicated to apoptosis. Cell viability, proliferation, intracellular Ca(2+) concentration and morphology were also examined. Primary cultures of human lymphocytes, mice thymocytes and cultures of 3DO, U937, HeLa, ...
